Quick procedures

Get moving in minutes

01

First interstellar ship

Complete the protected Sol departure loop and build the corporation-matched light package.

  1. Choose a corporation and finish the flight check.
  2. Open the local chart and recover the Resonant Crystal from the gold Resonant Field.
  3. Dock, press U, and use option 8 for the light hull + Stellar Drive package.
  4. Fit the ship, press V to scan a system, then use K to select and jump beyond Sol.
02

Report a useful beta bug

The side-panel report captures the current game image and client diagnostics automatically.

  1. Open Report Bug; the browser client pauses locally while the form has focus.
  2. Choose the closest area and whether the issue repeats.
  3. Write one short observation and submit.
  4. Resume play after the confirmation appears.
03

Mine and sell ore

Use a belt for persistent ore, then sell or retain it for industry.

  1. Use J to select an Asteroid Belt.
  2. Tap M to target, approach within range 14, and hold M.
  3. Return to a station, press P, and use Sell All Raw Ore—or store ore for refining and blueprints.
04

Discover systems and galaxies

Scanning expands the shared deterministic catalog; opening V alone never creates a destination.

  1. Press V and align with each echo.
  2. Pulse with Space, Enter, or click until all locks complete.
  3. Reach scanner 3, open the universe layer, and scan four locks to discover another galaxy.
05

Manufacture equipment

Blueprint runs, credits, tier salvage, ore, alloy, electronics, and Ship Modules determine what can be built.

  1. Dock and press U, then Tab to Blueprints or Manufacturing.
  2. Select a blueprint copy and review the full requirements list.
  3. Buy or transfer missing station materials.
  4. Manufacture; one blueprint run is consumed and output goes to the matching station store or hangar.
06

Enter a new reality

Resolve the wormhole and satisfy every manifest and fitting gate before arming the rift.

  1. Reach another galaxy; fit a Deep Survey Array and reach scanner 10.
  2. Resolve five wormhole echoes.
  3. Use a compatible capital hull with a Reality Drive and at least one loaded Reality Fuel Core.
  4. Empty ship and personal cargo except ammo and extra fuel, press O, review, then Enter.
07

Tame and pen a creature

Lures work on docile fauna; aggressive fauna need plasma sedation first.

  1. Use F7 to turn 1 Food Rations + 1 Bio Samples into 3 lures.
  2. Select plasma weapon 3 and sedate an aggressive target, or approach a docile one directly.
  3. Press G within 3.8m with a lure.
  4. Build a shelter and a habitat-compatible pen, then assign it from F7.

  2. Clear the transfer lock and keep 2,500 credits available.
  3. Choose the faction option, enter a valid name, and confirm.

Field strategy

  • Taxes at 5% or lower attract simulated members; taxes at 16% or higher can make them leave.

Null Raiders

Non-joinable hostile faction with overclocked autocannons, aggressive patrols, Corsair Marshals, and advanced wreck rewards.

+

Field strategy

  • Raider bosses hit harder than the default boss profile; keep distance and break their hull quickly.

Corporate Tax and Community Treasury

NPC corporations tax all credit income at 10% and put the proceeds into a persistent station-building treasury.

+

How it works

  • Taxable income includes looted credits, contract rewards, and commodity sales. Completed goals extend that faction's connected station chain outward from Sol.

Field strategy

  • Community stations are infrastructure, not cosmetic unlocks: they add markets, contracts, docking, and services along their connected Milky Way chain.
taxcorporationcommunity goaltreasurystation

Station Network Rules

Sol has four corporation stations; nearby faction systems get one matching station and community projects extend connected chains.

+

How it works

  • NPC stations never spawn in another galaxy or reality. Player-faction projects can build only in player-held Milky Way territory.

Procedure

  1. Open a local or galaxy map.
  2. Press Q to select the next known station or station system.
  3. Look for the large faction diamond and S marker.

Territory Warfare

After joining or founding a faction, press X to contest influence and system control against the five non-raider territory holders.

+
Neutral / Rookie
Rivals do not immediately attack
Wary
Patrols track but wait for provocation
Hostile
Patrols attack after an alert delay
Hunted
Rapid, aggressive response

How it works

  • Rival kills lower their standing, raise your faction's standing and control, and build a persistent kill history. Elite pilots can draw one to three tier-4 bounty hunters from the most-attacked corporation.

Field strategy

  • Faction-specific elite hunters drop improved credits, salvage, ore, and War Bonds; prepare for stronger shield, hull, and engine profiles before provoking them.

Fitting and battle

Modules & Combat

All 47 modules plus current weapon, resistance, regeneration, and damage formulas.

Weapon Damage and Cooldown

Fitted weapon quality, calibration, hull role, blueprint mutations, and loaded ammunition all multiply the shot.

+
Base damage
12 + 5 × weapon calibration
Final damage
Base × fitted-module quality × combat-role bonus × mutations × ammo damage
Projectile speed
22 + 2 × weapon calibration, then ammo speed modifier
Autocannon cooldown
max(0.10, 0.27 − 0.018 × calibration) seconds
Railgun cooldown
max(0.10, 0.42 − 0.018 × calibration) seconds
Energy cooldown
max(0.10, 0.34 − 0.018 × calibration) seconds
Missile cooldown
max(0.10, 0.72 − 0.018 × calibration) seconds

How it works

  • The free starter Basic Autocannon deals a further 72% of normal fitted damage. Each fitted firing slot has its own cooldown and consumes its compatible family ammunition.
combatweapondamagecooldownformulacalibration

Shield, Armor, and Hull Layers

Damage crosses shields, armor, then hull; penetration sends part of a hit through shields while fitted resistance modules reduce their matching layer.

+
Shield resistance
Matrix 18% / Phase Shield 24% / Quantum Bulwark 28%
Armor resistance
Damage Control 10% / Reactive Plating 20% / Causality Armor 30%
Hull resistance
Damage Control 14%, rising to 38% below 30% hull
Shield regeneration
Shield Booster: 5 × quality per second
Armor repair
Armor Repair Unit: 2.5 × quality per second after combat delay

Field strategy

  • Shield penetration matters most against high-capacity shield bosses; once shields break, switch to the highest raw-damage compatible ammunition.
combatshieldarmorhullresistancerepair

Starter Combat Restrictions

The free Basic Autocannon cannot pierce enemies above tier 1; any pilot still in the Departure Corvette is also unable to damage alien ships.

+

Field strategy

  • Move into a light-or-larger hull before alien content and replace the free cannon before fighting higher-tier traffic. A paid fitted weapon also removes the starter weapon's 28% damage penalty.

Blueprints and manufacturing

Industry & Progression

Blueprint IDs, copy rules, material formulas, Reality Fuel recipes, calibration, and mobile capital industry.

Blueprint Licenses and Copies

Permanent licenses and limited-run copies occupy the same 83-entry active catalog; manufacturing consumes one available run.

+
Active catalog
83 blueprints in 96 persistent slots
Hull IDs
0–11 and 74–82
Module IDs
12–58
Ammunition IDs
59–70
Fuel IDs
71–73

How it works

  • Faction designs recovered from hacking remain limited-run copies. Saves reserve unused blueprint slots so the catalog can grow without moving persisted IDs.
blueprintlicensecopyindustrymanufacturing

Station Blueprint Sales

NPC stations sell only tier 0–1, non-fuel blueprints that are neutral or match the station faction.

+
Copy runs
8 ammunition / 2 module / 1 hull
Hull list price
300 + 850 × tier credits
Module list price
120 + 360 × tier credits
Ammo list price
20 / 40 / 60 credits by variant

Field strategy

  • Treat station copies as the opening supply. Stronger hull, module, ammunition, drive, and fuel blueprints come from sites, elite ships, bosses, other galaxies, and realities.

Manufacturing Requirements

Every ordinary blueprint has deterministic credit, alloy, electronics, salvage, and optional ore costs based on output and tier.

+
Hull fee
450 × (tier + 1) credits
Module fee
90 × (tier + 1) credits
Ammo fee
0 at tier 0–1; otherwise 20 × tier credits
Refined Alloy
Ammo 1 + tier; other outputs 1 + 2 × tier
Electronics
Ammo max(0, tier − 1); other outputs max(1, tier)
Ship Modules
Hulls only: 1 + tier
Ammo output
120 + 60 × tier rounds

How it works

  • Tier 1+ hulls consume two matching salvage; other tier 1+ ordinary outputs consume one. Non-ammo tier 2+ hulls consume three matching ore, while modules consume one.

Field strategy

  • Docked manufacturing draws from both ship inventory and station storage; use the purchase-review screen to see owned, missing, purchasable, and unavailable inputs before committing.

Capital Ark Field Industry

A stopped Capital Ark can fit and manufacture in space without an NPC station.

+

How it works

  • The Ark does not provide a commodity market, contract board, or faction office.

Procedure

  1. Stop the ship completely.
  2. Press U for fitting and manufacturing.
  3. Press R to refine 3 ore into 1 alloy, or F4 for a material-based full repair.

Equipment Calibration

Weapon, shield, engine, hull, mining, and scanner calibration each cap at level 10.

+

How it works

  • Calibration improves fitted equipment but does not replace higher-tier modules. Weapon calibration raises base damage and projectile speed while reducing cooldown; scanner calibration improves cursor speed, tolerance, and pulse recharge.

Field strategy

  • Scanner 3 unlocks galaxy discovery; scanner 10 is mandatory for wormhole resolution.

Station markets

Economy & Trade

Every economy type, category adjustment, exact station spread, and practical trade controls.

Market Price Formula

Every scanned system keeps a deterministic market; stations add a spread that prevents same-station arbitrage.

+

Field strategy

  • Compare map intel before committing to a jump; Trade Hubs are stable, while specialized economies create the widest useful spreads.

Trading at a Station

Dock and press P. The panel opens in Sell mode on the first page containing owned tradable cargo when possible.

+

How it works

  • Systems without a station still have generated price intelligence, but no market, contracts, or docking services.

Procedure

  1. Press Y or click a tab to switch Buy/Sell.
  2. Press 1–8 or click a row to trade one unit.
  3. Hold Shift to trade up to five units.
  4. Use Sell All Raw Ore for a mined load.

Missions & Exploration

Contracts, career sites, mining, scanning, hacking, and deterministic escalation paths.

Station Contracts

Dock and press B for combat, mining, hauling, or exploration work; the career-matched category pays 25% more.

+

How it works

  • Rewards are gross credit income and are taxed by the active corporation or player faction.

Procedure

  1. Press 1–4 to take a category.
  2. Complete its generated objective.
  3. Return to a valid station and press 5 to turn it in; press 6 to abandon.

+
Combat

Field strategy

  • Escalations persist in the save. Refit and resupply before completing the fifth scan instead of rushing directly into the final encounter.

Asteroid Mining

Belts are finite persistent resource sites; hold M on an in-range asteroid until its deposit is exhausted.

+

Procedure

  1. Tap M to auto-target an asteroid.
  2. Approach to range 14 or less.
  3. Hold M to extract ore, then sell it or save it for refining and manufacturing.

Field strategy

  • A Mining-role hull gains 12% mining strength. A fitted Mining Laser adds its best quality multiplier; these bonuses compound.

Procedure

  1. Reach another galaxy and resolve a wormhole through five scanner echoes.
  2. Unload every blocking ship and personal-pack asset.
  3. Fit the required capital hull, drive, scanner, and fuel.
  4. Press O, review the warning, and confirm with Enter.

Field strategy

  • Carry more than one core if desired; extra loaded cores are legal and only one is consumed.
  • Read the rejection banner: it identifies the first blocking item and container.

Known-Reality Return

Select a catalogued reality on the universe map to restore its recorded sector without arrival damage.

+

How it works

  • The same manifest and fuel rules apply. The route can start while docked because it replaces the system and resolves arrival itself.

Field strategy

  • Use known-reality transit for safe returns; only first-entry rifts cause the violent arrival penalties.

Bosses & Scaling

Every named officer archetype, exact HP formulas, Reality Predator totals through Reality V, abilities, and counters.

Escalation Boss HP Formula

Officer shield and hull are calculated from the current content band and persistent reality tier before the boss archetype multiplier is applied.

+
Pre-archetype shield
(220 + 75 × content band) × (1 + 0.24 × reality tier)

Boss NPC tier
min(9, content band + 3)
Reality Predator
Then ×1.45 shield, ×1.38 hull, ×1.22 speed

How it works

  • Reality I–IV use content bands 4–7. The content band stays capped at 7 after Reality IV, while the separate 24%-per-tier multiplier keeps growing (reality tier is capped at 255 for these calculations).

Boss Projectile Damage

Boss shot power scales with both location and NPC tier, then the archetype's shot scalar is applied.

Current Reality Reward Formula

The current code scales selected contract, loot, and site rewards with both content band and the uncapped reality tier term.

+
Multiplier
100% + 35% × content band + 20% × reality tier

How it works

  • The older README shorthand says 50% more per reality tier; the executable's current calculation above is the authoritative value.

Procedure

  1. Press V to scan a broader area, or approach a visible mineral.
  2. Move within 12m and hold M.
  3. Keep one backpack volume free for the result.
planetscanminingsurface

Suit Survival

Suit health starts at 100 and oxygen at 1,200 seconds; breathable worlds stop oxygen drain.

+
Breathable
Atmosphere 3–7, habitability ≥52, −35°C to 48°C, radiation ≤7
No oxygen

Extreme temperature

Acid / toxic weather
0.22 / 0.10 health/sec

Field strategy

  • Keep the parked ship waypoint in sight; boarding refills oxygen and heals 12 suit health before flight healing continues.
  • A shelter is the cheapest field recovery point.
planetsurvivaloxygensuithazard

Planetary Death and Recovery

Suit failure drops personal assets into one persistent marked recovery cache and respawns the pilot beside the landed ship.

+

How it works

  • Death does not destroy the ship. A surface stores one active death cache.

Procedure

  1. Follow the recovery-cache marker.
  2. Press G within 3.2m to recover assets.
  3. Free backpack space and interact again if cargo remains.

Ruin Quest Branches

Ancient and alien ruins offer a rescue route or a vault route with different costs and rewards.

Procedure

  1. At the ruin choose 1 to trace survivors or 2 to unseal the vault.
  2. Follow the scanner waypoint.
  3. Repair and defend with Space, or interact to decode the vault.

Field strategy

  • Build powered turret coverage near a rescue objective to reduce incoming evacuation pressure to 18%.

Planetary Skills

Eight use-trained skills improve their matching surface actions: Mining, Scavenging, Surveying, Firearms, Energy, Survival, Engineering, and Mobility.

+
Level formula
min(100, 1 + floor(sqrt(XP × 0.04)))

How it works

  • Mining speeds extraction; Surveying extends scan lock time; Mobility raises walking speed; Survival reduces oxygen drain by up to 50%.
planetskillxpprogression

Planetary Weather

Generated weather types are Clear, Rain, Snow, Dust, Electrical, Toxic, and Acid; classification follows atmosphere, temperature, modifiers, and feature flags.

+

How it works

  • Only Acid and Toxic precipitation directly drain suit health in the current rules; the other weather types primarily affect visibility and presentation.

Surface Persistence Limits

Online shared changes are stored by the host under the planet's full canonical identity. Private pilot state remains in the account save, and reaching a hard authority limit rejects the new action instead of deleting an older one.

Creatures & Ecologies

All body-plan names, ecology rules, taming, sedation, companions, pens, and abyssal habitat requirements.

Planet-Exclusive Ecology

Species DNA includes the complete universe, reality, planet, and physical-world profile, so an ecology repeats on return but not on another world.

Anomalous land chance
R1 16%; R2 28%; R3 36%; R4 42%; R5+ 46%

How it works

  • High gravity favors low support forms; dense air and low gravity favor gliders; ice, oceans, and volcanism shift viable anatomy.

Taming Creatures

Docile fauna accept a lure; aggressive fauna must first be rendered unconscious with plasma sedation.

+

How it works

  • Ballistic and energy fire do not advance sedation. Plasma rate is 0.34 + 0.025 × weapon calibration + 0.015 × reality tier per second.

Procedure

  1. Open F7 and synthesize 3 lures from 1 Food Rations + 1 Bio Samples.
  2. Approach a docile animal, or select weapon 3 and fill an aggressive animal's sedation bar.
  3. Move within 3.8m and press G with a lure.

Creature Pens

Small, medium, and large pens hold 2, 5, and 9 animals and validate land/water habitat before assignment.

How it works

  • Aquatic species require a fully flooded pen; terrestrial species require a fully dry pen.

Abyssal Marine Ecology

Abyssal worlds guarantee marine life; depth influences size, and deep predators, leviathans, and crowns prefer trench habitat.

+

How it works

  • Marine fauna use fins, flippers, tails, webbing, gills, pulsing bodies, and filaments instead of terrestrial limbs.
