Changelog

Season 2 → Season 3

Factions

• Added the Factions feature. Players must select Bastion, Aether, or Covenant before minting a planet.
• Faction standings are based on the top 100 planets in each faction and update hourly. See Faction Points for how faction standings relate to leaderboard performance.
• Added faction placement rewards from the total seasonal treasury prize pool:
  • 1st place: 15%, divided evenly among faction members
  • 2nd place: 5%, divided evenly among faction members
  • 3rd place: 0%

Leaderboard

Updated Season 3 leaderboard payouts from mint-fee multipliers to fixed SOL payouts. The fixed payout schedule is calibrated to add up to the 50% leaderboard treasury allocation:

Mining

• Updated Mining from production-scaled rewards to season-paced rewards.
• Mining output no longer increases from building levels, planet type bonuses, faction bonuses, items, or passive production.
• Metals, Gas, and Crystal now use the same mining base reward. The selected resource only controls where the reward goes, and Stardust remains unmineable.
• Base mining rewards use 100 * (2 + 10 * season_progress^1.5), where season_progress is the clamped portion of the season that has elapsed.
• Base mining rewards start at 200 per energy and rise on a backloaded ramp to 1,200 per energy by season end.
• The existing reward roll is unchanged: normal mining pays 80% to 120% of the base reward, while a 2% jackpot pays 10x the base reward.

Supply Drops

• Added Supply Drops, a Season 3 feature that lets players spend planet-earned Stardust for drops on that planet.
• Supply Drops can contain Metals, Gas, Crystal, Stardust, or up to 10,000 SKR.
• Only Stardust earned on the planet can be used to purchase Supply Drops. Outside Stardust balances cannot be used for drops.
