My Pathway
Personalized
Choose the activities you care about, what you want to improve, and your current experience. My Pathway turns that into focused next steps without hiding the rest of Elite.
Open the iPad HUD Controller when Mongrel HUD is running on the same local network, or grab the current Windows HUD and Scout builds. The HUD shortcut uses the stable local address advertised by the desktop companion.
Scout is a lightweight EDMC plugin for approved Mongrel members. It sends BGS fields to Wolf BGS Control in Mongrel systems, fresh public station-market snapshots to Trader's Outpost, and limited eligible trade-profit results to Mission Control.
1. Install EDMCUse a working Elite Dangerous Market Connector installation on the machine that can read your live Elite journal folder.
2. Read the READMEDownload and unzip Scout, then read the top-level README.md before installing. The plugin folder itself can be treated as a black box.
3. Reveal the plugin folderIn EDMC open File → Settings → Plugins → Open. Use the folder EDMC opens rather than looking under Program Files.
4. Copy the MongrelScout FOLDERCopy the whole extracted MongrelScout folder into the plugin folder EDMC revealed; do not copy individual files. Restart EDMC, then enter your Scout token.
5. Test a Mongrel systemEnter or jump within a system where the Mongrels are present. A successful BGS upload shows Updated <system> in EDMC.
6. Refresh a marketVisit the actual station or port. When Elite supplies its Market data, EDMC should show Market updated: <station>. Simply entering the system does not refresh station prices.
Scout is enabled and has a token. It is waiting for a qualifying journal event.
Updated <system>
The current BGS snapshot was accepted by the Mongrels server.
Already newer
The server already has a newer observation for that system. Nothing is wrong.
Not assigned: <system>
Your Scout token is restricted and that system is not assigned to it. Contact squad leadership if you should be covering that system.
Token rejected
The token is invalid or no longer active. Ask squad leadership for help.
Market updated: <station>
That station's commodity prices, supply, and demand were sent directly to Trader's Outpost.
Scout rate limit reached
Scout has hit its upload safety limit. Leave it running and try again later.
Upload failed
EDMC could not reach the Scout service. Check the network connection first.
Privacy: Scout does not upload your Commander name, cargo inventory, credit balance, ship build, materials, complete missions, or general travel history. Public Market snapshots contain station/commodity data. Qualifying trade-sale activity uploads contain limited sale/profit metadata; purchase-origin lots stay local in EDMC. For a VM or second-PC setup, the important requirement is reliable live access to the Elite journal folder; a direct LAN share is preferable to cloud-sync folders.
Tokens are managed by leadership. Members can use the token they are issued, but token creation, system assignments, access scope, and revocation stay in Wolf BGS Control.
Your account can manage approved squad tools. Daily Orders publishing is currently online; additional management controls will appear here as they are built.
This dashboard is designed to grow with PvP integration, additional member tools, and the Mongrel AI assistant without requiring another portal redesign.
