The 3 level III restriction in Eridani applies to shops. Not to randomly generated loot. It's rare, but possible to find level IV equipment.
Centauri Camps and Charon Outposts both use trConsumables2, trMajorItem2, and trMinorItem2, which all have have level=2 levelcurve=2 so they can produce anything from level 0 to 4.
Another Korolov oddity:
Just finished a mission and the freighter docked but didn't give the "mission complete" popup, and now that Korolov station is effectively off limits as trying to dock with it just yields the message "The freighter you are escorting is already on it's way" before kicking you out into space again.
Looking at it, it looks like the ship in question hasn't lined up right. Image
it happened with me, but on a Mission for the CSC's, I killed a Phobos for them, but the missions didn't ended...(until I killed one of my Escort ships, those Britania that they give...)
Other wierd thing...3 of my devices(shield, TeV9, Dual-particle beam...) was ionized, I saved the game...to play later...when I was ionized, than I load the save game...await until the ionization ends...Everything was ok, then I jump to other system, guess what?! I was ionized again, and everytime I save(after-ionization pass), those 3 devices appear as ionized...
...This for 8 systems, then the game crashes, and I get a error, entering on stargate(game closes with a error message), or if I try to save(game just closes)...
I lost 3 save games...until now...
I was playing with a Tripoli-class....(yeah, playership drones...)

Funny, this problem happened to me back in 1.05.

I noticed changes to the Sung fleet in Huaramarca. The main fleet seems to consist mostly or entirely of Earth Slavers. The huge swarm of Wind Slavers escorting the Earth Slavers are gone. Also, the Dragon Slaver appears much sooner. I must admit this helps players who do not have endgame equipment a better chance of mission success.

I don't think that was intentional on my part. And I don't remember changing anything in that area...curious.
I'm new so not sure if this it the right place to post, but the Krolov shipping company gave me the rank of hero for blowing up the big fancy frigate the pirates had. I haven't even been to the Charon system. I'm not sure what awaits me in that system as I'd expect the Krolov station to be blown up and the objective of blowing up the main Pirate base to come up, but I already have the award for destroying the base. No mods are installed.
Yeah, it's not a bug (as in it happens normally), but might be more of a storyline/pacing issue. Some players avoid the Kronosaurus because after destroying it you can't take missions anymore.
The award for destroying the Charon base isn't the hero/Legend status, but more of the "I'll give you some random item" which can range from Targeting Roms to a mule auton.

Count me as one of them. If it spawns, I usually abandon the system until I am ready to get Volkov, who is very handy when you get him; after finishing all missions for the cash and possible class V, of course. If I get a lucky EMP cannon drop, I will use it to stunlock the Kronosaurus for minutes at a time, so I can go about my business in the system.

Same here; I definitely try to avoid it because I want to get the item rewards; if I didn't end up skipping the possibility of a Mark V (just about the only Pre-Stk shield that I will bother with; usually if I Don't get that or the invincible, I end up taking my stock Hull plate ionizer as far out as jiang's star until I can get something that is 'sufficiently awesome' to merit the drain on my power.)

Actually, the reward varies quite a lot:
If you've saved korolov (which in vanilla, is not particularly easy), then you get stuff like X-ray laser, omni-particle (eurgh), or potentially a Class V deflector. If you haven't, you get a field crystal, regen nanos, that sorta thing.
Since e & f are non-functional for me, I've been playing d some more and found something odd.
The Domina powers seem to charge sporadically, and then not at all.
On my last run through I got to use Ingenuity & Nebula Sight twice each and Defend a half a dozen times before they just didn't come back.
