From Evelopedia:

Insurance payout values are dynamic (effective since the release of Tyrannis). This means in short that you can choose to insure your ship at a price where the payout will be calculated at the time of the ship loss based on the (then) current market prices and the type of ship you were flying at the time.

What this means is that after every set insurance period, an index will be created calculating the trimmed average values for all building materials that are used in the building of ships (minerals, T2 and T3 components) and when a ship is destroyed, this index will be used to calculate the full replacement value of that ship based on the materials required to build it.


Has anyone an idea how big those intervals are? Or does this mean that it gets updated whenever I buy an insurance? That doesn't seem to be the case though since right now best insurance on T1 ships only gets you about 50% of the money back.

It seems to me that IF it's updating, it's as slow as molasses in Januari.

You may want to file a bug report.

If you take all the sand out of the box, only the cat poo will remain.

All I see here is someone crying that their risk reward ratio changed.
