News Bonus Weekend: Trade & Engineering - Now live! (24/05 to 30/05)

I don't know if this is a con but I've been engineering my Corvette for weeks now and on every other module I did Level 1 Engineering usually did 1-2 rounds before fully done.
I just went to Palin for some Dirty Drives and doing level 1 took 6-7 rounds before I could start on Level 2!! Is this just an anomoly on Dirty drives or are FDEVs scamming us?

You are going to continue with this? OK, post a comment from Frontier on the Forum stating cargo delivery missions are not included. Then you win! Meanwhile I'm seeing an improvement in profits. The numbers don't lie. Explain that.

There is still a lot of random in the process, additionally if you haven't already got access to higher levels with an engineer you don't get the reduced number of rolls for low level upgrades.

The system state, BGS activity, ranks, etc. You know, all the normal things that affect mission payouts.
No doubt you'll come back to say none of those things have changed, but since you haven't seen a particularly large increase in perceived profits, I suspect what FDev have said is correct.
This is indeed a bug, please open a thread in the bug report forum about it asap, cheers. (Or add to any existing one as I think it's already known.)
If you're at Rank 5 with Palin this is a bug (in which case, report). At Rank 5 I have never known Level 1 to require more than one roll. Two is possible, anything more is borked.
But otherwise as another poster said it could just be a bit of bad luck during the xp-gaining process.

Hm, I'm in Colonia... but I'm seeing exactly the same prices for the well-known Haulage Missions as before and I've flown a bunch (?)
Around here, I also didn't see their numbers go up or anything.
For all I can tell, it's indeed just Trade (which is very obvious and notable... heck even bulk exporting Biowaste gave me 1000Cr/ton. Premium Poop
)

All light weight sensor recipes at Lori Jameson showing at full price, no material discounts appear to be applied.
Same goes for light weight life support recipes at Lori Jameson...No bonus weekend material discounts appear to apply.
It's not a win or loose thing to me. Take it up with FD. I could post FDs response but I choose not to. The question was asked on @Frontier_Help, find it yourself.
Did Fdev break the trading APIs to force players to use the in-game trading tools during the bonus week? EDDB commodity tools seem to be broken. Anyone else having issues with the EDDB trading tools?
Sorry but the in-game tools are too cumbersome and do not provide any insight regarding station supply, making every station visit a crap shoot. This is especially frustrating when it comes to community goals and supplies dry up for light years in all direction. Even in 2018, I can find supply and demand information without having to physically visit every store.

Funny, I had the same thought based on a similar experience. With Frontier's little weekend prank the data on EDDB.io is not only off, but is massively wrong. Stations that would show a high demand for certain commodities are now selling those same commodities -- and at an extremely low price. I went to two different stations with a particular commodity based on the data in eddb.io, and both times I would have lost money if I had decided to trade.I finally ended up using a different tool which was also inaccurate, but at least the inaccuracy was on the proper side of the ledger -- meaning that after 60 ly of wandering around i finally I did make a profit.
Its prank weekend..

Looks like an internal communication issue.
24/05-30/05 timeframe would indicate "Bonus week"
The Image and Text indicates "Bonus weekend"
Guess "weekend" won over "week".
(I was wondering a bit about that when I 1st saw the Announcement but didn't give that Detail too much attention)
-- edit --
For all I can tell, my G5 Blueprints are still on full discount as well.
