Elite Dangerous

Hi! I’m still trying to figure out what this game is all about. It’s like a big space sandbox. Given its sandbox nature, I think that third-party tools are one of our most valuable resources. I know that might be a controversial take — some may feel games should exist as a self-contained entity. I would agree with that wholeheartedly, but for those of us who enjoy a sandbox experience, there’s a demand for tooling much like you’d see in the real world for real-world tasks.

Useful Tools

Here are ones I commonly use:

  • INARA for finding where I’m going, and what I need.
  • Coriolis for attempting to build ships.

Useful References
