Is that confirmed?
Elite Dangerous | System Colonisation Claims Unpaused
- Thread starter Paul_Crowther
- Start date
I verified, and I can reproduce this in a station I completed during the pause. No colonization contact in it. Another station in the same system completed before the pause, and another after the pause end (today), both have the colonization contact it it normally.
i just checked….
Station completed during pause…. contact disabled.
Station completed prior to pause …. contact disabled.
Faction home world …. contact disabled.
I had a Coriolis station in progress when the pause started, that was finished before the most recent server tick. The colonization contact in that station became active about 2 hours ago, and I was able to place a claim from that station.
100% this. A beta like for fleet carriers (with reduced commodities cost to speed up the test process) would have been preferable. The live bubble is getting butchered with thousands useless bridge systems
One issue being brought up is if there are multiple paths to claim a system, the lucky person at the one coming on first can grab it before the other even has a contact. The spot for me to claim is still not back up, luckily there is no other path to claim but this seems to be taken unnecessarily long after logging and leaving/ coming back for hours while other people are going about their day. I did notice that areas affiliates are in seem to have come back on right away while the yare streaming for awhile as many of us still wait..................kinda sus.
you leave my bridge systems alone, we having fun building bridges
Yes. Because of what I said. And because that's what FD want (expansion, not lots of random systems all over the galaxy).
There's functionally zero wrong with lots of single outpost systems as chains. And sorry, but if your chosen system is that far away...

I just checked. my discovered ELW system, is 6500LY out. that is a lot of 15ly bridges out 
many hours after the pause has been suspended , no contact active.
and I am in a system already populated before the colonization has been started , some stations concluded before the pause , and at least 1 completed after the colonization has been reinstated.
no contact active in the region.
I mean I guess yeah there’s nothing functionally wrong with it, but it’s a shame that there are probably halfway decent systems that someone could actually colonize and build up into something cool that will stay single outposts forever since the original claimant was only using it as a bridge. It would be nice if people could (voluntarily!) renounce systems they don’t intend to develop further so someone else could pick it up and do something with it - seems like a win win.
Edit: also didn’t read the whole conversation leading up to this so am just thinking about outpost chains and their destinies.
i completed mine during pause it has enabled, they arent related they are just randomly one by one coming online
Aww bolloks. My sweet wee system has been nabbed by another player. It's only reachable from my colonised system. Clearly the system colonisation contact came up in someone else's instance before mine. Not a happy bunny.
Jup same happend to me, after hours jumping around and reloging trying to get a colonization contact to work i finally find one and now my system is already claimed. This is ed!
My Orbital Outpost built during the colonization shutdown has the colonisation contact enabled (HIP 6572)
I found out that some pilots can use the system and some can't. It doesn't matter if he has his own system or not. It's very strange. I checked all the stations in the systems I needed, but there was no way to apply at any of them, and another person just flew in and picked it up... This is nonsense...
Contacts are coming online, but can anyone make any claims? This is all I've been getting for hours.
Yes I have successfully started a new system… I’m docked at my ship now and it is accepting cargo.
