assets related to Sovereignty, including the Infrastructure Hub, Sovereignty

Blockade unit and the Territorial Claim Unit.

Character Creation and New Player Experience

Two new career paths have

been introduced: Exploration, which teaches players about scanning and

exploration sites, and Advanced Military, which builds on the first

Military career path and introduced more advanced combat tactics. The

agents with these missions have been added to the career agent window

and are located in the same station as the other career agents.

Added new tutorials under

the new category Advanced Military, including information on remote

repair modules, stasis webifiers, warp disruptors, and more.

they do not have negative faction standings or are not participating

in Factional Warfare.

or personal standing with the agent. This does not affect Research Agents

or access to the character location service offered by some agents,

they maintain their high standards.

available in the same stations as the older career paths (Business,

Industry and Military). Here is a list of the agents giving out the

at once.

cans and wrecks as well as for salvaging and mining. Everyone in the

fleet will be notified of all these events. You can then export the

logs as a text file.

revamped so that the sender now always controls which group receives

the broadcast instead of it being implicit to the broadcast type.

The Fleet and Fleet Broadcast

windows have been combined in one along with the Fleet Finder. This

will not enter your old position within the fleet however.
