Good suggestion however a complete wipe is not necessary and cahnges can be done in timely steps, start by adding some fuel to maintain energy hungry structures. Make terminals deteriorate over time needing repairs if not they eventually will disappear, etc.

On another point, no one can really prove gamma is broken, we cannot really be sure until it's tested with more players.  Yes, ok Epriton mining was broken but I cannot point a finger at any mechanic, and this imo is just a cause of low population.
