Lost system data

When did they reset our exploration data? Wanted to check out some system maps from my old expeditions, and I have none of them. They are also marked as red with the "visited stars" filter. :(
 
What do you mean exactly? Can't you system-view systems you've previously visited? Have your first-discovery-tags disappeared?

I just checked a few of my own from 2014/2015 and they look fine.
 
Not talking about 1st discovery tags..

I simply can't open system view because I have no data. Bubble Nebula was one of my first proper expeditions, and I have no system data. Visited it in late 2015.

Strangely enough I can check out Sagittarius A* and Beagle Point system maps BUT the "visited stars" filter still tells me I haven't been there. Visited these places while on the Distant Worlds expedition in 2016.

The filter is not retroactive so no surprise there, you can trick it a little(logs) but it's hard to do without the full system list. There was no reset.
You can however still find the pre 1st discovery tag list somewhere. But from then on, there is no further record. Well unless you used some 3rd party tools maybe. (there are ways to import datas from some of them or from your own logs, which you can edit)

I did import as much as i could, but antidating it to gamma release date by default.

It may be interesting to use all systems that ed discovery knows about, and alter that filter with it. It would be easy but that would do a mess.

Anyway i have no idea how to get the maps back,except going there or asking the devs.

Most systems i've checked are fine, but the oldest may sometimes be somewhat "messed up", no map, or not all of it, unexplored planets instead of fully scanned...

If the devs are reading, it would be nice to have our own filters, having an empty folder where you could put files that the game would load, naming the filter with the name file or its first line, and then color any system listed in it.

May I suggest you give support a call and see if they can help you?
 
Maybe you're one of the commanders adding to the elusive CMDR VALIDATING's huge list of first discoveries? :)
It would be an interesting thing to check. Do you have a system a few kylies beyond the core you know of? If so, I could go there and check it out.
