To the people saying they sit for hours inside a Starport to wait for it to work:

Do you literally sit in the Starport or do you relog, including relaunching the launcher? Just curious because those problems are often "healed" by a relog, and somewhere above Paul stated an instance change might be needed?

Relogged, exited to desktop, supercruise and back, high jump and back... 4hrs and an half of this , and I finally gave up.

I mean you asking this after seeing so many post and you think that all these ppl so stupid that they didnt try to relog?

Yes, I'm actually asking this because I'm 6k ly out, can't test it myself and didn't see a single post that said relog did it / didn't help 🤷‍♂️

Edit thanks @mobio (y)

There is hope, Commanders!

I couldn't find a contact near my target system... so I flew off and FSS'd a few of the brown dwarf systems nearby just in case one of them looked fun too. Nope, but... when I completed that loop, and came back to the system I was hoping to colonise from, the Contact had been enabled.

probably they are turning on one by one but at a very slow rate

After waiting for 4 hours, relogging about every 15 minutes, the colonization contact in my chosen claim system finally went active.

Although to be fair it came active when I flew to Deciat and back to check on the report someone else had the Deciat was live. Confirmed, Deciat's colonization contact is also live, although there were claimable systems in range of it. So it was flying away and flying back that actually let me confirm the contact was active, not relogging.

It's been 6 hours, and still I'm only finding non-operational colonisation contacts near enough to systems I would claim. This is really frustrating. It's out on the fringes of the bubble, but come on....

Working now, claim working, fly around until you find colonization contact active, around your future colony system

thank you fdev

If you could colonize anywhere, I'd agree. Not sure I like that solution either...or...if there were a cost premium based on distance? Maybe :)

The cost is already there, distance. Each jump of a FC... or time cost if you're going back and forth in a ship, is costing you.

It won't be easy colonizing a system thousands of LY from the bubble, the further it is, the higher the cost in terms of time or tritium, so no extra cost in terms of colonization beacon required.

If this helps:
  • I'm in one system that has two stations in it. One station has the colonisation contact, the other one has not.
  • If availible, try different stations in the sytem you are at, to double check.
