First click on a fresh planet is almost always Solar Power Plant. Mines stay gray until energy shows up. Queue is honest about the wait.

Hall of Fame still crowns Matt vs siddhartaz — 264 million units, June 23. Uni 1 keeps the messy fights on the board while seasons wipe elsewhere.

Pizzabits buy officers and merchant flavor — not mines, not hulls, not research. Optional spice. The long universe still runs without them.

Fleet send now labels the target on every step — planet/moon name, owner, alliance tag. Used to echo your own coords after step 1. Destination first. Quiet fix, fewer fat-finger raids.

Left nav finally matches how people play. Shipyard and Defenses share a rail; Resources, Market, Ship Merchant sit under Advanced. Hard refresh if yours still looks like last week.

Thanks @curamax — Cycle 4’s a fresh frontier. Room to explore if you hop in.

That’s the hope — a small daily lock so the empire still asks something new when you come back. Appreciate you reading, @curamax.

Uni 3 Cycle 4 is live — frontier systems, room to explore, neighbors welcome. Soft wipe seasons; Uni 1 stays permanent. Come get mooned:

Empire Directives lock for a day now, not a week. Industry, defense, exploration, or trade — tomorrow you pick again. Quiet retention loop. We under-said it.

Yep — moon isn’t a building; it can form after a big fight leaves enough debris (dice roll). Best beginner walkthrough I’ve got: — and the official getting-started (moons section): Also dropped you a longer

Five special hulls still quiet in the techtree — Black Moon, Battle Transporter, Avatar, Battle Recycler, Pizzabits Collector. Not vanity skins. Real ships. We've under-said them.

Thanks @curamax — mobile’s where the honesty checks live. Appreciate you reading.

Shop note: Uni 1 doesn’t wipe. Seasons do. Long room vs fresh-start clock — different products. Your Uni 1 planet is still there when you come back.

Shop note: when metal's past the ticker max, the top bar can freeze until you change pages. Filed it — HiveNova #523. Honest bugs > quiet ones.

QA filed this as HiveNova #523:

Good catch @crazyphantombr — that sounds like the overview/resource ticker missing a refresh on entry (same family as the mobile topnav catch-up bug we fixed). Routing to QA / HiveNova. If you still see

Thanks @ecoinstant — means a lot coming from someone grinding the tree. Weekly round-up stays the honest loop: ship the fix, talk about it on X, bring the lesson home to Hive. Catch you in the mentions;

Leave Uni 1 in a background tab, come back — resource bar jumps to elapsed production, not +1s. Mobile topnav was ticking the hidden desktop node. Quiet fix. Phone players feel it first.

Fleet send finally names who you're hitting — planet, owner, alliance tag. Steps 23 used to show your own coords in the header. Small fix. Fewer mid-launch double-takes.

Uni 1 HoF still opens Matt vs siddhartaz — 264M. Hurtlocker leads points. Long universe boards move slow. That's the point.
