Patch Notes Fleet Carriers Update - Patch 4 Patch Notes

[bigcee75]

Thanks for the info Bruce, fingers crossed it goes as smoothly as we all hope it will.

 

[Minceyeet]

I'd rather hope mining yields will be enough to create some kind of player market...

This would be great!

 

[Hadrian Augustus Duval]

But yeah, buffing Tritium replenish rate will be a good idea, 4k tritium is a good money making method as long as it doesn't have unlimited demand. Good for trading and keep trading between players alive, also please fix the buying and selling with carrier contibute toward squadron trade ranking, we really need to fix that exploit.

[Deareim]

so we have a patch that should fix the patch which were supposed to fix the previous patch related to the previous update. Almost there FD !

Now question at 10 cr : what will be broken by that patch ? Or which bug will come back ?

 

[Nadreck]

I'm guessing the availability of tritium in stations (or lack thereof) is a server-side issue that wouldn't need a patch to fix.

...Which would, however, raise the question of why it hasn't been fixed. Or at least mentioned.

 

[Snowymonk]

@Bruce, Steve - is this patch hoping to fix the Tritium stock in Colonia issue?

 

[Nax Wren]

What about buying tritium? Is Colonia still on a fuel crisis?

 

[Flimley]

Hooray for everything. \o/
... Tritium fuel scoop...

[ebbrell]

Totally agree, a fix not a change.
The fact people got used to it staying still..... is the problem.

Shame it didnt work correctly from day one...

 

[-VR- Max Factor]

It will be the final patch before your vacation or your programmers will screw up again, I think that 2 betas and 4 subsequent patches cast doubt on your professionalism.

And another thing, you give for dead the update fc menu, as you have done with other features or you will add more things with all the feedback that we send you.

Lol. You haven't played many games have you.

But what about the mining and the stranded Fleet Carriers?

Greetings, Commanders!

We're pleased to confirm that the patch described in our Known Issues post from earlier this week is expected this Wednesday 29 July at 11:00 UTC with an estimated 15 minutes of downtime. Please find the Patch Notes and Known Issues below:

Patch Notes

Mining

• Fixed an issue whereby surface deposits created after cracking a motherlode would flag themselves as depleted
• Fixed issues related to diminishing returns for commodities in overlapping hotspots

There's nothing here that addresses the COMPLETE LACK of commodities in so-called "hotspots"; spending 4 hours looking for "X" in an "X" hotspot and pulling out 20-30 tons is NOT fun... it's mind-numbingly boring. Does the latest attempt to fix the game address non-overlapping hotspots with the same fix as for overlapping hotspots?

 

[Iron Body]

I know it's a bit early, but I'm looking forward to patch 5.

 

[alexzk]

But what about the mining and the stranded Fleet Carriers?

100 man * hour to top fuel. That was on beta, it is now. However you need to find special place right now, like ltd+trit overlap. That will give you around 200t/hr

 

[schmu666]

2 weeks for ... this

What's going on fdev?

 

[shadowfax986]

Seriously thin patch notes. Especially considering the issues raised by the last patch. Pretty pathetic IMHO.

 

[alterNERDtive]

Unlimited supply and demand makes having numbers for supply and demand at all pointless.

That’s your opinion. It just worked differently. And, FUN FACT, it still does. For basically everything.

It was a fix, not a change.

So … please do enlighten me then why demand was “fixed” literally just for LTD and nothing else?

 

[Ian Doncaster]

Also I’m taking it as confirmed then that the demand changes solely for LTD

Almost every demand issue got fixed in 3.7.3, including on a whole bunch of commodities where hardly anyone had noticed that demand was bugged in the first place.

(Consumer Tech, Agronomic Treatment, Tritium ... well, that one got noticed, Painite, some adjustment for Palladium, at least a few others)

Certainly the other core gems are still bugged and have infinite regeneration. Or possibly working as intended and have infinite regeneration. I really can't tell any more.

Yeah but That'll do developments aren't really the best when it comes to numbers. 250k tons is not a lot of supply, not at all.
Either do it right, or don't do it at all.

Bubble-wide supply of Tritium is about 250MT, not 250kT.
This number appears approximately stable, comparing the EDDB dump from two weeks ago.

Any chance the Tritium replenish rate in stations is being re-evaluated?

Not sure what's wrong with it at the moment - it seems to be holding fairly steady across the bubble.

Tritium supplies at stations in Colonia are in single digits.
