Documents text file spam #3495

Can you put the ship files used for the ship/loadout menu in a folder instead of just in documents? I have 168 files in my documents, all named something like "Anaconda.2024-02-22T14.55.29," and it's getting annoying. image

What makes you think that this is something done by EDDiscovery?

Minecrafter8001 commented 7 months ago

because the top of each file has

{
  "event": "Loadout",
  "Ship": "krait_light",
  "ShipID": 33,
  "ShipIdent": "MI-09K",

and the only app i have that would need to save this data is EDDiscovery

after looking at the code i belive i found why https://github.com/EDDiscovery/EDDiscovery/blob/b607f49397f2879e43d9a9635e03e6a8427b2f69/EDDiscovery/Forms/SafeModeForm.cs#L153 its related to backing up the DB

sorry for wasting your guys time

I can guarantee that this is not done by EDDiscovery. EDMC has such an option on the first page of its settings menu. You might want to make sure you're not running EDMC in the background with this export option enabled.

Indeed, if the EDMC output directory is set to your Documents directory, and its export option is enabled, then it will create exactly these files. https://github.com/EDCD/EDMarketConnector/blob/5419e2e47f30c4dbcfc22b53308187d0c033d286/monitor.py#L2226-L2308 Indent=2, check Filename pattern is {shipname}-yyyy-MM-ddTHH:mm:ss.txt, check
