[FEATURE] Canonn patrols for signals not recorded in Canonn DB #86

Closed VMSrefugee closed 1 year ago

VMSrefugee commented 3 years ago

The EDMC Canonn plugin says "0 out of 16 signals on 1 bodies have been scanned. Please complete the survey. Conditions are right for: Crystalline Shards", but which body is that?

There are 45 bodies in this system. Somebody knows which body might have Crystalline Shards, but they're not telling.

Going the the web site detail page for this system allows me to exclude 6 bodies. The other 39 are in the temp/gravity box to investigate. https://tools.canonn.tech/Signals/?system=Myoidia%20UL-L%20c21-16

Mousing over each of them in the in-game system map gives me no clue which to visit. I don't see anything in EDDiscovery details for each body, though tbh if it's not super obvious there I mighta missed it.

I'd kinda hope the plugin woulda said (at least on mouseover or something) which body (or bodies) it wants me to investigate.

Thanks for your help! Love the plugin!

The Signal data used by the patrols is gathered from Spansh and may not exist in our database yet. The way to get it in the database is to use your FSS to scan all the bodies and then go to the body and surface scan it. NB: FSS doesn't generate an event even though it is visible on your hud. Only a Body Scan will generate a Biology Signal event.

I could include some code in the patrol extract to reconcile the two databases but it would slow things down and be an ever increasing drag on resources. The other alternative is to do a one-off reconcililiation and then they should be kept in sysnc by our process monitoring EDDN
