Check out more details below.

What’s new in Elite Dangerous 1.44 (June 17, 2020)?

Commodity Market

• Reduced repeat speed on market selection arrows on Compare Market screen.

Mining

• Reduced the largest possible yield when subsurface mining for Low Temperature Diamonds by around 25%.
• Decreased the effectiveness of the peripheries of Low Temperature Diamond hotspots.
  • Overlapping hotspots for Low Temperature Diamonds, when coupled with the new Subsurface Mining changes, were more effective than the centre of the hotspot itself. This change increases the drop-off of the hotspot’s ring, reducing the likelihood that a double-overlapped hotspot is more lucrative than either of the hotspot’s centrepoints. A well-placed triple hotspot will still be very effective at increasing the likelihood of finding Low Temperature Diamonds. This change does not affect any other hotspots or minerals.
