Does this address the issue were CDMRs have lost the ability to build in their system and no longer show up as the System Architect? I mean after getting two Outpost, two Settlements, and three installations done myself it will be really sad to put in so much work and lose it all. Plus, spending ARX on changing the name on nearly everything.

I have a ticket open right now to cancel a new asteroid base because placing the asteroid in “Slot 1” did not place the asteroid into the “B Ring”, as I expected. I have not been able to test if “Slot 0” will place the asteroid into the B Ring of the Gas Giant, but I am surprised there is no verification of where the base will go or what type it will be.

1. Please add an option to cancel a new base construction and refund construction points. Going through support is not fun if I place something wrong!

2. Can someone verify if placing an asteroid base in “Slot 0” corresponds to the “B Ring” and if “Slot 1” corresponds to “A Ring”? Ive already done Slot 1-A Ring but I’m afraid of similar results trying with Slot 0.

Thanks for the update! Lots of good changes!

edit: fixed point 2, Slot-1 sent me to A-ring.
