¶ Planned for Future Maintenance
Update Sector order since we merged some sectors
- Each Sub Territory has 5 Capture Points. You must own at least 60% of these capture points to retain ownership of the subterritory which means you must retain ownership of at least 3 of the 5. If you lose more then 3 capture points you will lose your territory. If you own more then 3 capture points you will retake the territory.
- If you own all 5 capture points and then Alliance A takes 2 of them and Alliance B takes 1 of them, then you will no longer own the minimum of 3 and ownership will go to NPC faction until someone owns at least 3 of the 5. Make sure you take over all 5 so your alliance has a buffer if 1 or 2 are lost.
- Gold Pressed Latinum will be doubling since the territories now have the ability to produce Continuum Tech.
- Territories can now produce Continuum tech at a rate of 1 per 45min.
- Radar Pings in Discord Channel no longer send messages when nothing to report. (No more scrolling forever)

¶ New Commands
!kotm broadcast on - Turns on broadcast GPS markers for KOTM-related activities.!kotm broadcast off - Turns off broadcast GPS markers for KOTM-related activities.
Note: By default, broadcast is turned on for all players.
- Static Grids no longer show in KOTM space. No more constant red markers for the KOTM Grid or Slipstream Territory Grids.
KOTM rewards now scale based on the number of players in cockpits within KOTM space. Here's how it works:
- Base Loot: 20 Gel Packs
- Additional Loot: 2 Gel Packs per player in a cockpit within KOTM space
- Solo Player: If you're the only person in KOTM space, you get the base loot of 20 Gel Packs plus an additional 2 Gel Packs for being in the cockpit, totaling 22 Gel Packs.
- 5v5 Battle: In a 5v5 battle (10 players in cockpits), you get the base loot of 20 Gel Packs plus 20 more for the 10 players, totaling 40 Gel Packs.
50 Gel Packs can be rewarded at any given time. Get ready to dive into the Maelstrom and earn those Gel Packs! Happy engineering, everyone!
- Sectors 1 and 2 have been merged into 1
- Sectors 7 and 8 have been merged into 8
- Sectors 5 and 6 have been merged into 5
- Slipstream Corridor is now open. Players with a Quantum Slipstream drive can slipstream within 200km of KOTM point.
- Fixed issue where slipstream sometimes didn't read multiple owned territories
- Increase Range of AI blocks to 15km from 2.5km
The purpose of KOTM (King of the Maelstrom) is to promote organic PvP while rewarding the player willing to take the risk.
How it works:
- Every 10 seconds a point it added to a pool. When 1800 points are reached (roughly 30min) 20 Alpha Gel Packs will be placed into the KOTM Cargo Container.
- KOTM Space is always shown as a GPS marker on your HUD.
- Alpha Gel Packs are used to make Elite Phasers. These gel packs can be disassembled and repurposed to make an assortment of other components such as Beta Gel Packs, Gamma Gel Packs and Delta Gel Packs.
- Every 30 minutes, 20 Alpha Gel Packs will be placed into the KOTM block when a player is detected within KOTM space and sitting in their cockpit.
- The player must be in their cockpit for the timer to countdown. If a player leaves the cockpit, the timer will stop. The timer will resume once the player goes back into their cockpit.
- At least 1 player must be in KOTM space and inside their cockpit for the timer to progress.
- While players are in KOTM, their GPS will be broadcast to all players on the server.
- Warp Drive and Slip Stream are disabled while in KOTM.
- Station are not permitted in KOTM Space. Any Grids placed in station mode will be automatically reverted to Ship mode.
Prepare yourself, take the risk, and become the King of the Maelstrom!
