We have been testing the Incursion Project, and it seems to be working fine now.

This is the project data:

God Speed!

Update complete. This si the Incursion info for everyone:

- To go to Incursion system, click the Check Details next to News when Incursion is in progress
- Warning: PvP in incursion is very possible

- Incursion will  happen at random times trough the day, and each incursion can last from 30 minutes to 3 hours.
- Each Incursion will have a boss, Alien Queen etc. and the waves are the Incursion phases that will lead to the final boss wave.
- There will be a total of 12 hours of Incursion each day.
- When an Incursion is in progress, the first line of the News will persist with this news: Incursion in progress... Details
- Clicking on details takes you to a page where Incursion is explained, and a button will enable you to use the Warp Gate provided by the Council to assist in the system defense against Incursion.
- When the next wave spawns, there will be low level as well as mid and high level alien fleets to fight.
- Once in the Incursion area, a timer will display ETA for next wave. This will ensure that everyone will know when the next wave will come and because of the 3 seconds delay in attacks if there are more commanders in Incursion all will have a chance to attack the alien fleets.
- ETA will be every 7 minutes. This will give time for the other commanders to secure the position and eliminate the competition if at all possible as the competition can and will use the Warp Gate to return to Incursion area if they warp away.
- Rewards will depend on alien fleet power fought, but with a very high random effect, with even small fleets droping nice loots.
- News will also update in the event of a very high or extremely high loot drop
- the Incursion star system will be random
- the aliens will make Incursion in system that has no station present
- the building of station during Incursion will not be possible
- system fleets won't have any effect during Incursion but will not be deploy-able during Incursion. If there are system fleets present when Incursion starts, they will retreat to the commanding mothership.

- Evasive maneuvers, when you take a lot of damage and enter the nebula that is negated in Incursion, the mothership AI will enter evasive maneuvers and can not be attacked for 1 minute to give the victim time to resupply / counter / get away.
- The alien waves will appear in the Full System scan / Full assault room like blinking red alien fleets. Clicking them will open up the war screen to attack them.
- basically the whole Incursion battle will happen in the Full System scan / Full assault room. In the star system you will see the Incursion wormhole, clicking on it takes you to Full System scan.


Other updates:

- there is also a mouse over update over items to make them display properties without having to click on them in Mission contracts and Incursion loot. Make sure you hit F5 on the browser for them to work.

That was me and if you had stopped coming back in to the system you would not of lost any ships since I only had a 5% chance of you not jumping away. Also if you had read the disclaimer before jumping to the incursion you would have noticed that nebs don't work in the incursion system.

Also Sir Emi I'm getting billions of market goods from Incursions how in the heck are we to get rid of them CHOAM will only but 500k to 1 Mill at a time?

- While the trade goods idea was interesting, it's going to be changed from aliens giving x trade goods worth x credits to:
"You found Alien parts and alloy worth x credits" and then the items list.

- the Incursion has the possibility of droping all items, except that the more useful items are more rare then in encryption contracts...
- in encryption contracts the quantity is lower then in Incursion, as you know, but the chance of finding more useful items is greater

In conclusion encryption and Incursion should even each other out, giving the commander the choice of how he wishes to advance, Incursion offering more PvP, while the encryption contracts more PvE.

God Speed!
