Stranded? Pods can get you home

v0.1.676 Jun 8, 2026

Escape pods warp toward safety, and a new self-destruct gets you back to HQ.

  • Escape pods can now warp to any system at or below your current system’s warp level, so a pod can always limp toward safer space.
  • Added a Backspace self-destruct: hold it in a ship to scuttle into an escape pod right where you are.
  • In a pod, tap Backspace and confirm to warp straight back to your faction headquarters for a 10% credit fee (unaffiliated pilots return to the Reach center).
  • Prefer a different key? Rebind self-destruct under Settings > Controls.
