Really glad that Fighter thing is getting fixed. Lets just hope that this update doesnt bring other surprisingly moneyspitting "discoveries" 
Patch Notes Fleet Carriers Update Patch 2 - Downtime and Patch Notes
- Thread starter Bruce G
- Start date
Im so happy the "EGG" children are so MAD!Thanks for the update. Finally I can paint my FC in company colours again
And special thanks for fixing the silly SSD exploit.
I appreciate that things can be locked down late Bruce, however the first we heard about a patch at all was a throw away comment last Thursday on the live stream to say "a patch is coming next week". Would it really have hurt you guys to put a post on the forum when you knew this was going to happen to say the same thing?
It does look like a good patch though, so thanks for that!

Really? My mistake then. I'm sure I've seen the logo being changed on my Nautilius... I'll need to double check!
Fixed the only reason I came back to test something worth my time.
I'm waiting for the loss of Fleet Carrier lock when entering supercruise to be fixed. That's my biggest irritation at the moment. Not a biggie really, but I'm still waiting for it.
Just to be clear. You did not think that zero communications on your community forums for two weeks a major issue?
Can I get a job at Frontier? Sounds like a free ride to me.
Ah well, see you next time.
OMG, why are you still complaining about something so trivial...these guys ARE WORKING FROM HOME, a small team, cut them a break if they were too busy fixing all the things we were whinning about to actually let you know AHEAD OF TIME!!! that they fixed everything for you...we should be sending them pizza or something
I doubt anything updated today will affect whether or not Tritium is available in Colonia at 4k/tonne.
The reason it's generally not is that:
- Tritium is only available from orbital refineries
- There are only 7 of those in the region, and two of them are under the same BGS control so there's really only 6.
- A price of 4k/tonne requires an unusual and short-lived BGS state. (Drought, Blight or Terrorism)
- The general activity patterns in the region tend not to cause those states, especialy not at the refinery stations.
I would expect based on previous patterns that the discount prices would be available for a few days every couple of months, on average.

We could have done, but it wouldn't have contained any information on what was changing.
When FD give us an exploit, take advantage and rejoice(If that is your thing). Don't go moaning about it being taken away
It's entirely possible the initial observations were incorrect about how it was acquired, but in that case it's probably something Frontier should have made clear to players sooner since some purchase decisions were driven by that. I remember at least one person ruling out certain liveries they'd otherwise like, based on this apparent connection.
As I said, one thing definitely needed going forward for carriers is allegiance decals, since many players were quite proudly displaying theirs.
Reminds me of the time that a NMS patch turned all my Korvax crew into Gek. I am still furious over that.
It's been reported many, many times. Might not be an easy fix.Hello Bruce, thanks for the update and there was an error i reported but i guess its not fixed
before jumping on to the supercruise yet, selected as the FC target and jump and you will see that a different FC is selected when the supercruise arrives.
will this be fix next time?

Would that involve a massive price crash as over-supply from the exploited mining of LTD's would surely indicate that the entire galactic population have 'diamonds on the soles of their shoes', making them worthless?
All I know is, I'd be happy to ship biowaste to agricultural worlds if it means we can settle one or two more Earth-Like planets in the future (even if that takes 1-2 REAL years). OR metals to Aegis if it means better Anti-Xeno guns.
