You can pretty much find everything you need.
NVIR // Tools
Tools
Useful tools and trusted resources to make life among the stars a little easier.
System Distance Calculator
Measure the straight-line distance between any two systems, using coordinates from EDSM.
Open →Biological Signals
Filter every scannable organic by star, body, atmosphere and gravity — and see which ones are worth the landing.
Open →Rank Progress
Turn a rank and a progress bar into the credits you have banked, and what every rung above it still costs.
Open →Shopping List
Build a cart of blueprints, experimentals, and tech-broker unlocks — materials and engineers totaled.
Open →Web
For plotting courses around the galaxy.
Another ship outfitting calculator. NVIR prefers this to Coriolis.
For finding mining hotspots, routes, and similar lookups. Nice to have.
Apps
Each responsible commander should have this. It can update third-party sources from your logs — market status and the like — so everyone can find stuff on Inara, Spansh, and the rest.
Recommended Plugins
Modern OverlayDraws plugin data on the game HUD — BioScan radar, NeutronDancer routes, and the rest.
NeutronDancerSpansh neutron and galaxy plots inside EDMC. Copies the next waypoint to your clipboard.
NavRouteRemaining jumps, fuel stars, and boosts along your current plotted route.
ExploDataRequired backend for BioScan and Pioneer. Install it first — it has no UI of its own.
BioScanGenus predictions after FSS, species and values once you map, plus a plant radar near the surface.
PioneerBodies worth scanning or mapping, star types, stellar phenomena, and estimated cartographic value.
EDMC-CanonnGuardian sites, Thargoid activity, and codex signals.
Really eases the pain for engineering. Helps you track required materials and plan blueprints. Again, best on a tablet.
Sort of a ship AI. You can do pretty much everything here — worth checking out. It likes talking too much, but you can configure that.
Great for exploration and exobiology. Plotted courses — or imports from Spansh — display system information and possible earnings.
A second-screen companion for personal status, maps, and notifications. Best used on a tablet or spare display.
