## Program doesn't send data to EDSM and others at startup
**You need to start EDMC *before* logging into the game.** When EDMC starts it
does look through the latest journal file, in part to set internal state, and
as a side effect to get to the end of the file, but it does *not* send this
data to any plugins, internal or third-party.
If the program did react to the latest journal fully it would risk re-sending
data just because the user had restarted it whilst playing the game.
We might look into making an exception for basic "current state" events like
"Location", but have no solid plans at this time.
If you encounter an issue with starting EDMC before the game then please
see [Reporting a problem](#reporting-a-problem).
## Doesn't auto-update and/or persistently gives “Server is lagging” error
This app uses Elite: Dangerous' log files to track the systems and stations that you visit. If you're running this app on a different machine from the Elite: Dangerous game, or if you find that this app isn't automatically tracking the systems that you visit and/or isn't automatically “updating” on docking (if you have that option selected), then adjust the “E:D journal file location” setting on the Configuration tab to point to the game's log files.
