Colony systems changing status

I concur it's not fixed yet. Now not even my buddy can see any system architect in my system; yesterday he still could, though I could not.

I guess there is no point continue playing trailblazers until you can be sure the efforts are not lost.

I paused it already.

Good news is that there is an update tomorow.
 
Still sucks though I spent hours finally finding the system I wanted to grab and a station within distance only to get there and find system colonization suspended this game sure likes to waste peoples time.
 
I'll go ahead and transfer all but the last load of Titanium I guess. I have to go out of town so I'd rather not do anything that changes the state of the system while it's in this condition.
 
I started up game and my status has been restored as of now.
Probably because you have not completed it yet. I think it made reference to that in Paul's announcement that you can continue what you are working on but those of us who have completed our build it has been suspended. I am trying to monitor this for a response as I have a system I really want to grab but cannot until resolved.
 
For what it's worth, I just checked, and the system I colonized also shows as previously inhabited. The outpost I completed is still there and still has the name I gave it, as are the two construction platforms for the installations I started. Obviously I can't start anything new, as I am not shown as the SA anymore. Restarting a few times didn't change any of that.

As Paul posted multiple times that they are aware of that issue, that it seems to be an UI issue and that no progress will be lost, I suggest relaxing and stop panicking (for now).

Same.
 
I just logged into the game and experience exactly the same thing: clicking on the architect menu does not show any architect and only says "Previously Established Inhabited System".

The only thing that changed since yesterday when I logged out was that I completed my very first construction (a space outpost) in Col 285 Sector FV-D b13-5 to successfully colonize the system. The outpost is still there.

edit: saw this on the steam updates for Elite:
"My system architect status is missing/I can't continue to work on my systems
This issue is currently being investigated and a solution will be available very soon. Once this solution is in place your system architect status and progress will be displayed correctly."

rufio, you should update the 1st posting of this thread.

Also,as a separate thing, you cannot claim any new systems for now as it got paused. I guess we expanded too fast... 8000 systems within just a few days! That is really too much for this short time from a balance perspective. Just somewhat sad to learn that I am not the king of the system, just some contractor. "Yup, I built that thing up meself but they ain't givin' me a discount at the bar or salute me". ;)

On the contrary, it seems that colonisation is being paused because of an issue that is acting as an impediment to expansion:

One of the reasons we launched System Colonisation as a live beta was to test this at scale, which is something very hard to do for us internally. Thanks to your astounding efforts we have received lots of incredibly helpful data and feedback and it has also identified an important issue that needs to be addressed. This issue greatly impacts the ability to claim systems and needs more thorough investigation.
(My bolding)

This dovetails with reports of Commanders being locked out of colonisation or otherwise being unable to claim systems.
 
Just FYI, my SA status is back after the update. Don't know if it is universally fixed or just random. Also, I got this message:
