Could you explain what you mean by this Jane? Do you mean the sysmaps will only update when the next tick happens?

Bit annoying as it seems EDMC is picking up the 'old' value rather than the 'new' value in the news articles, so it means visiting and eyeballing systems we are interested in....

For us at least the info was updating properly in the system news in stations but not on Galmap, system map or the right hand panel. It would appear that the tick did occur as normal (or perhaps somewhat later) but the information did not propagate fully out to the rest of the game systems. I have been advised that something squirrelly also happened last Monday - it may or may not have been the same hamster flying off its wheel.

yep seeing major issues here too, logged several times now and while the notice board has changed (updated) percentages are still the same and our systems are still in lockdown (even with the news of the end of the lockdown at the station)

Come on guys this has been a pain in the since beta release, I assume no additional resources where set aside to run 2 ticks (beta and live)

That is normal behaviour as you have other unprocessed systems, after update faction state will be per system.

edit: There're two phases in current tick - one processes systems, when all system are updated another update processes faction state. So, as system ticking is lagging, you won't get your faction state updated!

Well, the 'lag' now is ... 18 hours. Normally it's nearer 10 minutes around my local systems.

Edit: Assuming it's still out of sync - which it may not be - we gave up watching after an hour or so...

So no tick to speak of yet it seems, but looks like it should be "soon" TM.
EDIT: Yup, sometime between 2130 and 2200.

Got a partial tick at around 21:30 - Faction status summary got updated, but not the system and system map.

It's now 22:30 and the system map isn't updated yet, still the wrong INF for the faction I'm monitoring.

Yep, apologies, just logged on and the system map not updated .[knocked out]

I'm still only seeing a partial tick, even though I only logged on in the last 15 minutes. System map and the right-side panel have not updated. Only the faction status summary upon docking provides updated information.

Its another where the calculations have happened but the galaxy map hasn't picked up the change. If you dock the faction summaries are ok.
