Hi explorers,
This time we will bring to you the introduction to the upcoming brand-new gameplay—the Identity Agreements.
When entering the Lagrange Network, every player has to select their own identity and stance. You signed the Dawn Accord at the City of Antontas, from which you set off for a different, new star system for exploration as "explorers." Each and every explorer left their own footprints and exploits in the Lagrange Network. Emerging Lagrange Nodes have drawn the attention of more Galactic Factions to the group of "explorers." They offered an olive branch to explorers, so the Identity Agreements were born.
We're going to look at two new Identity Agreements, which are released by the Hayreddin Clan and Jupiter Industries respectively. Explorers can experience the two Identity Agreements in the star systems of the Node Recovery Agreement, Trojite Crystal Collection Agreement, or the Data Rescue Agreement. At first, the veil of one of the identities, Prospectors, will be revealed to you.
Origin of Prospectors
As early as in the Terran Sphere age, the B-86 Manned Spacecraft reached the Oort Cloud by spending over 30 years and became the first of its kind to travel out of the Solar System. It shocked the whole Terran Sphere and ignited people's desire to uncover the mysteries of star systems.
In the following hundreds of years, countless corporations launched space probes into various star systems outside the Solar System to detect planets one after another and collect multiple types of data. Their actions were referred to as the "Great Prospecting Moves" by later generations, and they have become the first batch of "Prospectors" in history.
Throughout the history of the Lagrange Network, Prospectors play a vital role. From exploring planets, and getting to know the geographic environment of star systems, to igniting a new node in the Lagrange Network, each step of prospecting is full of difficulties and challenges. Especially in the detection works of Lagrange Nodes, Prospectors need to find appropriate observation sites for Lagrange points, launch beacons repeatedly to carry out experiments, and acquire relatively accurate warping info records after tens of thousands of experiments.
Prospectors represent not only a career but also an honor. According to the Centennial Exploration History—Final Prospecting Report on the Lagrange Network Reconstruction, it usually takes a lifetime of countless Prospectors to complete the prospection works of a star system.

Prospector Agreement from the Hayreddin Clan
Hayreddin Clan is an ancient Galactic Faction. The records of them can be traced back to the early period of the Gold Rush era. With the collapse of Neptune Minerals, the Hayreddin Clan declared independence and began to run their own star systems and networks. It is said that they bear one piece of the precious "Lagrange Archives No. 1095." During wartime, we couldn't get much information about the Hayreddin Clan. However, they gradually stepped onto the stage of the Lagrange Network with the post-war recovery.
In the Prospector Agreement, the Hayreddin Clan hopes that explorers can complete the detection of the environment of the star system in which they are currently located, acquire important data, and finally submit a "Star System Prospecting Report." To support Prospectors exploring the star system environment, Hayreddin will provide the temporary blueprint authorization of the facility "Prospecting Tech Research Center" to the signatory explorers. Upgrading the Prospecting Tech Research Center at the Base to different levels will acquire different prospection techs.

Hayreddin Clan has specified the targets for Prospectors in the agreement, including planets, Orbital Paths, Lagrange points, and resource nodes. Prospectors are required to report as much data and information as possible.
Targets for Prospectors
Planetary data is one of the essential detection targets. Prospectors need to send utility ships to the surroundings of planets to carry out prospection tasks. You can acquire planetary data after completing prospection. Each time you prospect planets will earn you different information about planets.

Prospecting for Resource Nodes
Resource nodes are the source of resources that all explorers rely on for survival and development, and in some of them, there may be a part of hidden reserves. Explorers can find information about them to mine and collect them.
More importantly, explorers can discover additional "trojite crystals" and "data" from the corresponding resource nodes in the target star systems of the Trojite Crystal Collection Agreement or Data Rescue Agreement to help their Union gain a strategic advantage in the star system development rating.

Prospecting for Lagrange Points
In the agreement, the Hayreddin Clan requires Prospectors to travel to the planets' Lagrange points to make observations, launch beacons, and collect the corresponding data. As one of the essential data, each Lagrange point is allowed to be detected by only one Prospector at a time.
Rating Based on the Prospector Agreement
After completing the detection of different targets, Prospectors will record their acquired data in the Star System Prospecting Report. Each time adding new data will earn you a certain number of Prospection Points. According to the signed Prospector Agreement, the Dawn Points of the corresponding standard will be issued to Prospectors based on the number of Prospection Points they obtained in the star system development rating.

According to the environment detection situation of the star systems completed by each Prospector, the Hayreddin Clan will record the corresponding data and finally get an exclusive Prospecting Report.
That's all about the introduction to the Prospector Agreement gameplay. We will bring you a preview of another Identity Agreement for the Neutrals in the next week. The two Identity Agreements will be available at the same time soon. Please stay updated for more information.
