Still having issues. They're markedly better than when things went down (I'm getting really long jumps instead of jumping and dropping), but the issues are still at least intermittently there. Hope Monday's going well for you, FDev.
 
Greetings and good morning Commanders.

Just a message to share our apologies for any issues you've been having this morning with the stability of all Elite Dangerous servers across all versions.
The issue behind the drops has been resolved, with serves now gently coming back online - however you may experience some slight lag as they do so, with some further issues with Fleet Carrier jumps related to server connections also.
  • Example issue: You may see Jump Orders failing.
  • Example issue: Mission servers failing.
Also do be aware there may be many a 'SNAKE ERROR' nipping at your heels too. These, again as a consequence of our current server issues.

Apologies also for the slight lack of further in depth information for you on this! I'm letting Dav and the team get stuck in with ironing out the creases here and wanted to get the initial short form response set out to you all to ease any concerns in the mean time.

Will stay in touch! o7
I'm not able to access the authentication server(s). Can't login. :(

Yep, sorry, as I keep saying we're still going to be seeing some instability/lag/issues and I'm here to update you all accordingly o7
 
While in outfitting and and doing a buy-back for a passenger cabin I get a OUTFITTING ERROR - PRESS OK TO RETURN TO LOCAL SERVICES error. Might have to do with the lag. I'll try again in a bit...

Hello, there. Any accepted mission at station causes "Blue Cobra" error and reload game.
Everybody in now? I still stuck at "Fail to retrieve commander data" after main menu.
I am unable to log on to Odyssey or Horizons, guess they are really stroppy for me.
I am still having issues nothing has improved yet - just seem to be getting worse
Apologies for these kinds of instances right now! Yep, these are symptomatic of the current server wobble situation. The team are still spinning a bunch of plates to keep things afloat.
Unfortunately servers don't all snap on and back effectively for everyone at the same time (as you can see from the variety of responses from all of your personal experiences in here right now) so we're not 100% out of the woods yet.
I'll keep everyone up to date on progress o7

I know things are still whirring up, but no-one's mentioned the mission board is down.
I updated the post o7
 
I couldnt get out of bed in time for work today and the coffe was cold, as I had set the timer wrong in the evening before. On top of that, my gf was occupying the bathroom!
When I finally arrived at work I learn 1 of my plumbers is sick, so I have to shuffle people around on the site, and, heaven be on hold, I have to do some work myself. This is an outrage.
I call this the BlackVulture, new bug?

Looks like the hamster is back on shift! Just handed in mission and cartographics.

Nice work guys and gals....

Like I say, we're getting there o7 BUT please be aware that it might still wobble a little bit! It won't come back smooth for everyone at the same time. Anything at all driven by a server is a teeny bit green in the gills right now so apologies if you experience a few more blips over the next hour or so o7 We'll keep monitoring.
 
Spin away, I am sure the plate spinners will win out!
You guys will sort it I am sure.
Interestingly I was getting some issues last night, particularly in Horizons. Hopefully all one issue.

Well. I've got a cargo hold full of slightly grumpy dissidents waiting to be delivered for their 're-education' at Tanner Settlement, and a Powerplay contact who says I haven't got any in the hold.
I think I'll wait a little for the server hamsters to have their Monday morning cup of coffee and get the wheels spinning!
 
There's a lot more wrong than a few lags and issues with carrier jumps. Repeated crashes to various multicolour ship error messages (well after advice above the servers are coming gently on line), SLF disappearing without being killed, plasma slug weapons showing as having no ammo left despite full fuel tank.
 
Like I say, it'll take a little time for things to warm up and you'll all be going through slightly differing experiences as they do but hopefully we're on the right side of the issues now o7
Unfortunately I spoke to soon. Made a couple of jumps then a magenta krait appeared!
 
I can't call Apex anywhere. When I try to call it hangs on this screen that is trying to book but goes back to the previous screen.
