About 20:00 BST I got a few connects in online play. I managed to hyperspace to another system fine. However, when I dropped out of jump near a station, every time I got a connection fail. Exiting and reopening allowed me to reconnect to before I started the jump, but it kept failing. It looked really busy in the area... maybe overloaded?
About 20:30 I went for Solo play and I've been playing for the past 1.5hrs without issue. Good show chaps!
I've not bothered doing any trading yet, the bulletin boards seem pretty lucrative just doing errands. At one point I got 4 contracts for the same destination. Earnt about 35k without much effort. Not as much skill and thought in that, maybe the bulletin boards need to be toned down a bit?
