Hi,
yes the Tax value was correct. See here:

Taxes

Certain playfields have Taxes applied to them for various reasons. Playfields with Taxes: Please press M in-game and read the playfield description. You may need to scroll down to see Taxes. Typically, taxes are applied to the following playfields: ECC System, CSW, the 2 Peacekeepers and the Donor playfields. *If there are more than 200 cores on the Donor Planets. [taxes] How Taxes work: You have to pay taxes for all of your structures (BA, CV, HV, SV) that exist in the taxable pla…

HWS Reputation Points are the lever and important here.

I refunded the tax this time.

I understand that certain playfields have taxes and those are based upon the total number of structures multiplied by some variable rate based upon reputation points.

The number of structures I own on EU server doesn’t change (I have zero permanent structures). It just happens to be the one ship I’m using to do the CSW.

It is my understanding the Reputation Points are transferred from server to server along with the warp, so that the server you currently aren’t in has zero Rep Points. My usual tax for all my structures on NA doesn’t exceed 50.000 with my current Rep Points of 2200+.

Something happens when I do my CSW near the time of day when the tax calculation are done and the server thinks the ship I visited EU is still there and my Rep Points are reduced to zero on that server. At least that is my guess. I may be wrong.

Thank you regardless! If it is my mistaken understanding of the rules then I apologize.

All good.
I think @Jascha was working on it and probably fixed it?
I’m lost in HWS 11 preparations so can’t tell for sure here.
