17.0.4 fixes some important issues reported since the launch with EDDN and other parts. See below for details.

Pack updates:

  • Voice pack 20 has been created with fixes.
  • German Voice pack 20 has been added.
  • InputToKey is a demo to show you how to remap joystick key presses to elite actions. The pack as it comes shows remapping some joystick inputs to control the power priorities of the ship. Written because I finally got fed up with CH PRO Control panel, and Thrustmaster control panel, which continually stopped working whenever windows did some random update.

Warning:

If you're using a laptop, with a built in APU and GPU, make sure you tell the system to use the GPU for EDD. See https://www.howtogeek.com/351522/how-to-choose-which-gpu-a-game-uses-on-windows-10/ Lots of APUs appear to have buggy or incomplete openGL implementations.

Major Features:

  • SPANSH is now supported throughout the program.
    Where you could do an EDSM lookup, you can do a SPANSH one instead
    Buttons in panels turning on EDSM now allow you to turn on EDSM, Spansh, Both or Spansh first, then if fails, try EDSM
    We recommend Spansh for star data.

  • 3DMAP has been reworked and improved https://youtu.be/ki8ECcmEkn4
    With the Spansh data, the stars are now coloured to the star type
    You can add overlays to the map - EDAstro images are available for overlaying - and any other from the web or from your drive or built in icons. You can mark areas of the map yourself.
    The stars are now texture bitmaps
    Clicking on stars is improved
    Right click menu improvement
    Galaxy objects from the EDAstro Galactic Expedition Catalog https://edastro.com/gec/ as well as EDSM ones

  • Route find panel major rework https://youtu.be/zw_RlzX0yn4
    Support for importing SPANSH routes from his router. You can import these into the route grid and then use them in the surveyor to route find
    through the galaxy.
    Reworked UI
    Support for generating a expedition directly, or sending the route to the expedition tab for editing
    Quick direct router can avoid permit systems if using Spansh data

  • Spansh Station Panel added https://youtu.be/zw_RlzX0yn4
    Panel gets station data from Spamsh and presents it
    Filtering of results
    Find resources (commodities, outfitting, ships) across systems to find the cheapest price and where to find it.
    Find services across systems

  • Scan display panel
    Improved display - added atmosphere halo, added settlement dots to show there are settlements (if known) on a body
    Added more options to display Mass of planets/stars
    Signal Icons now show different images for geo/bio/both/general to aid immediately understanding of what is on a body
    Add an option to not show stars (with no planets) on the same line

  • Stats panel
    Add thargoid stats

  • Discoveries Observatory System
    For Search | Scans, we add new canned searches such as find bodies which could have Amphora organics
    Enhance the function system you can now do searches across bodies in the system - see Multiple* queries for examples of BodiesExprCount etc
    More in built functions, some allowing you to analyse property strings (IndexOf) and a new set which allow searching for properties across all bodies of a system.
    See https://github.com/EDDiscovery/EDDiscovery/wiki/Using-the-Search-Scans-Panel
