Global Update – Modernization Center & Combat Balance
-
The Modernization Center has been completely reworked. Bonuses are now divided into three upgrade branches: Attack, Armor, and Shields. Instead of choosing just one bonus, upgrading now improves all bonuses within the selected branch.
-
The maximum upgrade level has been increased to 100, with significantly higher maximum bonus values.
-
New bonus types have been added: Accuracy and Evasion.
Important:
-
You can allocate all 100 levels into a single branch or spread them across Attack, Shields, and Armor for a combined build. The upgrade cost per level remains unchanged.
-
For testing and balancing purposes, the reset cost in the Modernization Center has been reduced by 100x until October 19, 2025.
Other Changes:
-
All upgrade bonuses have been recalculated and rebalanced by sector strength. Upgrade points per sector have been reduced.
-
The base shield capacity for all fleets and defenses has been doubled.
-
PvE enemies (Barbarians, Pirates, and Ravagers) now use a new system for generating technologies.
-
Fixed a combat system bug where activating additional shields also reduced fleet attack unintentionally.
-
Fixed a rare combat bug where rounding errors could make a weaker fleet perform better than a stronger one.
-
Fixed an issue where the Lunar Defense Booster was not working correctly.
-
Fixed a bug where moon destruction could incorrectly remove too many fields.
-
Reduced the effectiveness of Achilles vs. non-class Ram ships by 30%.
