What changed

Raider Engagement

• Hostile Raider NPCs now show an Engage action directly in the sector view.
• The X keyboard shortcut now targets hostile Raiders first, then falls back to neutral NPCs.
• Raider combat now uses the same direct combat flow as other NPC attacks without requiring you to warp out and back in.

Captain’s Journal

• Historical backfilled Q-cannon death events no longer display placeholder text saying the Q-cannon spent 0 resources.
• Backfilled/estimated events now say the resource spend is unavailable for that historical event.
• Live Q-cannon events with real resource-drain data still show the exact resource spend.

Oceanic Planets

• Oceanic planet fighter storage increased from 2,000 to 12,000.
• This better matches their large population capacity and high fighter production potential.

What this means for play

• Raiders are easier to fight intentionally when they remain in your sector after the entry encounter.
• The Captain’s Journal is clearer about which old Q-cannon events were estimated.
• Oceanic colonies can stockpile a more useful defensive fighter reserve before production pauses at capacity.
