A class-and-coordination release: your Core monument now defines a full '''player class''' with empire-wide tradeoffs, weekly events gain a '''Daily Race''', allies can trade in private and join each other's FCS rallies, and the scoreboard finally splits into Research / Fleet / Defense — plus deeper expedition rewards, stronger system yields, and a stricter vacation mode.<blockquote>New to classes? See the full Player Classes guide, or open '''Settings → Quick Guides''' in-game. Alliance play is covered in Alliances.</blockquote>

== New Features ==

=== Player Classes ===

* Deploying a '''Core monument''' on your capital now sets your primary class: '''Warlord''', '''Guardian''', '''Explorer''', or '''Industrialist'''.
* Each class applies empire-wide '''bonuses and penalties''' — fleet speed and attack, defenses, expedition success and loot, harvest and convoy speed, trade fees, and more. Your live numbers show on your '''profile under Class Effects'''.
* '''Support''' monuments still add Sub Class tags and their own boosts; they do '''not''' change the Core class effect table.
* Alliance system missions scale with class: '''Industrialist ~4× System Harvest''', '''Explorer ~4× System Survey'''.
* '''Industrialist''' Planetary Harvesters use a hybrid log+√ curve soft-capped near '''+250%''' (~20M harvesters), so late-game collector investment stays worthwhile.
* Full effect tables, FCS rules, and monument pairings are in [[Player Classes]].

=== Class effects on FCS ===

* Coordinated attacks (including pirate bosses and system conquest) now respect class combat bonuses '''per participant's own ships'''.
* Class '''hostile fleet speed''' is solo-attack only — joining as Industrialist or Guardian will '''not''' slow an FCS rally.
* Mixed-class groups earn a loot synergy bonus: '''+5% / +7.5% / +10%''' for '''2 / 3 / 4''' distinct classes in the group.
* After loot is split by contribution, personal FCS shares are '''Warlord ×1.2''', '''Guardian / Explorer ×1.1''', '''Industrialist ×1.0'''.
* An '''Explorer''' in a pirate FCS fight raises the chance of special drops (tech/nano boosts, relic and monument pieces). Battle reports show class loot, coordination, and synergy lines.

=== Daily Race ===

* Weekly events now include a '''Daily Race''': today's score has its own rank, reset timer, and reward floor.
* Top finishers of the day earn smaller bonus rewards (Champion / Runner-up / Contender tiers), separate from the weekly payout.
* Event leaderboards can toggle between '''Weekly''' and '''Daily''' views; results also arrive by mail.

=== Ally Offers ===

* Trade offers can be marked '''Ally Offer''': visible only to your alliance and '''allied''' alliances (not the public market).
* Ally offers allow up to '''5×''' the normal Trading Center resource batch limit — useful for large allied transfers.

=== Inter-alliance FCS ===

* When opening a coordinated attack, you can '''Allow inter-alliance participation''' so allied alliances can see and join the rally.
* Inter-alliance strikes gain '''+20% boss loot''' and '''+10% debris'''.

=== Granular leaderboard ===

* The player scoreboard can now be sorted by '''Total''', '''Research''', '''Fleet''', or '''Defense''' — so specialists can climb their own ladder, not only overall score.

== Improvements ==

* '''Fleet Templates''' can be edited from Settings (same composition controls as the send screen, without launching a fleet).
* Sensor scans can '''scroll to load farther systems''' instead of stopping at the first page of results.
* '''Vacation Mode''' now pauses '''resource, ship, and defense production''' while active. Activation also requires ship/defense builds to finish, and is blocked while a hostile fleet is inbound.
* Monument upgrade '''spare counting''' now matches the real upgrade target — including when that best copy is already '''deployed''' — so the inventory no longer claims an upgrade you can't afford.
* Expedition '''depths 6–10''' now have proper earning multipliers (continuing the climb past depth 5 instead of falling back), matching Legendary Expeditions + Orrery unlocks.
* Event and trade UIs were refreshed for Daily Race sorting, ally-offer badges, and clearer accept-offer flows.

== Balance ==

* '''System Harvest''' yields were raised substantially: active cycle output is about '''6×''' higher per production unit, and passive per-system common/rare income about '''3.5×'''.
* '''Realm 4 catch-up:''' trailing Realm 4 commanders (by total score) receive stronger expedition '''nano-boost''' grants with a '''ship-biased''' category roll, so late-realm fleets can close the gap faster.

== Bug Fixes ==

* Fixed monument inventory spare / upgrade-eligibility mismatches when the best owned copy was deployed.
* Various class-effect, FCS loot, and vacation production edge cases cleaned up alongside the features above.
* Production side effect to player base has been diagnosed and fixed, required some minor resource rollback.
