If they wrote a script to combine 3x3 L cores into 1 XXL core for the purpose of optimising all markets across the game, the same script could be used to consolidate players structures where multiple L cores are snapped together. (This only works where players used blank cores to build though, because the BPs snapping is still broken. However, in a perversely fortune outcome, because BP snapping is broken, most players were always forced to build on blank cores.) 
 
Another incentive for players to consolidate to the XL/XXL cores would be elevators travelling further. It's also a pain having multiple L cores stacked and having to skip elevators at every core boundary.
 
[EDIT: ...Unless markets are already on a secret dev-only XL core which would be even more disappointing.]

I accidentally pressed ctrl+enter while posting... went of half cocked, so to speak.  full post is now posted.

This is sad news but not surprising seeing how difficult the devs appear to be finding it to fix even trivial things like input boxes that don't delete the initial zero shown therein.

If bigger cores are not a thing
pelase give us some formal way to blueprint a "nest" of cores.
Create formal links between cores.
Communicate between cores via databank.
Control smaller dynamic cores' engines thrusters and brakes etc from a master core.
Let us at the VERY LEAST link elevators between cores...
Or even increase elevators so we only need 2 to cross a large core corner to corner rather than 4...

Wiping will fix the economy? 
Oh you sweet, summer child.

Maybe they mean wipe the game ...

Nah dont wipe ... in fact all of us who "suffered" the balfa state of the game gief us 50 billion quanta free plus 50 million talent points free ... ^^

I was planning to spend some time running asteroids.. but it looks like someone at NQ forgot how to start the asteroid event..
a shame.. and odd how this seems to not be an automated process integrated into the game.
 
cron must be a tool unknown to NQ
 
Well, NQ now has two opportunities to show they meant their "we will do better" this time around..  It will be interesting to see how they respond to this (tomorrow)..

More than different sizes, I would prefer an elevator to be able to reach from any corner of an L cube to the opposite corner without having to use 4 elevators in total.
64M is just too short.

Moreover, I wish they would let us link elevators BETWEEN CORES.

Sushi?

the fact that they manually arrive in waves is... very NQ.

So to all the “wipe NAU” proponents, how do you suppose NQ compensates those who joined in the Beta?
 
Imagine actually paying over a year for a game only to be shoved back to day 1 suddenly at some arbitrary time and told everything you’d achieved has been wiped i.e. we deleted all your data… but we’ll keep your money, cheers. 

I would feel a right mug for wasting my time in a game like this only to lose everything I’d built.

Now that's what a physical manifestation of trolling looks like. LOL.

They should also reduce the amount of charges, 10 is extremely generous... you can go almost a full 2 days before needing to use your charges! Heck, they also need to reduce the time period between taxation cycles, it should be daily- not weekly!

Oh... and can we for god's sake please have S,M and L Elevators?!
 

Appreciated, Deleted...  Ty for the scan tip. 

OP used the word causeless. 
While I don’t believe it’s an actual word, I do think their intent is correct. 
 
IMHO tax should only be levied on hexes in the safe zone and could be justified as Aphelia keeping the peace in lieu of NQ developing real NPC enforcers ala EVE. 

Same for space stations in the safe zone they should be taxed in exchange for being eternally “safe”
 
outside the safe zone taxes should not exist at all.  What is reason for them to exist out there in the wilderness. 
 
of course there is no planetary PvP so you could argue that tax will be removed when planetary safe zones are removed.

1) You can already see the hexes you've scanned by linking to the container with the saved scan data in it, making it your active container and selecting the container from the dropdown menu bottom left of the map. 
 
this is a chore though, so it would be better if we could see these map results from the scanner itself, too, without having to mess around with containers and links and stuff. 

Yes, colour coding the hexes for each tier is a nice idea or otherwise ranking or filtering based on chosen criteria like you can currently do with container contents. 
 
2) yes, a bespoke scanning proficiency skill applicable to the territory scanner would be nice. 
 
3) I would go further to add a click box to filter out all bots sales and purchase orders from search results with a single click. 

I also want a “what’s cheap here” browse feature that only lists products being sold at lower prices compared to other places. Say, within the cheapest 10% of all listings or something like that. 
sometimes I just want to browse and see what’s on offer after showboating for three hours. 
 
Finally, I would like the search box to actually use “AND” logic between search terms rather than 1980’s style literal string search so that

pan black alu 
         or
alu panel bla

return the expected results rather than having to remember EXACTLY what the product is named. 
 
but these are band aids. Because really, player market terminals linked to the central database are what’s actually needed. 
 
and for THOSE I’d be willing to pay a rental tax. 

Not yet, it isn’t. 

Wiping will solve nothing. It will not magically improve the game in any way, and there will be even less content since all user made stuff will now also be gone.

Can I have your stuff?
