When in the same system as your wingmen, exploration data is awarded for all wingmen present, allowing the entire wing to profit.
The first person to hand the data in is eligible for any bonus payment, but if the data constitutes a new discovery, all wingmen present in the system when the body was scanned will be listed as the discoverers.
Would love to join in the fun, but I don't have Horizons - don't know if that makes a difference to instancing.
Horizons only means you can land on planets. Does not keep you from coming along and exploring and having fun. I will add you to the list. Euro or USA group?
And I have no idea if that quote is still accurate. I have never seen multiple names on a discovered by. Maybe the first sell sets the name, but the wing shares the bonus. Not sure. And you have to be in the same wing at scan and sale. Might be hard to achieve for long trips unless you are a real dedicated wingman.
I'm in the UK, so Euro group.
The quote from when Wings was first added would suggest that first discovery bonus credits go to the first seller, but fist discoverer name credits go to everyone in the system and wing at the time of discovery.
I may nip out with my son and put together a few tests to see how it works. You don't have to head too far out to find undiscovered planets, and for test purposes, the systems don't even need to be valuable.
