Portal Address System
The Portal allows fast ground-unit travel to specific coordinates using a 8-symbol address.
- Addresses consist of 8 unique symbols selected from 26 possible symbols (A-Z).
- Players can manually dial any valid address to explore unknown planets or attack players.
- Energy Cost & Portal Limit: Dialing or joining a Portal operation costs 500 Base Energy plus 5 Energy per ground unit. Total energy spend is limited by your Portal building level capacity limit.
- Addresses are discovered via Scouting (Scout Symbols) or by combining Fragments.
Special Portal Targets
- Subspace Anomalies: These targets require a Portal Rally and cannot be attacked solo.
- Encrypted Caches: These personal targets can only be attacked solo and cannot be used for a Portal Rally.
