Thought I'd try out the new download. On my way from Eurybia to Socho, just jumped into HR 913 & find nothing showing on screen or in radar. Dropped out of SC, still nothing, went back to SC & did a Discovery scan & now the bodies show up, but I'm 81.0 ls away from the main star, 191 ls from B & C- is this a bug already??
 
Okay, so it seems like the 4x6 octal (?) numbers that they scan are grouped into very few triples, which repeat all the time. So far I have found:

164 157 162 A
151 141 040 B
156 000 000 C
040 156 156 D
164 141 151 E
143 145 162 F
154 040 163 G
150 165 154 H

They seem far to much clumped around 150 in order to be random, or even drawing instructions, I feel.
 
So, err, not really sure I *want* to go out there after reading these messages!

Getting a sense of friendly/non-friendly encounters here - if anyone can get shots of that logo above the centre to see if they're the same in both cases that'd be interesting ;)

If you mean not seeing hud icons or system map after after honking the discovery scanner - when the servers are getting heavy load (like now) it can sometimes take a while for scans to show up.

If you mean the actual physical stars were missing then yeah sounds like a bug
 
Tried converting from octal/decimal/ASCII:

Octal:
163 163 040 150 165 154
163 163 040 163 163 040
164 141 151 150 165 154
164 141 151 164 162 145

Decimal:
115 115 32 104 117 108
115 115 32 115 115 32
116 97 105 104 117 108
116 97 105 116 114 101

ASCII:
ss hul
ss ss
taihul
taitre

Looks like they're saying something...
 
Got a few encounters here as well, in the pleiades region, They seem to be everywhere...
The first one I bumped into, too happy and wanted to give a hug, not a piloting error at all ^^ , he didn't like it...

The second one shot me on sight, I fought back, but once down to 9% hull and a critical canopy, I could escape.

The third one was more peaceful at first, I left him a canister of Tactical data, he scanned me and the canister, then turned red and attacked me. I managed to get a few kilometers away, then came back. The Thargoid ship jumped, leaving a wake I scanned.

So far, I didn't learn much, and already had repairs for around 1 Million ;)
