Computer

The computer window is for searching and reference and contains all types of information you may need. At the top of the computer window your current faction name, faction rank, citizen ID and the in-game date is shown for convenience.

Logs

The logs section allows you to browse logs from all different sources. Firstly you can view your personal log, which is a log of everything you do in-game. The personal log will show the log message, how long ago it was sent and if it were sent as a notification (signifying its importance). Like with all logs, you can use the filter box to find an entry containing a specific keyword.

The faction group shows the faction log (every action that was faction specific), any intel obtained about other factions and a treasury log of the transactions of the faction treasury. Most faction treasury logs will be related to structures depositing profits or taking credits for support. Sometimes an entry may have a note, if a persons name is listed this means a person was directly responsible for the entry. In the case of a negative log entry, a hacker stealing treasury credits.

Search

The search section allows you to search for factions by name or people (other players). You can type any part of a faction name or player name to do a search with results showing as you type. The faction search will give you the faction name, its current power rating and number of members as a result, but you can click through for more details about the faction. The contextual menu gives you the option to request to join the faction and, if the other faction accepts, you will automatically transfer faction.

The people search will return the persons name along with their faction rank and their current faction. Clicking through allows you to view more details about the person including any insignia they have obtained and the ships they own.

Browse Ships

The browse ships section provides personal listings of ships as well as options to list ships by various filters.

The first section labeled 'browse' lists the best ships you have access to by ship role. The recommended section lists ships that are best for sublight travel, mining speed or attach power by combining the ship attributes with the best ports your faction can craft.

The guild ships group allows you to browse all guild ships available and the last section allows you to browse ships that are the best for a selection statistic.

Browse Factions

The browse factions section allows you to see factions that are considering the top for a specific area or browse upcoming, new and lonely factions (active factions that have had one member for a while).

Using this section is a great tool if you are considering joining a different faction or wish to transfer ownership as a faction founder.

Leaderboards

The leaderboards section allows you to compare your progress with other players by viewing the top players in different sections with nearly all of the stats updating live. You can do a similar thing by viewing the factions leaderboards and with both you can click through for more information - just like in search.

Lore

The lore section contains news, story and the codex.

The news section details the current status fo the Mechanical Fleet were as a news entry listing allows you to browse historical news articles sent.

The story group provides an archive of the story chapters you have found as you have progressed through the game. Each chapter also contains a hint on how to unlock the next chapter.

As players progress through the game they will collectively find audio logs, these are logs that could be from the past, present or future. As these are found they will appear for everyone in this group and finding a log is a monumental achievement along with a high reward. Audio logs can be listened to by anyone in this group.

The codex lists all the codex entries you have obtained by performing related activities. The list includes the codex title and how long ago you obtained the entry. You can click through to read the codex entry as well as change the filter to show codex entries from different categories.

Boosts

Boosts are temporary effects that apply to the entire universe for a few hours. You can review the current boost from this section as well as the queue of the boosts coming next. If you have a B-Chip spare you can use it to buy a boost here as well, adding it to the queue.

Surveys

Sometimes surveys will be run to gain opinion from players directly. When a new survey is posted this is stated in the chat stream as well as in Discord. Visiting this section you will be able to complete any active survey.
