CMDR Dashboard

CMDR Dashboard puts an orange cockpit display for Elite Dangerous on your CORSAIR XENEON EDGE: pips, fuel, the status lights and your route at a glance, live while you fly. No mod, no companion app: it reads the files the game itself writes for tools like this.

The cockpit

Flight mode in big type (supercruise, normal space, hyperspace, docked, landed, glide), the FSD (charging, cooling down, mass locked), fire group, the panel you have open, legal state and HUD mode

Pips as three columns of four, in half pips, the way your distributor counts them

Fuel: the main tanks against the most seen in them, the reservoir, low fuel and fuel scooping

Sixteen status lights: landing gear, cargo scoop, hardpoints, lights, night vision, silent running, flight assist off, shields, mass lock, overheating, danger, interdiction, FSD charge, FSD cooldown, FSD jump and supercruise

The destination and the next jump, with jumps left and the light years to go

Near a planet: heading on a tape, latitude, longitude and altitude

Cargo against the size of your racks, with limpets, stolen and mission cargo

It follows you

Deploy the SRV and its own lights take over: handbrake, drive assist, turret, high beam and more.

Step out and the suit shows oxygen, health, temperature, gravity and your weapon, with medkits, energy cells and grenades from your backpack.

Board again and the cockpit comes back.

The pages

Route: every system ahead with its star class, the stars you cannot scoop, neutron stars and white dwarfs marked

Cargo: every line in the hold

Modules: power drawn in total and by priority, and every module with its slot and power

On Foot: the suit, where you are, the backpack and the ship locker

On the Edge

Choose any size in iCUE, across or upright. Show the whole dashboard with page tabs, or one page per widget, and place several.

Touch: tap a tab to turn the page; tap a long list to see its next rows.

Hide your credit balance with one switch, and use your own text, accent and background colours.

It says what is missing instead of going blank.

What you need

Elite Dangerous on Windows (Horizons or Odyssey). No mod and no Stream Deck needed.

iCUE 5.51 or later and a CORSAIR XENEON EDGE.

Start the game once before you place the widget, so its folder in Saved Games exists. If you placed it first, remove and re-add it or restart iCUE.

The route shows once you plot one; cargo rack sizes show once you open the Modules tab in the right-hand panel.

What it does and does not do

It reads Status.json and the small companion files the game writes.

It shows what the game writes to those files. Your ship's name, hull and the current system's name are not in them, so they do not appear.
