Elite Dangerous | Commodities Market Issue Update

Greetings Commanders,

We have released a small server side update to address an issue affecting a number of planetary port commodity markets.

With this update those affected will no longer have planetary constructions limiting supply and demand to only three commodities. We anticipate it will take approximately 24 hours for the change to apply to all affected markets.

Please continue to report any issues you encounter on the issue tracker during the System Colonisation Beta.
 
So it'll only affect Planetary Ports, nothing in Space? Because there's a literal Ton of Coriolis/Ocellus/Orbis floating up there with the same Problem.

Not to mention that, due to the previous Kerfuffle with the Planets Economies messing things up, people get cheated out of the full Potential of the Hubs they're building. My Primary Port (Coriolis) orbiting a HMC went as follows:

Initial Economy: Extraction 115%
1st Refinery Hub: Extraction 115% Refinery 45%
2nd Refinery Hub: Extraction 115% Refinery 90%
3rd Refinery Hub: Refinery 100% (35% go poof!)
4th Refinery Hub: Refinery 135% (10% lost in the Ether)

Not going to build anything but some more Installations for now, until you've cleaned your Act up and things get stable.
 
I have Orbis above a planet on which there is one refinery hub built after Orbis. Orbis has colony economy selling just H and biowaste. Nothing changed for last 2 weeks. Will this update resolve this?

Good news. Will this also maybe reset the economy types of ground ports? From the unintended planetary influence?
This particular update does not address this issue. It is focused on the issue mentioned above.
So it'll only affect Planetary Ports, nothing in Space?
This update affects planetary ports specifically. We are continuing to work on other improvements to economy and population for System Colonisation.
 
Finally , CMM in the market. This icy planet only has 2 slot so only this T2 colony & a refinery built.

edit : so ... Planetary port only ? Just checked the other agril/sciene/industrial settlements and they still only 3 commodities or no market at all.

My agriculture settlements (not ports, the on foot Odyssey type settlements) are only showing 3 commodities... I don't remember this being the case before? I thought that was limited to the Ports... am I misremembering?
