This is from EDDiscovery, a light-weight local program which shows your journal stuff + has a bunch of other different tools. Most websites require local programs in the first place to function (they use data sourced from everyone else, 0 direct interfacing with Elite) so there's a bunch that do this sorta thing already
"Development Level >>"? Figuring out what all these numbers do.
- Thread starter Ian Doncaster
- Start date
Hmm so the weird shipyards at stronghold carriers that don't allow you to store large ships are a leftover of that?
A half functioning shipyard like that would be a cool step to have on the way to teching up your system, but I assume the shipyard people are unlocking is the full one? The Ocellus I built came with a shipyard/UC so the T3 stations just get that from the base station there I guess.
I still haven't figured out why my Ocellus started with 90k pop when others have gotten 100k. I'm still waiting to build anything else until all the noob traps have been triggered by other people and to see what a solo big station does when left to grow (at least in happiness) on it's own for a few weeks.
I do not observe this occurring at all. I have a high Development Level (25+) and just placed down a T3 Planetary Port and my costs are actually 3,000 higher than the reported cost, a friend has far less devleopment than I and rolled 4,000 LOWER than the reported cost. The commodity values are just random period.

May I ask if your Coriolis adopted that specific "Refinery" look once you managed to get rid of the "Colony" economy?
(Or can anyone else confirm that changing your spaceports' look is actually possible?)
Honestly I saw that info on Bro Sabatheus' Twitch. But as Ian wrote this need more data and investigations.
So FWIW, I just built a Nemesis Military Outpost for my initial station...
... and a Minerva...
... and I now have a Medium security rating
... though... maybe I'm doing something wrong... I definitely checked that I have "Report crimes against me" turned on, but if I get attacked by a pirate, there's no security response. Anyone else had the same?
Don't mind me... turns out being a wanted criminal in other systems has it's drawbacks XD

What 10x build discount? It's a discount to buying stuff from markets isn't it, instead of a discount in the required commodities to build anything. I beg thee forum users, please no misinformation

Does this discount applies to Architect or to everyone?What 10x build discount? It's a discount to buying stuff from markets isn't it, instead of a discount in the required commodities to build anything. I beg thee forum users, please no misinformation
Check out Mechans video.
Apparently for architects. But not really meaningful. Plus way less worth than the increase in building costs is damaging.
Some people are having a lot more joy with getting different economies
Then I come across Tascheter Sector BV-Y b4 which has basically one of everything nearby:
and ...
- I've built a Colony Outpost with two Agri Installations nearly - it is still not picking up any Agri influence.
- I've built a Surface Colony Tier 2 Planetary Port next to a refinery - it's still a pure Colony

Is this something which only processes on the weekly cycle, perhaps?
Does that actually sell anything, or is its internal supply all looped back into its internal demand?
Maybe - I'm holding off on more building until the tick this week.
yeah - seems like it sells a bit of everything

Edit: Well, no high tech, the comms relay still has a construction site so maybe that will be added soon
Crucis Sector GB-X b1-2 has a Agri Orbital Outpost - seems to have inherited Agri from a surface settlement (and it has Agri stuff in its market). So you can definitely inherit economies from the planet you orbit. Though there is also a Military settlement, but no Military on the Outpost.
If anyone has systems where an orbital has taken economies from other things in orbit - or a surface base has inherited economy from other surface locations - I'd be interested to know.

I'm much further behind most pilots here as i'm solo with no friends. 
But thought I'd add my experience to the mix of data in the event it adds any value.
I built a Commercial Orbital Station as my starter station. It granted me 4k Pop, earned me 9k credits, and inside had no Shipyard, UC, Missions etc. The market only sold 2x Biowaste.
I haven't been back there for a while, as I spent the last week hauling/building a Planetary Civilian Outpost. Upon reaching 99% completion of the Civ Outpost I popped back to my Commercial Station just to take a snapshot and see if anything was different, and to also see if the Civ completion would have any effect on the Commercial.
I was very pleased to see that now the Commercial Stn had missions, passengers and the market now also sold Hydrogen as well as Biowaste. So it's changed in the last week despite no additional builds being made by me.
I then completed the Civilian Outpost. This led to no jump in population and the same lack of facilities in this station that I saw at the Commercial Orbital.
However, today I logged in to find my system is now at 20k Pop. So overnight it's changed. Very cool. Still no change to the stations facilities though.
I'm now working on a Relay Installation. And then i'll be looking at Security. Before heading down the road of trying to establish some industry, extraction, refinery etc. I have 30 sites available in my system so plenty of growth opportunities ahead of me.
I am hoping to build up the commodity markets. It would be nice for my system to be producing something. Hoping that comes from establishing the industry, extraction stations etc.
But yeah, that's my experience so far. If anyone has any info to share on how to build up a varied commodity market it would be very welcomed insight for me.
Thanks to everyone whose sharing data and experience. It's so helpful in trying to connect the jigsaw pieces.

Did you relog?

Curious if making supply/deman situation would be better as to try having all in system. I now used galaxy map and I see that my system already have two systems linked with trading ... EDIT: hmm, but this are commanders only, means very likely myself.
The relog added the Tier3 construction point for the Refinery Hub.
There are no changes to the "colony" economy on the Orbis.
There are, however, some slight changes in the demands at the Orbis. A variety of items has slightly lower demand. The only reason i can see here is that the lower "Standard of Living" -which is lowered by 2 points through the Refinery Hub - has led to lower demand.
These are mainly items like Fish or Medicines.
I did not see any changes in regards to Refinery related goods, mainly because the main station is still colony.
The economy in the system map does not include Refinery, it is still colony/high tech.
Another experiment:

Sytem 2:
Cheers to all fellow Cmdrs.
Sytem 1:
- Initial station at claim: Coriolis, with ~71K of materials required.
Sytem 2:
- Initial station claim: Science Outpost, with ~22K of materials required.
- After this outpost, I have completed 3 installations (2x Comms. 1x Satellite), with ~6.7K
- of materials required, each of them.
- After these 3 installations I started a Coriolis Station, now with ~53K of materials required, 25% less than in System 1.
Cheers to all fellow Cmdrs.
