Dear Mr Sandy.
Is there any chance that the instancing issue can be reviewed so that flight transition is seamless?
Thanks heaps

Dear Sandy and Frontier Development
At which point does it become embarrassing to have PowerPlay give ranking scores above 100%? So far it's been going on since October 5th 2017 - at least that's the first time I bug reported it.
Basically I'm wondering if there's any point in even continuing reporting bugs for PowerPlay, including the glaringly obvious ones that should be fixable with a server-side patch?
While I'm at it - can you please for the love of Spaceloach and the remaining hair on my commander's head give us the exact formula used to calculate the standings? Currently it looks like the most important thing in the standings is to have expansions, which for quite a lot of powers is just about the dumbest thing they can do, which means it's rewarding commanders and communities for trying to wreck their own powers.

Wow - pages and pages of grumbling and feature requests with about 5 actual questions on 3 chapter 1 hidden in there. GG community!
Question: when is the 3.0 trailer due?

Is there any chance of adding in a tiny feature that, upon hovering over a book marked system (etc) it tells you what you named that bookmark?
I have tonnes of bookmarks, but... I don't know what the one right next to me is, and would have to click every book mark I have, to find that one!

Q. In 3.0 Beta, when entering a system the throttle is automatically set at zero %. Why has this been changed? The lack of past forum posts suggests that the current entry method isn't an issue. The majority of players who have played Beta & commented don't like the zero throttle entry & are asking for an option button to override this change, will this be granted?
On Lavecon 2017 during the QA panel I asked FD top brass (Sandy, Steve, Adam and many others were there) a fairly basic question about volcanism (bigger body, more geysers?), they said nobody that actually knows is there, but I felt they said they will try to answer that when back in the office. That was in June 2017, and I heard nothing since then ( I have send PM or two to Ed). So I feel they owe me, and I will ask a questions whenever I get the chance, Beyond or not
Questions:
Planets looks great now. But and it's a BUT, there is still the awful 'dark square' thing thats been going on since 2.0 What gives, dude? What gives?
Do planets take advantage of other light sources other than the main star?
Do planet colours alter depending on the colour of the main star / system lighting?

Are there any plans for a fighter that can rival the FDL for shield tanking? Or at least a fighter that's got the weapons to overcome it's massive shields?
When do we get a (better) GUI to compare and/or switch modules and loadups for our ships? Currently it’s a real pain to switch modules between ships or our store.

Are some plans for allow NPC crew use cockpit seats during 2018? (for make cockpit to be alive most of time, instead how it is now when are other seats used only in 1% of play time during multicrew).
Are some plans for allow NPC crew survive ship destruction? (for salary which they got paid in some cases they can buy fully fleshed vette or cutter ...)

Perhaps its because fd have done an excellent job of comprehensivly detailing and explaining the new features. but no. It is the children that are wrong.
Thanks for taking questions, hugely appreciated. Mine is…
When the Bulk Passenger missions algorithm was disabled due to excessive payments it was stated that you would attempt for it to be re-implemented for Beyond Chapter 1 live release. Would it be possible for this algorithm to be applied to the Commodities Market & other activities also otherwise it renders most game activities irrelevant from a monetary perspective. Many thanks.

Preserve our NPC crew by,
1. Adding them to the rebuy screen at a fixed sum based on rank under a search and rescue fee, (not forgetting how much they cost when doing rock all when trading ect).
2. If broke a reduction in their rank by 1 for a safe return.
You know it makes sense.[haha][haha]

Will the next update give us Space Legs?
Space Legs can't come soon enough!
The sooner the better! [yesnod]

Fixed in current beta
When will we be able to see our hired NPC's sitting in the cockpit, beside us?
This should have been a thing from the beginning.

When will you give us a decal generator?
It would be great to use our personal decals.

People can of course flood this thread with any requests they like but don't forget, it's a "Beta discussion livestream" so I think you're wasting your time asking questions outside of that agenda.
