Yeah, thats correct, you get paid for the materials you deliver, so TECHNICALLY you only lose your claim and the 25mil
I have the Cr and I don't mind hauling....and your time investment!
Sweet! Can't wait to move into my Iceteroid – Supermancave ™.
Going at it alone, so wish me success Me Hearties!
..And may your building efforts succeed as well CMDRs! o7

just a friendly advice -> it is MUCH more feasable (for Solo Cdr) to do the initial colonization with an Outpost - as for the first Port there is the 4 weeks time limit.
Afterwards you can take all the time you need to establish larger Stations (which Kind ever....)
@Paul_Crowther
For us as a pmf on the edge of the bubble that has been there since beta this colonization feature is not so positive. the systems we wanted were taken by random cmdrs not part of our pmf. They used our pmf to colonize and seem to have been quicker online. Now we're getting more BGS work to do.
Did the dev team think of the possibility that this colonization can be used by individuals to troll pmf's by snatching the systems around them and make them as bad as can be?
Was it known to ED partners and the likes how wide the colonization range would be before it went live and why was this info withheld from the rest of the customers?
Is it true that basically you can work your ass off to colonize towards a certain system you want to architect for months, only to have it snatched away from you at the last moment by somebody else?
Are you planning on building safeguards to prevent that from happening?
We hope to hear from you soon,

Hey Frontier...ya gotta do something about these CMM COMPOSITE numbers, PLEASE!!!!! They're too rare and we need WAAAAAY too many. Can you tweak it so that the stations produce more or make us require less?
Not much to be made because there's no CMM Composites anywhere, the Bubble is being stripped of them at a rate faster than they can be replenished!
Excellent point. Very frustrating that random commanders are (ab)using my pmf to colonize systems that we for bgs-reasons do not want to be colonized. It can also bring us into conflict with neighbouring pmf's with whom we have a friendly relationship.
Man these material amounts are brutal! If any of you bored space truckers want to help me out, feel free:
Scorpii Sector DL-Y c18
Edit:
Here are the prices the colonizing ship pays (I think):

Maybe I can return the favor someday, somehow..
I agree, if anyone can help that would be great. I'm at HIP 78979
5,999 allegedly.
There's nothing they can do to stop you, so I wouldn't worry about it.
If they really don't want to be in that system then they can work the BGS to put another faction in charge, then retreat themselves. Or they might say "hey, free system" and keep it. Either way you can just keep building the system, since the specific minor faction in charge won't make a difference to that side of things.
It was mentioned from the start that the minor faction that controls the system you choose to colonize from, will be the controlling faction in the system you are architecting. you're not claiming the system, you claimed to be the architect.
I think it's fair to say you might get some friction in the future; maybe prevent that by talking to them on their discord?
Excellent! Thx Ian. I'm really dumb when it comes to PP and BGS.
I must have missed that point. Well, if that is the case, then they should be grateful that I am providing them with a station for free! Just kidding. Maybe I'll extend my hand in greetings to them on Inara. Whatever happens happens.
I have many guns.
it's not about who has guns or not, it's about having prosperous relations with your selected neighbors.
