Several Functions Don't Work

[Kedzie]

I'm super hyped that I can ask AD-Astra to plot a course to the nearest raw or encoded material trader, or a tech broker!

However....Astra refuses to do anything when I tell her to plot a course to the nearest:
- manufactured material trader
- black market
- landing pad

The commands are recognized, but nothing happens. See video. I'm sure there are plenty other functions that also refuse to work, but I haven't gotten there yet...

If you are already in a system that has those locations then nothing additional will happen

Cramer Plant has a black market for example. (And also landing pads are present in the system)

And because of carriers, then sometimes the database gets *sligthly* out of sync (if a carrier was in a system when the data was last scraped and offered some facilities that were unique to it), then when the carrier left (but change hadn't been updated on our side) it would still show as being present in system (on the server side) when in fact... it isn't actually present.

Darn, good to know! Are there any plans of implementing function to target locations within the same system, i.e. stations?

Selecting *anything* directly in the System map is a crap shoot purely by keyboard press. It would require a bit of work on frontiers side to even *start* doing something like this (ie: we would ideally need a keyboard press to go "next / previous station / planet / settlement". And on top of that, we would also need feedback to work out *which* one we are currently targetting.

AND on top of that, There is nothing in the game that prevents multiple settlements / outputs / stations in the same system from sharing the same name, so even that would make it potentialy unreliable.
