Ahyeh what?! I can't get it to load either....hmmmmm
Ok let's see what we can talk through here. Were you trying to forrage from it with your SRV or on foot? Were both ways failing for you (I actually don't think you can forrage from it on foot actually)
You are doing good! Now, if I may, before moving on you should really focus on those perf issues asap, because this is what most unhappy CMDRs really resent (I'm not one of them, but I do agree perf is an issue for basically everything that involves a big structure).
Would be very helpful if you would date these posts, please, as the forums do not that I can see. "Today, Tuesday, 6/7/2021 (or 7/6/2021 US date format), at approximately..."
Thank you for the update! Some of these appear to address issues which explain some recent behaviour we've observed, so good to see these coming through.
Positive that you have taken action on the repetitiveness of win/loss actions and their effects.
However, there is a big underlying problem, which is that the attack scenarios in their current state are broken and have never been fixed since May 2018 (over 3 years).
Megaship and space settlement problem with cargo eject. BGS's scenario broken since 18 May 2019
After more than a year and several reports and releases of the game, here we are again with the current version of Odyssey Patch1 PC 4.0 being released with the same old bug. Horizon version: REPORTED ON: MAY 18, 2019 6:21 AM - STATUS EXPIRED - https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/2083...
Is there any news on this?

All additional thanks to you super lot with sending through your feedback and letting me yabber on to you over here a bunch of times a week. Let's keep going!!!
I'm guessing people were unable to reach Elite in a week, so it has been "fixed"?
Both with SRV and on foot. Smashed them with the SRV turret from various angles to no effect. Got out and tried with my sniper rifle, also no effect.

With the "Rebalanced the faction influence effects from repeatedly winning & losing various scenarios at Installations & Megaships." fix be accompanied with a clearing or extension of the retreat state in Delphi? The controlling faction, Sirius Inc, has been doing monstrous work to keep above 1% and failing because of this bug. It's not fair that a faction loses a system due to a bug in your game. The other side of this literal bug fest is the lack of higher-level Thargoids in NHSS, which means that the AX players can only do damaged megaship missions if they want to have a challenge. Therefore, the megaships should be repairable, like stations, or offer lesser than AXCZ levels of Thargoid if they are to remain unrepairable. CZs aren't permanent, and therefore high level AX combat at megaships should not be permanent. Otherwise, any system with a megaship is a trash system to the controlling faction because they can't clear a CZ state with actions.

Looking at old posts on the merc ranking progression here and on reddit, I was just reminded that part of the issues that likely contributed to the slow progression was what appeared to be a bug in registering XP hits (as in some kills counted, others didn't. Some CZs/missions counted while many other times it just didn't add to the rank progression.)
Confirm if this was what was happening and/or is part of this fix? I mean I would hate for the rebalance to fail because the root cause was a bug that stopped valid xp hits from counting.

Different disciplines work on different elements of the game, Commander! The optimisation team will be focused on their part, server on theirs, gameplay on theirs and so on. Just because we managed to fix a few things driven by the server doesn't mean optimisation invesitgations were deprioritized
Just want you to know.The megaship fix is especially nice for the factions that have taken a beating due to the bugged NHSS spawns. Any progress on fixing that issue? I still haven't been able to do NHSS6+ in Horizons since odyssey has dropped, and it's essentially stopped me from playing entirely.

Lets wait and see if it's fixed for you first before worrying too much about the nitty gritty ah? Seems good for us but always appreciate your side!
Appreciate the thought but I really just want it to be fixed for you all at thie point, hehe.Yes I posted just above the direct question but still no answer. I hope they have done something...

Thanks Sally, the bringer of good news. :) Thanks also to the devs for fixing those issues.
That's odd, it loads just fine for me...Both with SRV and on foot. Smashed them with the SRV turret from various angles to no effect. Got out and tried with my sniper rifle, also no effect.

I've actually been speaking a fair bit about the NHSS issues today you know - read my mind. When I have more to share I'll let you know, but it's definitely on the back of my hand for sure.
Another great update, really good to see these flowing and so many pertinent fixes/adjustments.
Does anybody else have this odd glitch when crouching in the dark, like something reflecting on the helmet but it follows you around and doesn't stay in one place. I'll try and get a screen shot. Really annoying and don't seem to be able to get rid of it.

Thanks guys, keep up the good work. One question though, the restore/reactivate missions are no where to be found, is it intended like that or are we missing something?
