Spaceship Commander News

In the game works system, called "raid system"
It means that when you go on a trip - you fly from your player's station (which is in orbit of planet Earth) into the hyperjump gates of the star system of the selected sector. In the Omega Sector, for example, the first system is Centauri A.

After you appear in the system your journey began. You can do anything - visit planets, mining resources, fight, etc. But in order to save your progress you must return to your station through a special gate. They are called "Raid exit".


If somewhere during the trip you will be destroyed you will lose your ship, but it can be restored by insurance in the inventory at the station. If you leave the game without flying through the exit gate, you will also lose your ship.
The exit gate may be in different systems. For example, in the Omega Sector, they are in the starting system of Centauri A, as well as in the system Proxima.

Added a new location: UFO landing site.
It is located on the planet "Ituno" in the system "Centauri B"
Note that this planet is very cold and not every crew member can be safely to be there

In the next update, a "system of generated quests" awaits us!
First quests will be of next types:
- Combat to destroy a concrete enemy,
- Transport to deliver a different volume of cargo
- Reconnaissance
- Research.

It's important to know that every crew member of your ship, whether it's a bot- character or a player-character has its own field of view and range of vision.

Sometimes enemies or resource containers may be behind an obstacle and then the character will have to bypass that obstacle to detect the object.

To see the range of a particular crew member you need to activate the tactical mode and highlight crew member, then you will see a circle that shows how far the character sees.
The same applies to space battles. You do not know who is on the enemy ship until your crew member land there (in the future, planned modules, which scanning the enemy ship).
So, for find, for example, a treasure of pirates you will have to research big areas of the locations!

Today you will learn how to buy a new ship and install modules and crew on it.

The first thing you need to do is buy the hull of a new ship. They can be buy at the "Player’s station". To do this, from the main game menu you must go into the "Inventory", open the "STORE" tab and buy a hull.
Next, you must make a new "build of the ship". To do this, click the plus sign as shown in the picture below.


After that, a dialog box will appear all hulls, that you have purchased and not used. Choose one of them. After that, you will have a new ship build.
By default, a new ship has only a reactor. Next, you will need to install modules on it as well as the crew. Do not forget about the crew! Without crew you cannot fly anywhere.
To install the module go to the "STORAGE" tab and near with module you need, click the equip button. Next, all the sockets on the ship where this module can be installed will be highlighted.


To put the crew on the ship, also go to the storage tab and click the equip button. A crew member will be included in the assembly of the ship.


Important: after you have configured the build of the ship, do not forget to save it. This will help you restore the ship with all its equipment and crew if it is destroyed during the raid.

We all love to evolve, and at Spaceship Commander we can become much better than we were.
At the moment, ships of 3 classes are available to us: ganship, corvette, frigate. Buying a new, more powerful ship is a big advance. More weapons, a stronger hull, a larger cargo hold and a larger number of crew, all this directly affects the player’s strength. Different types of crew members with different weapons and resistance to different planetary climatic conditions. Many modules, both military and civilian.
In the game, we can collect or extract resources that can be profitably sold. There is also the opportunity to earn credits for destroying the enemy, for example, winning a space battle, or eliminate pirates on the surface of the planet.
Therefore, I advise you as soon buy yourself at least a corvette and feel yourself as hero. I’m feeling like a Lord of the Universe on a my frigate.
What ship do you have?
