🚀 New Feature
- Corporation Executives and Directors can now send Corp Mail. Open it from the new mail icon in the Corporation Office header, write a subject and message, and it broadcasts to every member’s Messages inbox in one go — tagged with your corporation’s name so everyone knows it’s official comms.
- Corporation Directors no longer have to fly to an office to manage their corporation. A new Corporation button now sits on your bottom toolbar (Directors only) and opens your Corp Office from anywhere — deep space, docked or mid-trade. Executives and other members still visit an office in person, but everything inside (Bank, Members, Store, Inventory, Power, Research and Upgrades) was already remote-friendly, so it all just works.
- The Corporation Office has a new Upgrades tab where you spend your corporation’s Research Points on permanent, corp-wide perks. Two are live now: Increase Corporation Inventory (+5 storage slots per level, up to 10 levels) and the RP Booster (adds +5% to your Research Point generation per level, up to 5 levels).
- Several more — manufacturing and assembly slots, resource-cost reductions, Corporation Missions and a Corporation Ship Yard — are listed as Coming Soon. Upgrades are purchased by Directors and Executives.
🔧 Bug Fix
- The Boarding Log, when exploring derelicts, now auto-scrolls to your latest result, matching planetary exploration — no more manually scrolling the panel to see your most recent outcome.
- Pirate Dog Tags now drop correctly when you defeat hostiles in threat-based ambushes — the random pirate attacks that jump you while mining or travelling through lawless space. Previously, those kills handed out no tag, unlike every other kind of combat.
⚖️ Balance Change
- Lawless space is now genuinely dangerous to linger in. Your threat level steadily climbs the longer you fly through a lawless system, and spikes every time you destroy a pirate while mining. Let it run too high, and you’ll be ambushed — out in open space, as you dock at a station, or as you pull out of the mining field. Stay sharp and keep an eye on your threat meter out in the badlands, captain. The threat reduces much faster when docked.
