No Expansion in EOL PROU 80 DD-D 774-CE-2

[ballskinicus]

Galnet released news, perhaps locally... im not sure how to tell the difference. For all you miners out there, news is we failed to establish an outpost on 80 DD-D 774-CE-2. While there were over 9k participants it appears we couldn't pull together long enough to get this done.

All for naught, once again.

the expansion is via CGs atm, expansion and investment states via automatic background sim states is disabled ( but development indexes will still permanetly rise)

That will be an automatically generated news article in response to the outcome of the Expansion state, and is unrelated to the CG to expand.

Expansion occurs when a faction reaches 75% or more influence, at which stage it goes pending for about 5 days, then active for about 5 days, at the conclusion of which the faction will appear in a populated system within (30LY? around that), and with less than six factions (I think). If no suitable system exists, the Expansion state fails.

Expansion state *cannot* build new stations in unpopulated systems (or build any stations for that matter). The CG and manual FD intervention is what decides that.

Yup for now expansion and investment doesnt build new stations we are hoping this is an options further out, i think tis been discussed pretty heavily in the megathread already the gold rush mechanics would provide a godo starting point, and whatever else Fdev has in mind for the background sim going forward

Thank you all for the clarification! I am still not familiar with some mechanics so I pooped myself a little when I read that.
