Vektra Legacy

Trade it. Rule it. Or rob it blind.

A living galaxy of warp lanes, drifting markets, and eight governments with vaults worth cracking. Every trade moves real prices. Every theft has a witness. Every season, the chart is redrawn and the race starts over.

Every captain picks a side of the ledger

One ship, one reputation. The galaxy keeps the books either way.

The lawful run

trader · colonist · magnate

Work the spreads. Prices move with real supply — buy gluts, sell famines, and watch your own hauling reshape the market.
Found colonies. Claim worlds, queue production, and list your goods at prices you set.
Sleep in Federation space. Inside the gold cluster, no one can touch you.
Earn standing. Honest commerce builds alignment — and alignment opens doors.

The outlaw run

thief · smuggler · legend

Rob the till. Start small: port strongboxes in low-security space.
Work your way up. Planetary vaults. System treasuries. Then the regional reserve — the score they name seasons after.
Pay the price. Cross the line and the Federation revokes your protection. Police fire on sight. Bounty hunters take notice.
Get rich anyway. The higher the tier, the harder the job — and the bigger the haul.

The line between them is your alignment — every action moves it. Redemption is possible. It is not quick.

The deeper you scan, the stranger it gets

Galaxy-wide, the books balance — industry, resources, and danger even out. Zoom in and the variance climbs at every level, until individual ports are nearly random. Charted knowledge is the first currency of Vektra.

Eight powers, eight rulebooks

Whoever governs a region sets its taxes, prices, policing, and punishments. Know the flag before you dock — and before you steal.

United Federation

The safe harbor. High security, fair taxes, zero tolerance.

What's new

Recent additions and fixes. The galaxy keeps evolving between seasons.

v0.62 July 2026

NEW Avoid sectors: flag a system and your autopilot plots around it. Manage your list from the Computer menu.
NEW Rebuilt the left-hand controls — commands are now grouped into Navigation, Tactical and Computer, so things are where you would expect them.
NEW The Wire, Mail, Alliance, Ranks and Settings now sit in an always-visible strip, with unread counts at a glance.
NEW Collapse the controls to icons when you want more room for the star chart — your layout is remembered next time.
NEW Less-legal opportunities moved beside the sector listings, next to the targets they apply to.
FIX Setting a password on a ship no longer reports an error after it saves.
FIX A stray button no longer lingers in confirmation dialogs.

v0.60 July 2026

NEW Rename your ship — re-register her at any Shipyard for a fee.
NEW Jettison cargo on the fly to free up holds, no docking required.
NEW Space colonists in an emergency — though killing them drags your alignment down.
NEW Lock a ship with a password: only you can pilot her, and rivals can't claim her if she's left adrift. A failed break-in alerts you.
FIX Cleared a stray button that could linger in some confirmation dialogs.
