what do you think about portals or wormholes in elite?
You have EDScout, that see if your current route have been submited to EDDB. Don't know if keep working.

What do you use to enhance your experience?
I can’t believe no one has mentioned ED Scout yet. It’s an incredibly helpful tool for exploration. Here is a short review video of the tool.
-
Fighter jets show the direction the plane is travelling on the HUD, would this be a useful feature in E:D (especially low-altitude flying)?

Simple question
Pretty sure edscout may have something you are looking for. It tells you the value and some quick info about planets
-
Got my Cobra and 750k. Reckon I'm good to go exploring now.
just pick up a detailed surface scanner and fuel scoop then you're set, ED Scout is something worth considering too.
-
Is it worth doing the scans?
If you are on PC, there is a 3rd party tool that really helps with this called ED Scout. It will tell you the approximate value of a planet before you surface scan it so you don't waste your time scanning worthless planets. It's really great. Here is an EXAMPLE of a system in ED Scout that I scanned recently. The list of planets at the top are "high value targets" that the tool recommended I scan. The list of planets below that are the ones I actually scanned. You can download the tool and learn more HERE.

This system I scanned came to a value of over 8 mil! Now is a really good time to turn it in with the current CG bonus of x3 value to exploration data.
The app is a bit flakey and stops working pretty regularly. To fix this, just close it, and then relaunch it. You can get it HERE.

Exploring Credits
ED Scout is much more compact and less featured, but has the ability to display output to a tablet or phone, in case you don't have a second monitor. https://github.com/joncage/ed-scout

Memory Leak when using the Game Porting Toolkit? (details in comments. Elite Dangerous.)
The Elite Dangerous Market Connector, and associated plugins, work great in Whisky. It'll open Safari upon initial launch to authenticate. After that, just launch it after the game and it'll connect with no issues whatsoever. It will not work if you launch it before the game.

Looking for 3rd party tools for exploration!

Favorite Third-Party Tools?
EDDiscovery or EDMC to update the EDDN and have useful information at your fingertips. I prefer EDDiscovery, hugely useful for explorers. Link your account to keep your info up to date and keep the community up to date to allow nearly all these other tools to work.

How can I make my FC discoverable by Inara (and others) when in deep space?
Always run EDMC https://github.com/EDCD/EDMarketConnector when you play. It will upload market and other data for your fc as well as any other station/settlement you dock at.

NEWB starting at -1 on this!
YouTube, Reddit, and the forums are your friend, there are also many the third party sites and applications available to help you to navigate and locate facilities within the game. The most commonly recommended site is Inara and the applications recommended to support it are ED Market Connector or ED Discovery. The applications send market data that Inara use to keep track of the trade markets, they include search functions which help you to find what stations have what services, including what ships and modules are available. Inara can also track your commander data to if you make an account and link it to your Frontier account.
