Exclusive to Wayfarer

Features we've developed for use on Wayfarer

Automated Hauler Event

Events

Every so often, an automated high-value cargo hauler drifts into the sector—quiet, heavily shielded, and packed with more wealth than most stations see in a month. No crew, no distress call, just a preset course and a cargo hold worth fighting over.

Cryo Character Hot-swapping

UX

Want to switch to another character temporarily midshift, so you can come back to them later? You can with character resuming via Cryo Hot-swapping! Now you can take a break from medical to play your pirate character for a moment, and return back to medical. All without losing your loadout, nanochat, items, clothing, etc.

More Server & Website Integration

UX

Expanded integration between the game server and website enables shared systems like profiles, stats, logs, and services, reducing friction and making out-of-game tools feel like a natural extension of play.

Persistent Community Goals System

Persistent

Work together to shape the station's future. The Community Goals Terminal is a new station fixture that lets the entire crew rally around shared objectives set by station administration. Each round, admins can define goals, deliver tons of raw materials, gather research funding, or stockpile critical supplies — and the terminal tracks the crew's collective progress in real time across shifts.

Persistent Community Goals System

Player Stories for All!

UX

Originally, only pirates could write a player story to describe their shift. Given a three day shift can have interesting results for more than just pirates, this has been expanded to allow all players the ability to leave a story.

Player Stories for All!

Revamped Station (Dusk)

Map

This revamp refines department placement, public spaces, and traffic flow to encourage interaction, storytelling, and smoother day-to-day operations.

Roleplay Leveling System (RLS)

UX

The roleplay leveling system gamifies roleplay by giving players a level and experience with roleplay interactions. The idea is this system rewards engagement quality and community contribution, not power or mechanics.

Roleplay Leveling System (RLS)

Safety Deposit Boxes

Persistence

Safety Deposit Boxes provide limited persistent storage between rounds, allowing players to keep important personal items and build ongoing character stories without turning storage into hoarding.
