FLIGHT SCHOOL

⌁Tap once to issue a flight command; dragging never steers the hull

◎The camera follows the mothership automatically while you fly; a two-finger gesture can inspect another part of the system

⌖The command view follows the mothership by default. Hold a planet for two seconds to intentionally lock the camera to it; tap or drag elsewhere to return to the mothership.

→Tap open space to send the mothership anywhere; capture a new planet before returning home

◉One tap sends the mothership to a planet's approach ring. A living owned planet shields you from weapons and debris.

⌁Select a planet to pull the mothership toward its approach ring. Dock inside it and hold position for six seconds to capture it; the permanent law needs no fighter support or defense gate. A new command demagnetizes the hull so you can leave.

⏱To take an enemy-held or neutral planet, enter it with the mothership and hold position for six seconds. No fighters or defense damage are required. A one-minute recapture cooldown follows.

⏱Mothership doctrine controls the guard timer: Relaxed leaders stay on an owned planet for up to 60 seconds to collect its swarm; Legendary leaders must stay at least 10 seconds, capture safely, then choose another uncaptured world. Either doctrine diverts to an owned planet under attack or nearing critical health.

10Living owned planets produce fighters through the protected factory path. Fleet ships can print additional escorts, and those escorts stay with their producer.

◌Every ship is a glowing dot. Hives scatter around the planet in every direction, and the planet's glow grows with the live swarm size.

MAsteroids interact with the gravity wells of planets and suns. Those wells pull loose asteroids into stable planetary belts, and two rocks can merge into one orbiting moon.

◉Moons orbit their planet, cannot repel projectiles, and take damage when a projectile knocks them outward.

GLiving owned planets provide gravity, territory, and protected fighter production. Fleet ships can print additional escorts.

REvery living planet regenerates 1% of maximum health each second.

✦Asteroids are protected world-building material. Ships cannot shoot or destroy them; they clump into moons and planets instead.

△Choose a missile fighter button to spend fleet points on a missile weapon ship.

⬡Choose a shield fighter button to spend fleet points on a shield weapon ship.

◇Fusion ships combine 2, 3, or 5 fighters into one maneuvering ship. Use SPLIT FUSION SHIP to release the component fighters and outmaneuver a threat.

TFighter Ships is the direct roster. Tap a weapon, shield, planetary, or Command Fighter Ship button and spend the listed fighter points.

ⅠⅡⅢDifferent fighter ships carry different effects: pulse, kinetic, missile, shield, plasma, beam, zap, bomber, carrier, medic, gravity, stealth, swarm, and fusion.

◆A carrier ship combines 14 fighters and remains a combat unit. It does not produce new fighters.

▣The Command Fighter Ship is the fleet's commanding hull. Its formation ability can be activated once per minute: Hail Mary, Barrier, Random Orbit, Mixed, Mothership Support, or Tiered Vanguard. Support gathers nearby fighters and can reclaim a lost mothership swarm; Tiered Vanguard places ships by tier, abilities, weapons, and shields.

◉FLEET PRODUCTION — Living Fleet ships produce fighter escorts directly at their own hull and keep them in formation.

+Living owned planets produce fighters securely, while Fleet ships print additional escorts. The mothership does not create fighters.

•Every ship has health and can be targeted, including motherships and fighters. Motherships begin on their homeworld, can be hit by small fighters, and respawn only at a friendly planet. When one is destroyed, its following ordinary swarm is lost instantly. Planets can be targeted and captured by any faction.

⌁WEAPON TIP — Combined fighters keep their class behavior: shield fighters intercept incoming projectiles, missile fighters have unlimited range, and class weapons inherit compatible fighter upgrades. Ship lasers use 90 range (75% shorter); laser ships notice nearby targets within 180 range and close in before firing. Zap and red beam upgrades use 360 range.

◆REQUIREMENTS — Fighter points are consumed immediately: weapon 2, shield class 4, planetary class 2, missile ship 50, shield ship 20, carrier ship 14, fusion 2, and Fleet ships 12–18. Living owned planets produce the base population; Fleet ships add escorts.

☍Rogue fighter groups can capture planets without a mothership. They gain a random special form every ten kills: twin lasers, missiles, or shields.

RRogue ships begin around an orange home planet, collect their own hive without a mothership, leave on staggered timers, and lose that homeworld after a random 15–60 second countdown.

MBright comets arrive at random intervals without a global comet limit. Their tail rocks enter from the map edges; planetary gravity bends their paths, and impacts can damage worlds, destroy them, or seed moons.

☀A natural sun absorbs asteroids and can absorb up to 50 planets. At least five solar flares cross the screen every 30 seconds; additional threshold flares can also launch. A flare destroys an asteroid or moon on contact, and a planet collapses after 10 flare strikes.

⌖Use two fingers to zoom and pan; they never pilot the hull

☼Every planet remains a separate plain world. Planets no longer merge into larger forms or unlock special planetary powers.

☉Massive 256- and 400-planet maps use two huge suns with orbiting moon-suns; the suns define the solar lanes while planets keep their own orbits.

◐Loose asteroids are pulled into planetary gravity wells. A planet can capture up to 100 rocks; collisions inside its belt create unlimited moons, and a landed command hull can claim a loose asteroid directly. After Tier 2 unlocks Tier 12, one owned planet with one living moon can use the single moon-to-mass button or say “convert moon into mass”; the planet then has double default mass, size, gravity, health, and production settings.

↔Planets stay on their own solar orbit lines and draw loose asteroids into their gravity wells. Each planet can hold up to 100 captured asteroids; fighter ships and motherships gently float within the same local well.

!Planets have no fusion, weapon, or upgrade abilities. Living owned planets also provide secure base fighter production and a stable gravity well.

COMBINE FIGHTERS

FORGE POINTS are the live count of every current uncombined fighter ship owned by you; each ship is one point, while classed or special combination hulls are already spent and excluded. Every option has a voice code: the number is its tier and the letter is its option, such as 1A, 1B, 2A, or 2B. Tier 1 is available from the starting live fighters. Higher fighter pages unlock permanently at 20 through 100 owned fighters, then Tier 11 at 1,000. Tier 2 caps at 60 ships, Tier 3 at 50, Tier 4 at 50, Tier 5 at 40, Tier 6 at 35, Tier 7 at 35, Tier 8 at 20, and Tier 8 Command Fighter Ships have a separate law of five. Tier 9 caps at 10, Tier 10 at 5, Tier 11 allows one 1-HP, 100-shield Time Warp ship. Tier 12 unlocks permanently when Tier 2 is reached, has no ship population limit, contains no ship or Warp Ship recipes, and offers five cosmic conversions: one moon can become planet mass, one owned planet with 10 living moons can be ignited as a one-time 10,000-health sun with an asteroid belt, only after that sun exists can 10 living moons around the sun become new orbiting planets, loose asteroids can become moons one at a time, and an unlimited attractor can pull 100 asteroids in from outside the map per press. Those planets can each hold their own moons, and flare-captured moons can fire at enemies. Tier 12 also combines five living owned moons and 100 uncombined fighters into a Galactica ship that ejects a random ship every six seconds. Each output has a 10% chance to be a Teleportation Ship that warps ahead through space, flickers almost invisible, and fires a segmented laser beam, or a 15% chance to be an EMP Ship with a Tesla Cannon that deals 1% damage and has a 65% chance to bounce twice for up to three targets.
