Day 64 of a broken background sim

No. In the instance I am referring to, there was a two to three day reset back to a previous state of the galaxy. This is recall clearly, but the proliferation and persistence of bugs on bugs on bugs makes it hard to remember all the finer details.

I imagine you're referring back to this incident nearly 3 years ago. https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2016-07-15-elite-dangerous-players-accuse-frontier-of-god-modding

Which was a single day reset. Not 'two to three'. ofc people like your good self keep repeating increasing wild accusations, so now you probably believe your own #fakenews covfefe. A shame as it undermines us in our quest to actually get fdev to acknowledge the current issue and fix it.
 
Looks like at least fdev are aware that the BGS is currently bust:

Hi Mert39,

We are currently aware of this issue and are working to fix it as soon as we can.

Thank you for your report.

Wonder if they'll fix it in time for today's tick?

(And when I say 'fix', I ofc mean 'get it back into the broken state it was in last week again, which we are now missing'). Small steps :)

You will see during today's tick. If it is easy, it would have been corrected. If not corrected, then not a good sign.
 
They don't have a clue since BGS design was outsourced. Just coming back to bite them directly to the butt.

I'm not so sure you are correct there.

Everything FDev has done in recent years has been to bring all the stuff under their own roof, something I hasten to add; they have been quite successful at. I think you are speculating a little TBH.

Possibly, though even so, in the interests of getting it fixed or just so they can learn what the code they are reading does.
Telling the players what they think should happen. So the players can then say yes that seems correct or Nope that doesn't happen.
Would seem a good idea. This would also remove doubt from players.

And some updated guide of how its supposed to work Within the game for all to see, isn't a bad idea really, I would think.

Forum posts and video are fine but a Codex entry would be much better for all.

When you arrive in a system and check the Mission Board and choose a mission the game says ALL THE TME <expletive!!> and tells me the Mission List has expired and refreshes the list only to find mostly the mission I wanted is no longer available. Even when I do pick a mission the same pop up message saying MISSION LIST EXPIRED arrives and refreshes the mission list again and again. Driving me to want to go out exploring yet again. Utter rubbish. This aspect of the game is BADLY BROKEN once again. Then add in the RESTOCK ALL for 10 CR. this is an OLD BUG. How did this reappear? And Propsector Limpets are only for Supercruise! Come on Frontier fix this quickly please.
