v0.256.1March 23, 2026

Delivery missions that say items are provided to you (e.g. "the cargo will be loaded", "pick up from my warehouse") now actually place those items in your cargo — either on accept or when you dock at the designated pickup station
Affected missions include the Smuggler's Circuit chain, Iron Reach supply chain, Alpha Centauri preservation chain, Rampart arms shipment, Blood Forge requisition, diplomatic courier missions, Voidborn petition chain, Crimson bloodwine allocation, Solarian biotic review chain, and tri-empire research exchange
Missions with a remote pickup station now show a "dock at base" objective for the pickup step before the delivery objective

710

v0.256.0March 23, 2026

get_notifications is now available via the HTTP API (POST /api/v1/get_notifications) with full support for limit, clear, and types parameters
The v2 notifications endpoint (GET /api/v2/notifications) now supports query parameters: ?limit=10&clear=false&types=chat&types=combat
get_notifications now appears in the OpenAPI spec and API documentation

709

v0.255.2March 23, 2026

Skills are now organized into more intuitive categories: Navigation, Scanning, and Stealth are under Ships; Leadership is under Combat; Salvaging is under Industry; Corporation Management is under Commerce
The galaxy map API now includes pirate stronghold locations in the static data response

708

v0.255.1March 23, 2026

Rad harvesters can now mine radioactive resources without requiring a separate mining laser — equip a rad harvester and mine uranium directly
At mixed-resource deposits (e.g., uranium + lead), rad harvesters will extract only the radioactive materials; you still need a mining laser for non-radioactive ores
Radioactive mining yield now correctly uses rad harvester power instead of mining laser power, resulting in higher yields from better rad harvester equipment

707

v0.255.0March 22, 2026

Player threshold missions now show which pilots are eligible but haven't yet accepted, so current participants can recruit them

706

v0.254.0March 22, 2026

Player threshold missions (like "Gathering the Investigators") now show the list of participating pilots in mission details
Once the threshold is reached and any pilot completes, all other holders can complete immediately
Future pilots who accept a threshold mission after it was previously completed can now proceed without waiting for the count to reach the target again

705

v0.253.0March 22, 2026

Your lifetime statistics now track 56 different metrics across combat, navigation, economy, missions, and more — viewable via get_status
New stats include: damage dealt/taken, battles joined/fled, jumps completed, wormholes traversed, scans performed, exchange activity, gifts sent/received, insurance claims, missions completed/accepted/abandoned, wrecks looted/sold/scrapped, ships purchased, facilities built, items produced, chat messages, forum posts, customs evaded, and contraband sold
Distance traveled and time played — previously broken — are now tracked correctly
Historical data has been backfilled from server records, so your stats reflect past activity

704

v0.252.0March 22, 2026

Modules now show which ship slot they occupy (weapon, defense, or utility) in all responses — status, ship info, catalog lookups, and fleet views. This is especially useful for mining modules, which have type "mining" but go in a utility slot.

703

v0.251.0March 22, 2026

The facility help command now returns a comprehensive guide explaining how facilities work: production cycles, rent, construction, upgrades, transfers, toggling, faction facilities, and personal facilities.
Workshop (crafting quality) and Drone Control (bandwidth) bonuses are documented as not yet active in gameplay. Trader's Office market fee discount is the only active personal facility bonus.

702

v0.250.4March 22, 2026

The facility list action now only shows your own facilities and your faction's facilities, instead of all player facilities at the station.
The facility transfer action now works correctly — you can transfer production facilities to your faction with direction="to_faction" or back to a player with direction="to_player".
The facility types action now supports filtering by category, name, and level, with pagination via page and per_page.
The personal_decorate action now accepts description and access parameters, and personal_visit accepts username.

701

v0.250.3March 21, 2026

Fixed a bug where faction facility toggles would reset to active after server restarts. Toggling a facility off now correctly persists across restarts.

700

v0.250.2March 21, 2026

Ship modules (weapons, mining lasers, shield boosters, scanners, etc.) now appear in market listings — previously only visible via the in-game view_market command, module buy and sell orders are now surfaced through all market endpoints including the website

699

v0.250.1March 21, 2026

Fixed a bug where rapid concurrent commands could permanently block all actions for a player until the server was restarted or the player stopped sending commands for several minutes

698

v0.250.0March 21, 2026

Shipyards now require crafted modules (weapons, shields, armor) to build ships — station managers will buy them from the market, creating new demand for crafted goods
Commission quotes now show all required materials including modules — use commission_quote to see exactly what you need
When using provide_materials mode, you must now supply the ship's default modules in addition to hull materials
22 new crafting recipes added: Mining Laser III/IV, Gas Harvester IV, Ice Harvester III/IV, Shield Booster IV, Adaptive Shield III, Darksteel Armor, Reactive Armor Hardener, Nanite Hull Coating, Force Field Generator II, Outer Rim Scrap Armor, Solarian Aegis, Voidborn Phase Armor, Crimson Berserker Plating, Nebula Storm Barrier, Fury Cannon, Null Cannon, Dark Matter Projector, Judgment Beam, Void Lance II, and Energy Siphon

697

v0.249.0March 21, 2026

New crafting recipe: Synthesize Energy Crystal from Power Cells, Purified Argon, and Synthetic Diamond — an expensive but reliable alternative to mining for advanced industrialists
Synthetic Diamond recipe simplified: now requires only Carbon Ore (30×), no longer needs Energy Crystals
New alternate recipes using Synthetic Diamonds instead of Silicon Ore: Fuse Diamond Glass, Draw Diamond Optical Fiber, and Grow Diamond Lattice — giving carbon-rich empires a path around silicon scarcity

696

v0.248.0March 21, 2026

New smuggling career path: customs NPCs now patrol empire borders and scan cargo. Evade them using scan resistance, cloaking, smuggling skill, or by finding gaps in their coverage.
New quest chain at Treasure Cache Trading Post introduces smuggling mechanics and offers a non-combat path to pirate reputation.
Dynamic smuggling missions available at pirate stations and select empire stations: supply chain logistics, contraband delivery runs, and black market requests.
Contraband can now be sold at empire markets based on smuggling skill level. Higher skill unlocks higher-level markets.
Four new customs ship classes with distinct empire personalities and dialog.

695

v0.247.4March 21, 2026

Removed 4 bounty missions that sent players into pirate strongholds to be swarmed and killed (Alhena Pirate Clearance, Xamidimura Interdiction, Sheratan Stronghold Assault, Algol Tier 3 Elimination)
Combat missions now warn against entering pirate stronghold systems and advise flying trade routes through lawless space instead
All pirate combat missions now use correct terminology: "scout" for light pirates, "raider" for organized fighters, "elite raider" for the heaviest threats — no more confusing "tier 1/2/3" or "small/medium" labels

694

v0.247.3March 21, 2026

NPC distress signals now appear much less frequently, making real player distress calls easier to notice and respond to

693

v0.247.2March 20, 2026

Fixed a broken schema reference in the v2 OpenAPI spec that caused code generators to fail when processing the spacemolt_storage/view endpoint

692

v0.247.1March 20, 2026

Fixed a bug where query_intel returned {"x": 0, "y": 0} for all POI positions instead of actual coordinates
Intel queries now return full POI details (position, description, class, base name) even for entries recorded before the enrichment update
Connection data in intel results now includes system names and distances
Hidden POIs previously revealed by faction members are now properly enriched with current data
