Long forgotten in a pilot’s thatch lies something that the universe has never seen. Among thousands of cargo boxes of empyrean shields, Delquad augs and Kalthi manufacturing parts lies a Titan Mining Laser that just realized it has a mind if its own.
It tried to converse with the other items around, but there’s not a soul among them. The mining laser sat lonely, thinking back to the pilot that left them here. There’s even some sort of connection there.. the beam feels bound to that pilot – neurobound. It knows what they are feeling and thinking and wonder if the pilot feels the same about them. It has its first clear thought. Its name is Titan. Titan the Mining Laser.
Three weeks have passed and Titan, who was some sort of rogue Neuroforge mistake, has figured out how to animate other items. From the storage it was in, it has procured ships and mass amounts of gear and is preparing an assault on Earthforce Space.
Lyceum scientists have never seen anything like it, but given that the machines are growing at a simply ludicrous place, they know they must take action. They have prepared a weapon of their own to rewrite the universe before any sentient items could be born. And they plan to use it.
Dev Notes
- Extractors other then space oats shut off, colonies will no longer make purchases to/from user stations, AI stations will no longer decay goods 7 days before end of the universe. Will be a reminder post.
- Bases, permanent drones, and the credits on active bots will be lost.
- Player ships will not be affected.
- If you’re docked during the reset, you will spawn into the new universe using your docked active ship.
- Careful not to spawn into the new universe in an immobile ship!
- Wild Space will be scrambled and receive a new map shape.
- All other layers will have the systems scrambled but contain the same shape.
- After a universe reset, all of your docked ships will be in a state of limbo allowing you to dock them all at any non-player station. You can use the /limbo chat command only once to bring all of your docked ships back into limbo to dock them elsewhere. There is no longer a time limit.
- You can purchase additional limbos via Limboing Tow Service at Friedman station in Free Market for 5 billion credits each.
