Plenty of people already doing a lot of exploring with no problems, even in the Great Rocket Tea Drought, by mining. I mine about 1 hour for every 10 exploring. Gee, whatta burden lol.
Patch Notes Fleet Carriers Update - Patch 4 Patch Notes
I guess they all want to start exploring from the very opposite end of Galaxy
And scan only systems their FC drops in

How would that fix the bugs ?
If only we could be certain that all the bugs would be quickly fixed, I would agree to that.
considering the fact that megaship hacking and research limpets are broken and it took 6 F** months and multiple tickets to pass megaship hacking on 'confirmed' (still no news for research limpets) don't expect anything....
Hope in this game will make you rage like most of veterans.
Just look at the last patches: 4 ONLY for miners...
We would have a pretty powerful tool.
Like mass cancelling the renewal of subscription until game is fixed.
It would give them some time to react and we could always renew it later.
So tritium miners should get paid for no better reason than they chose to waste time mining an abundant resource with little value for the time investment instead of things that actually have value? So if everyone decides to mine water then the price of water should rocket up to 900K+ credits? Tritium miners chose to mine something with a poor return for their time. Just because they thought it SHOULD be worth something doesn't make it so. The game has clearly established that there are certain resources (LTD, VO, Painite, etc.) that ARE worth the effort to mine because they have a high selling price. FDEV doesn't like people having fun, so they decided to artificially nerf prices to kill one type of mining they think makes too much money after YEARS of it holding its value and artificially restricting the availability of a known abundant resource while bumping the purchase price up to promote another type of mining makes no sense other than to turn owning a fleet carrier into YET ANOTHER G-R-I-N-D just to keep the damn things flying.
It's not a bug... it's a new nerf-tastic feature!
Fix?
It's not a fix to throw 2 candies in a kinder-garden room full of something 30 toddlers and then say: here, before we had unlimited supply, now we fixed it.
Hopefully...
Mmmmm....
Dropping with an FC in CZ would be an epic way to grind credits passively.
And if destroyed ships would drop materials...
Paradise!!!
But seriously, I am missing a "sandbox" option in ED where we could test experimental builds and create scenarios that are impossible in "live" game.
Like the one above.
It hurts to see how potential of this engine/open world is wasted.
Maybe there is some "intern" version of ED with "admin console".
It could be so much fun.

Again, carriers are not ships. They are not supposed to move.
And can you explain how being able to pilot a carrier would solve the problems your are describing ?
I think it would be much worse.

LOL - ehh, no they don't actually orbit they just sit there. The game is not that realistic...
Patch 5!
Well, fdev called FC 'ship' multiple times even if it's just a flying market (mobile base for sensitive people ^^).
Anyway, it can be whatever we want it to call it is just a massive sink of credits with lot of bugs/lack of content/work (do you rlly think they did in 2 years? 6 months is more realistic).
The Mining Bugs will be costarring with Steven Segal in the upcoming remake:
Hard to Kill 2020
They appear to be, literally, reskinned stations. The log-files even have a boolean property for each fleet carrier that is set to true ("IsStation":true)
