Yes - it seems really easy right now to push factions into Investment (and non-Anarchy factions into Investment+Lockdown) with very little effort even allowing for the low system population.

Not clear yet whether this is permanent instability for colonised systems for some reason, or will go away over time as you build up population, wealth, security, etc.

Ah, right. All four factions in the system are investing, 2 Anarchy and 2 straight ones. Not sure whether I've ever seen all a system's factions of one mind before but that may just be a consequence of the new systems going live.
 
I haven't seen any state changes within my system (but also haven't done any trading or anything in it, beyond building) however the security bar has gotten quite... 'interesting'. By which I mean it's a lot of white and yellow bar is absolutely tiny, with just a little bit reserved for red. Until I build some of the stations that supposedly reduce security, anyway...

... also been wondering, if looking for economy influence/value, would an Odyssey settlement or one of the Horizons installations provide more?
 
I have not built any small sized facilities. I have several Tier 2 Large science facilities and a Tier 2 Space Port (science) and a Tier 1 Orbital science station that do not produce much. I have some other misc scattered facilities (industry, agriculture, commercial, military). None are 'small'.

Or maybe I need to be patient for BGS to do its thing?

Is this worded loosely, or is this actually correct? For good growth do I need to add 'small' facilities to support 'large' facilities?

After reading the short in-game guide in the handbook, it seems system population may have a large impact on the quantity of goods produced. Maybe look into increasing population around those facilities? Would explain why even the smallest facility that increases population is expensive, if this is the case.
 
Yes. The colonisation contacts are only slowly coming back online now they have been unpaused. No-one worked out what the order is but a lot of players have found it is working now when it was not working two hours ago.

Paul has posted to the "unpaused" thread to clarify you will at least need to jump out of the system and in again for it to get reactivated, so I am afraid you will have to try that once an hour or so.
 
Hey Guys,
Right now I am in Tir system in Colonia and I can not see colonization contact.
Is colonization available in Colonia?
No.

Only available in or near the bubble, it might be expanded to other locations when out of Beta but as we seem to be building much faster than expected/planned for maybe not.
