EDDLite - What is it?

You play Elite Dangerous and have heard of EDDLite (or EDDiscovery) - and ended up here. So what is it?

In short it's a 3rd party tool that can track your Elite Dangerous travels, combat, trading, rank etc. It shows you a log of events, shows you a precise of your current situation.

It allows you to upload this data to the following sites automatically to keep them updated with your exploits

  • Inara
  • EDSM
  • EDDN
  • IGAU

It also allows you to go directly to Corolis or ED Shipyard with your current ship build.

It has a screen shot converter to allow the .bmp files to be converted to other formats automatically.

EDDLite is Elite Dangerous Discovery little brother - it builds on EDD technology but provides a simpler and smaller solution for commanders wishing to have just these features available. It also used much less memory since it has a lot less features. Data storage is less than 1MB on your C drive.

EDDLite works on the PC. Unfortunately Frontier does not or cannot support the API required on XBOX or PS4 to output journal entries to the PC for us to use.

Usage

Download and install the .exe - run it. It will scan your journal folder and show you the commander data

The main user interface consists of:

Commanders list

List of all commanders found on your PC. Double click on a commander to edit their data and enter the information that Inara/EDSM etc need.

Status area

Current status of your commander

Log Area

Showing you events as they occur from EDD.

ScreenShot

Use the Config menu to configure the screenshot system.

Other Features

EDDLite supports DLL plugins - more on that to come.
