As a couple of you have asked me some questions about our fleet's assets & projects, I wanted to post something that would give everyone an explanation of what they are, what they provide for us, and what it takes for us to obtain them.
We currently have six assets (which you can see via the "Holdings" tab of the fleet window) in various stages of development:
With each asset, as we finish different tiers, it not only looks nicer, but it also gives us additional capabilities, equipment and enhancements. To finish these tiers, we must first work on projects in each of the different areas of the asset. As we work on each area, we earn XP, which is what the asset needs in order to upgrade. Below are links to the different projects:
As you can see, there are a lot of projects to pick from, but we don't just select projects arbitrarily. In order to get to our top tiers as fast as possible, we pick projects that will gain us the most XP. From time to time (as needed,) we will also select projects that will return provisions, which fleet members use to obtain different items that cannot be obtained anywhere else. Once an area or the asset has enough XP, then we have to complete an upgrade project. There are upgrade projects for each area as well as the asset.
Lastly, there are special, limited time projects that are made available every so often. These add different enhancements to the different assets.
Sometimes, we have multiple projects going at a time, and on multiple assets. When a fleet member is looking to donate to a project, please keep in mind that the fleet has set projects in the following priority order:
Since we have multiple assets, please look through all of them and determine which project is the priority before donating. We will also update the "Message of the Day" to notify you of the priority.
If you have any questions, please ask.
