Asteroid makeup resetting in some systems

Jul 19, 2022 Snib link
Since apparently this is neither intentional nor known to you guys: at least the following systems do regularly change the mineral composition in their asteroids:

Dau L-10, Daul L-11, Itan J-11, Sol II H-13, and Sol II I-13

This may not be an exhaustive list (I feel like Itan K-11 possibly belongs in this list but I had not noted it down as such). While all of these are capitol locations, capitol locations in other systems are not affected.

I do not know when exactly they change, I was just assuming it was upon server restart but it may be different intervals. For the systems above, when I tested them, I scanned them one day, then scanned them again the next day and they had changed.

This has been happening since I started playing, but that was not that long ago. I'm not the only one seeing this - quote from discord relay from 2 days ago:

That was about Dau L-10.

Adding a screenshot I took just now (2022-07-19 @ 18:43 UTC) in Dau L-10:


I can check back on that asteroid after the next restart and add the result here. You can see the asteroid's ID in the printout from my Prospector plugin on the left.

And here's what we got after the last server restart:


(screenshot from 2022-07-22 @ 06:20 UTC, same asteroid #295 in Dau L-10)

I had not changed before, only after the restart, as expected.

If you need anything else, let me know, otherwise I rest my case. ;)

PS: I also confirmed that Itan K-11 does indeed not reset, so my previous data had been correct.

We fixed this recently. This should be the last time it will fluctuate, assuming that change made it into last night's restart (which was focused on a different issue).
