It's a little early in this games lifetime to be using the "I hate this change so much I won't play anymore" card =)

Yes the logistics is working by the level of the building now and not the number of structures, Military units are working in a similar way. Going by a building count makes adding another building at level one potentially devastating to the rest of your economy until it gets to a higher level. Having a level 10 building count as much as a level 1 considering one makes 100x the production is a good argument. Going by level makes a lot more sense. Going by production works also but it would take away from the "higher level structures are more efficient that many smaller structures" mechanic. The purpose of the logistics was to soft cap a corporations maximum size. We can't allow a single corp to eventually have 1,200 structures and owning every planet in a solar system. It also needs to be low enough to make it increasingly difficult to produce a wide variety of goods that combine to the higher tier products. You should be able to get into a couple of them solo, but not several easily. That's where contracting with others comes in.

Military goes by level of the unit for GROUND UNITS only, ships go by their size stat regardless of level. For example a battleship is 4 logistics regardless of its level. Capital ships damage ratings vs. ground was upped a lot this last update also.

As for going outside of Sol System. I plan to make every a "Paid" account in a week or so and you can relocate to the other systems if you like. The outer systems should grow in time. There is an event for City ruler ship in place(!). When a city is formed outside of sol there will be an election within the day for it.
