Distances screen

Market Inquirer adds an interface screen (f4) that shows the distances in system and an interface screen that shows the markets (prices and quantities) of the main station and selected stations closest to the player. Stations selected (if present) are

Interface screens are always available when docked to one of the selected stations and if ASC is installed, then in every station.

The markets of the aforementioned stations can also be viewed in-flight by using the purchaseable, primable MFD (Multi-Function Display) equipment. Different commodities can be browsed in an MFD by priming the equipment and pressing n or b.

If there are more than six stations to show the markets of, the inquirer uses multiple pages for the information. Pages can be switched by choosing "swap".

If you want to add a station to the list of selected stations, you can add one of it's roles to the this.$inquirerStations list of this oxp or you can add the role "inquirer_station" to the station's roles.
