Elite Dangerous | System Colonisation Beta Details & Feedback

Probably it will triggers with new constructions buildings, as it is since beginning. So you are stuck until a new construction or a proper fix.
Some markets may take longer to be reverted. We anticipate all of these should be complete in a maximum of two weeks.
Can we expect that if a change is made to an existing body at this time, such as adding a new settlement or hub, the market will reflect the proper influences and not the erroneous influence from the planet itself? Or will that change happen gradually/exclusively with the reversion you mentioned above?
to my knowledge Updates have never canceled a BGS Tick
what the actual! F? Are you serious!?
Finally a confirmation about the issue in question...
RIP planetary influence, i thought it was a good change done horribly, so much for figuring out the agri influence conditions.
I know that you personally do not have any responsibility or influence on this matter, but this is utterly ridiculous.
By the time the Beta is over, this feature will be dead on arrival, because maybe a 100 people will still care enough to continue.
They look pretty darn serious indeed --> https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/elite-dangerous-gutamaya-corsair-update-8-april-2025.636335/ .
Concur.
I know there are limits to what you can do with time and resources, but you CAN NOT operate this way and expect to be sucessful overall. In a near total lack ot documentation, we are left to figure EVERYTHING out on our own and through dozens of hours of mind-numbing hauling to do it. We have no idea what changes are happening, when they happen, or why. We don't know what bugs are recognized by the team, or what even are bugs other than a handful. We start compiling information and adapting to a change only to then find out it is a bug introduced by some other unannounced change, or maybe not because I don't know what specifically this announcement refers to.
The only winning move is not to play right now. I understand that it's in flux and details might change but we have to have robust communication in order to interact, find issues, and report them as well as test the edges and corners. You guys are going to have to communicate more and go a bit beyond the 'ol "Use the issue tracker" to make this successful. This is not going very well right now.

I think the influence is neat, but instead of a 1.15 proportion they could have given ~0.35 so it can play into your build, but would never overpower the influences you build yourself. That would also give a bit of an economy on the local bodies that have no build spots.
Is there a Hamster Rescue group in Cambridge, so you can adopt more hamsters?
the basic Idea to use planetary specs to give (even with a 1.15 Inf) orphaned markets an economy is fine - there is just the "If"-clause missing - if is landable AND has slots -> don´t apply!
Well said. This is now the most critical aspect of TrailBlazers and not just changelog updates but full end-to-end processes.
The initial desire to test the mechanics has been well covered in codex articles etc. These have flagged up bugs as we'd expect and they can wait on the issue log for fixing.
The next step in any 'beta' testing is to check the algorithms and maths behind the systems and economies to ensure they are correct. The only way we can do this is to be given the processes that require testing. Testing cannot be carried out purely on results without any sight of the methodology or processes behind it. If such documentation is not forthcoming then TB fails to be a beta test and becomes a poorly devised rollout and I'm not convinced we want to go there again.
I think we're all in the same position. TB is a great addition to the game and we want to get it right as much as the devs. We welcome a fair test but without transparency and documented processes players are just going to get p1ssed off with the whole thing.

In the patch notes...
"Fixed issues with cargo instancing "
Is this the long-standing issue with FC markets being given some love?

Whew.... that is going to create an absolute mountain of bad information being reported by people and more-or-less mean that nobody can really say what inputs have done what to their system for weeks. Honestly, I think you ought to pause again on new claims and new constructions and let it catch up. I don't see good things ahead like this.
