Group play: shared XP, party bonuses, rarer drops

v0.1.740 Jun 10, 2026

Kill XP shared by damage, with party bonuses.

  • Changed kill XP to be shared between everyone who damaged the target, split by damage dealt.
  • Added a party XP bonus: +10% kill XP per party member in your system, up to +50%.
  • Changed gear drops from ship kills to be much rarer; generic enemies mostly pay in credits and ore.
  • Added a party drop bonus: each party member in your system raises the chance a kill drops gear.
  • Changed kill missions to advance for every party member in the system when one of you scores the kill.
  • Kept wreck salvage payouts unchanged.
  • Changed tiny damage taps under 5% of the target to earn no XP.
