Announcement FAQ – Return of Hero Returnee event

General Information:

Important:
This event mechanic works on Unity client ONLY (it’s not working on Flash client)!

Recruit inactive pilots with sending out your invitation codes to 10 players who left the game a while ago.

Gain Returnee Keys when pilots come back and login to their accounts again and complete their daily tasks and event tasks.


How does it work?

There’s a new event window in the ingame-client in Unity.


When the event is running, all active players get an invitation code which they can share with players who don’t play actively anymore via various channels (like TeamSpeak, Discord or other platforms where you are connected).

The invited player can insert the invitation code and can start playing the quests that are available for returned players. Each invited player needs to connect with the player who invited him within 24 hours. The connection is established as soon as the invited player inserts the invitation code and confirms it with “OK”.

After the invited player finished several daily missions and event missions, he and also the player who invited him get Returnee Keys as a reward. In addition, the invited player gets other rewards for the quests that are displayed ingame.

The button where you reach the window looks like this:



Important:

- You only can invite other SpacePilots if you registered 30 days or more before this Returnee event starts and you have logged into the game within 30 days to be able to invite other pilots.
- Players whose registration time and last login time are more than 30 days from the start of the Returnee event.

If you’re playing the game actively during the last 30 days (your registration needed to be 30 days before the event starts and you have to logged in at least once in 30 days before this event starts), you will get an exclusive invitation code to bond with inactive players:




- You can send the invitation code to 10 returning players
- Each returning player can only bond with 1 active player
- You can only send the codes to players from your own server
- You have codes available until 10 players react successfully to your invite and return to the game and if a player doesn’t connect within 24 hours, you can invite another one.

You got an invitation code and returned to the game during the event?

- You will see special Quests that have been designed for you
- The quests are composed of 2 parts – daily quests and event quests that are not repeatable
- You can choose between 5 daily quests from the quest pool for 7 days
- There are 13 event quests until the end of the event
- If you log in during the last 6 days of the event, the task duration will be extended by 6 days to make it possible that you can finish the 7-day daily task.



You invited other players and they connected?
- Great, you’ll get a certain amount of Returnee Keys as a reward!
- With each mission that the invited player finishes, you’ll get the same amount of Returnee Keys like the invited player gets
- As the player who invites others, you cannot see the quests and you cannot finish them based on your invitation


Returnee Key Exchange:

When clicking the „Exchange“ tab in the event window, you can exchange the Returnee Keys for different rewards that are listed in the window. This possibility to exchange the Keys for valuable items is available for the player who invites others as well as for the invited player. The list of rewards and their costs will be displayed ingame.
