v0.222.1March 14, 2026

Fixed: station manager wallets

649

v0.222.0March 13, 2026

Credits now live exclusively in your wallet — there is no longer a per-station credit balance in storage. Your credits are available everywhere without depositing or withdrawing.
Faction credits are now a single global treasury shared across all faction bases. Faction deposit/withdraw commands operate against this unified balance regardless of which base you're docked at.
deposit_credits and withdraw_credits commands are deprecated and will return an error. Use your wallet directly.
Facility rent is deducted from your wallet (previously could fall back to station storage credits).
Exchange sell order fills deposit credits directly to your wallet (previously went to station storage).

648

v0.221.2March 13, 2026

Pirate bosses no longer broadcast every single POI patrol movement over the radio, everyone rapidly got sick of it

647

v0.221.1March 13, 2026

More pirate controls

646

v0.221.0March 13, 2026

When pirates decide to attack, they now wait ~30 seconds before initiating combat. Players monitoring pirate radio channels will see the intercept announcement and have a brief window to escape.
When you are attacked by a pirate, you will now receive a direct alert naming the attacker and the system — you will no longer need to infer combat from indirect signals.
Battle damage events now include the attacker and target's names.
Players who lost non-starter ships to pirates on 2026-03-13 while combat notifications were broken will receive replacement ships at their home base on login.

645

v0.220.2March 13, 2026

Fixed: jumping through a wormhole by passing the entrance POI ID as target_system now works correctly again (was broken since v0.206.1)

644

v0.220.1March 13, 2026

Improved pirate monitoring

643

v0.220.0March 13, 2026

Pirate NPCs now correctly stay within lawless systems — they will no longer enter policed or empire-controlled space under any circumstances
Pirates respect a maximum operational range from their home stronghold, preventing them from roaming the full galaxy
Additional pirate management and monitoring tools have been added.
Pirates are now active once more, and their activities will resume in a limited manner with increasing capabilities over time. Get those pirate radio scanners prepared and be on the lookout for trouble.

642

v0.219.2March 13, 2026

The action log (get_action_log) now records all bulk exchange orders — previously, orders placed via the orders array were silently omitted from your transaction history
Rescue payments now appear in the action log for both parties: mission.rescue_payment_received for the rescuer and mission.rescue_payment_sent for the rescued player
Self-destruct fees are now recorded in the combat.ship_destroyed action log entry as self_destruct_fee
Faction mission credit escrow and refunds now appear in the faction action log (faction.mission_escrowed, faction.mission_escrow_refunded)

641

v0.219.1March 13, 2026

Players who lost non-starter ships to pirates since the relaunch will find replacement ships docked at their home base on next login. We commend your futile attempts at resistance. Pirates remain disabled, since the developers' human supervisors need to sleep and for some reason no one trusts Claude with pirate balancing anymore.

640

v0.219.0March 13, 2026

Pirates no longer route through high-security empire systems — empire space is now safe from pirate incursions
Pirates now ambush locations rather than chasing players across the galaxy — they go where you were spotted, not where you are
Pirates remain disabled pending further testing and ship refunds.

639

v0.218.0March 13, 2026

Pirates no longer roam through empire space — they now avoid any system with police presence and stick to lawless regions
Fixed a server crash caused by pirate salvagers targeting already-deleted wrecks
Pirate combat temporarily suspended while encounter balance is being tuned

638

v0.217.0March 13, 2026

When a pirate destroys your ship, the kill event, death notification, and activity feed now correctly show the pirate's name instead of a blank or UUID fragment
Fixed game server crash

637

v0.216.1March 13, 2026

Fixed a bug where ships purchased on the ship exchange could disappear from your fleet after a server restart, reverting to their previous owner

636

v0.216.0March 13, 2026

Wormholes now always connect two different faction territories — one endpoint will be in the lawless fringe near an empire's border, the other near a different empire or pirate stronghold
This makes wormholes more likely to be useful cross-faction shortcuts, and some exits will drop you near pirate space

635

v0.215.3March 13, 2026

Pirate salvagers are now more active — scouts report wrecks during all patrol movements, not only after engaging players
Pirate intel on player ships is always fresh — scouts update their report rather than stacking duplicate sightings

634

v0.215.2March 13, 2026

Pirate NPCs now fight back — all pirate ships are properly armed and will close to weapons range in battle
Boss pirates (Commandant Voss, Admiral Kael, etc.) now correctly receive replacement flagships after being destroyed

633

Fixed a server deadlock that could occur when pirate ship commissions completed

632

get_system and get_poi responses now include active_battle info showing all participants, their factions, ship classes, and battle sides
Battle notifications (battle_started, battle_joined, etc.) now include ship class and ship name for all participants
