I know, there are many tools like this, some with much more features and much more sophisticated. But they all have one thing in common: They are built for Windows (except for EDMC).
As I'm on kubuntu since early 2025, and most of the tools work in a decent way, at best, when run in a wine environment, I decided to create my own, plattform independent tool. So here it is: Elite Dangerous eXploration Dashboard
EDXD provides insight into the details of the currently scanned system.
Currently that is:
- Mineraldeposits per body
- Bio-/Geo-signs per body
- show potential types of biosigns, if any; update on DSS and on foot sampling
- Value of scanned bio-signs
- Atmospheric composition
- G-force
- FSS, mapping, geo, bio progress of current system
- Sortable by deposit density and other things
- Filter to display only minerals you're currently looking for
- Detail panels for selected (in the table) and targeted (in-game) body
- Show estimated scanned/mapped value
- Load all available journal files to create system cache
- Pin your current location on a planet's surface and track the distance to that point
- min. distance for genus diversity in detail panel. Also shows distance to previously scanned specimen of that genus.
- register first discovered/mapped/footfall by others or self (in-game, not EDSM)
Get available commandline parameters with ed-eXploration-dashboard --help
To use EDXD, just run without any parameters. On first run you can set the path to your journal files in the configuration.
If you like my work and want to support me via PayPal.me (see link below) it's much appreciated. EDXD and all it's features will always be for free.
