Glad I could use it! I did get the military composite on both my Cutter and my Python. That was a significant chunk of change I saved there!

Too bad it's over, though. After all the work that had been done in the CG, you would expect the discount to run for a little longer than that, otherwise, why bother?

I have - it says there's a 15% discount in the Lin Rui systems and/or a 10% discount in the founders world (Sol). I've been to both places and there's no discounts to be had whatsoever. I even checked LFT 37.

Hi,
Discounts won't show up in game with a big flashing neon sign, the prices will simply be lower.
Compare prices with the wiki and you'll find the discounts are there, if not please provide a screenshot or two of the shipyards since the Founders world one has never been broken so far and that'd make the headlines

Edit: Founders world is not Sol. Founders world is "Shinrarta Dezhra -> Station Jameson Memorial", can only be accessed if Elite ranked or a Kickstarter Backer.

Something is wrong. Ray Gateway in Diaguandri (part of Li-Yong Rui) always had the 15% discount. Did you check that specific station?

Founders World is NOT Sol. Founders World is Shinrarta Dezhra, specifically the Jameson Memorial station. You need the Founders permit to get there, though.

I've read 2 posts from a thread about the CG in LFT 37 that the 30% discount was over.

LFT 37 moved to ended discounts, if anyone finds it's still ongoing let me know. I'm currently 40,000Ly from Sol and a bit stuck trying to cross a galactic arm so can't check.

Just stopped by (LFT 37 [Onne Gateway]) at 1032 17 FEB GMT date time & the prices for outfitting are back to normal, so it would appear that the 30% outfitting discount is over :(

Edit:
here are some screenshots I took of some of the prices for outfitting at LFT 37 [Onnes Gateway]:

Thanks for checking there! ;)
Guess I need to head to Li Yong-Rui to get 15% on the Military Grade Composite.
Not sure if Edmund Mahon discount (Hull reinforcements and cargo racks price -20%) does apply to Bulkheads too...

No problem, was curious myself.

...as far as I saw last time when I checked the Edmund Mahon discount (Hull reinforcements and cargo racks 20%) at a Edmund Mahon controlled system...the bulkheads were normal price ...but feel free to check it out :D ...I'm currently away outfitting a new FDL to test it out for the combat CG in Okinura, I'll see if I can check that out as well....

Edit:
Just checked at Ining system [Bombelli Dock] ...the Hull reinforcement & Cargo racks are the 20% discount (Edmund Mahon) ...but the Bulkheads prices are still normal.
Inning system is "Controlled" by Edmund Mahon currently...

Hi,
I saw that on the changelogs but I thought they were at normal prices... or have I missed something?

Edit: In fact from what I read it's 20% more expensive there making it the opposite of an active discount XD
