Fighter Fleet Naming & Planet-to-Sector Deploy

Two fighter-system improvements ship together: a purely cosmetic paid feature (not pay-to-win) and a free quality-of-life action for planet owners.

Planet-to-Sector Fighter Deploy

Go to your planet’s Transport tab and use the new Deploy to Sector section to deploy fighters directly from planet stock to the current sector. No more withdrawing to your ship first.

  • Choose defensive, offensive, or tolled mode
  • Enter quantity (up to planet’s current fighter stock)
  • Costs 1 action point
  • Costs 5 credits per fighter deployed (95% cheaper than buying at StarDock for 100cr each)

Fighter Fleet Naming ($2)

Give your deployed fighter groups a custom name. Named fleets appear in the sector header and fighter encounter modal for all players to see.

  • $2 one-time purchase — unlocks fleet naming for all your ships in the current galaxy (per-galaxy, not global)
  • Not pay-to-win — names are purely cosmetic. No combat advantage, no economic bonus, no stat changes
  • Unlock: Click “Unlock for $2” in the Deploy Fighters modal
  • Name limit: 40 characters, set when deploying fighters
  • Display: Named fleets show as 🛡 Black Sun Squadron — 5,000 fighters (offensive) instead of the generic Your fighters label

This is the game’s first monetization feature. It’s purely cosmetic — fleet names have zero combat or economic impact. If players use it, it validates willingness to pay and paves the way for future paid features (CHOAM Merchant License, private galaxies, etc.).

Note: Fleet names are permanent once deployed. Choose wisely — they’re visible to all players who encounter your fighters.

Content policy: Vulgar, hateful, or intentionally offensive fleet names may be removed by the admin at any time without refund. Don’t be that captain.
