Patch after patch after patch and even if one of the patches does fix something it breaks two others and we're constantly told that the team do care about the game and it hurts them when things go wrong but does it? Does it really? because I don't always get that impression. I'm not filled with much confidence for Odyssey. I love and live for this game but I'm really starting to miss No Man's Sky, please don't make me go back
Patch Notes Fleet Carriers Update - Patch 4 Patch Notes

It's funny you mention it in answer directed to me.
As I have shared my opinion that mining profits are OP even after the patch several times in this thread.
Apples vs oranges.
Both are true.
You can refill FC in few hours of gameplay IN THE BUBBLE, by mining Panite (or other meta mining resource if it changes)
and buying never-drying 40k/t Tritium in Stations.
AND
You need to spend at least 100 man hours to mine 20.000+t of Tritium in Deep Space (and Colonia atm.)
No offense intended, and not really directed at you specifically. I just get a little triggered whenever I see the "X and Y happened at roughly the same time, therefore I am right" argument. It seems pretty popular around here WRT mining and/or fleet carriers for some reason.
Not even close to the problem.
For some people for whatever reason(mainly illness) the game is all they have in their life so I can understand the disgruntlement from some. it's not just the broken things in game, it's how long it takes to fix those things, if the store or ARX broke that stuff is fixed almost instantly or within a day or two. It's also a lack of real communication from the team, they'll put up a post answer one or two questions then disappear for days/weeks at a time
Yes done that twice still empty though
Starting to get Annoyed 2nd Trit load vanishes Colonia Trip postponed
As you may know my entire carrier stock was "robbed" by fed dev and I submitted a ticket Sunday Yesterday the gang going to Colonia refilled ready for departing now to Colonia so all you "stuck "Commanders may be pleased not to have mined and then lost it overnight
Not having the ability to see OWNED FC after turning filter on is another proof of "I do my job with the least possible effort" attitude of someone(s) who are behind this implementation.
If you ask me, the fleet carrier update in general suffered from a severe lack of foresight and planning combined with a hearty helping of "close enough" kick-it-out-the-door development.

I have read your story - no fun at all.
Still, this is a severe but separate bug that is not really relevant to the "We can't refuel our FCs" lamenting coming from commanders in the Bubble I was referring to.
I totally understand why you posted it here though.
I hope it will be resolved positively.
It appears carriers should have been 3 times as expensive.
I would really like ED evolving into a yearly payable subscription game.
Or maybe they could introduce it with a major update, like Odyssey - make new content a "subscription " only.
IF
It would allow
assigning a qualified and adequate team to fix ALL bugs that emerged over the years
better communication with players community
implementing feedback-impacted game changes.
I know that would make SOME or even most of leave the game - but ED it not a MMO anyway, because of instances the change in number of players you meet on average per hour would not change dramatically - because we do not see the majority of them even in open, even when they are in the same system.
I don't play many other games since I got "sucked" by ED 2nd time.
Effectively, I would save a lot of money by paying just for ED yearly instead of buying several games per month that I ditch after relatively short time.
Whoopsie, slow down CMDR it's not a speedrun
But theres no shortage of grind in this game, it shouldn't apply to a fuel source. I don't care how it's done, just give us cheap and plentiful tritium so we can.. you know... have fun? I know it somewhat chafes the crowd that thinks every single aspect to this game should be akin to hammering yourself in the junk repeatedly to see others enjoying themselves, but you may also solve the problem of so many FC's being permanent fixtures in popular systems if those CMDR's can easily fill up & go.
Maybe we are just short sighted and FD is right by preventing the Galaxy to be 100% explored too soon?
Sending hundreds of FCs into deep could make us reach this point very soon...
No, wait...
It couldn't
PS. AFAIR new systems are being generated in the background, after that system data have to be stored permamently.
Inklusive every rock that has been prospected (location and content only actually, not visual type).
I have no idea how it translated to data storage costs, but I see no other LOGICAL explanation for "crippling" FCs like FD did.

That's not how it works. Haven't you ever played something like Minecraft and wondered how come someone can share their world seed and you play in exactly the same world as them? How an entire infinite world can be compressed down into a single number?
ED works that way - every procedurally generated system is just one number and can be generated and regenerated on demand. And the number doesn't even need to be stored since it's little more than the XYZ coordinates of the system (there's a little bit more to it than that, but I'm not about to write an essay on it here).
Appreciate the update but this is going to be getting close to a whole month stranded in the black now with no Trit and an empty Fleet Carrier. Can you address that today?
