Powerplay Server Side Changes - Fixed some missing Powerplay system effects

Triggers, hopefully. Utopia has about ten systems that are 50% more expensive than they should be.

From Sandro:

Hello Commanders!

This is a heads up to let you know about a fix for a Powerplay issue that’s going live soon and some repercussions.

When Elite Dangerous: Horizons launched, some systems gained new population values that weren’t being picked up by Powerplay correctly for the purposes of exploitation. This should, on the whole, simply add a few more CC for affected powers as the new populations are drawn into the fold.

In addition, a hiccup caused some systems exploited by more than one control system to become available for preparation if one of those control systems revolted (when what should happen is basically nothing, as they can still be exploited by the remaining control system).

Such systems will become correctly exploited by their remaining control system, making them safe once more. Of course, this means that any move on such systems by other powers will be revoked, with apologies, of course.

The only system that will avoid this fate is Bragur, as it’s basically replacing the system of Tewi which revolted and all systems involved are owned by Emperor Lavigny-Duval.
 
I'm replying to this across a few forum threads, for I've noticed some misplaced rage building, specifically in relation to this quote:

The only system that will avoid this fate is Bragur, as it’s basically replacing the system of Tewi which revolted and all systems involved are owned by Emperor Lavigny-Duval.

I crunched the numbers and counted the systems that the Bragur expansion is Contesting, not the ones which are labeled Exploited by other systems.

Bragur would make 14cc in "potential profit"
Tewi would make 24cc in "potential profit"

Seeing as this fixed bug returns 59cc from formerly Tewi systems into the ALD fold, a difference of 10cc does agree with Sandro's statement that it is "basically replacing the system of Tewi".

The week isn't over, and Research is still making decisions, ALD CMDRs should not be freaking out over this.
