After EDMC restarts and replays the journal during catch-up, state['Modules'] is populated from any Loadout entries in the journal. However, plugins never see these historical events — only the synthesized StartUp event is forwarded. This means plugins that depend on receiving a Loadout event (e.g. Inara's shipswap handler, Coriolis CMDR) miss the current ship loadout after an EDMC restart. Fix: after synthesizing the StartUp event, also synthesize a Loadout event via self.ship() if state['Modules'] is populated. This gives every plugin the current ship loadout on startup without requiring any plugin-side changes.

Elite: Dangerous Market Connector (EDMC)
This application is only of use to PC players of the game Elite Dangerous (and its expansions). It won't work with PS4 or Xbox accounts.
It utilises the Journal files written by the game on the user's computer, together with data from the API Frontier Developments supplies in order to feed this data to various third party sites that the user may find useful.
See the Wiki documentation for more details.
