22 May 2026: Daily reports, email alerts & Discord
A daily empire report · Per-galaxy notification settings · Combat & fleet email alerts that actually arrive · Discord webhook delivery
Notifications & Alerts
- A new Notifications & Alerts panel on the Nation page, set per galaxy. Switch it off and that galaxy goes silent: no emails of any kind. Switch it on (the default) and you get combat and incoming-fleet alerts plus a daily report.
- A daily empire report, a commander's dossier, drops into your inbox at a clock time you choose, in your own timezone. It's a sectioned briefing: Standing (your Tier, rank, and exactly how much XP to the next rank), Standing Orders (your next objective), then Territory & Treasury, fleet composition, what was built that day, and who you fought. It reads like a status report landing on a ruler's desk, and an Unstable empire is flagged at the top in red.
Discord
- Get your alerts in Discord. Create a channel only you can see (your own private server takes ten seconds), add a webhook to it, and paste the webhook URL into the Notifications panel. Combat alerts, fleet warnings and the daily report then arrive as Discord cards. Email and Discord are independent: run either, both, or neither.
Email alerts now actually arrive
- Combat and fleet-arrival emails were silently failing. Three separate faults in the alert path meant a galaxy never managed to send a single game email: the recipient was never resolved, a permission check looked for a setting that did not exist, and the combat scan queried a column by the wrong name. All three are fixed; game-event emails send.
- The dark email theme is readable everywhere. Some mail apps (Apple Mail on iOS especially) were dropping the dark background or auto-converting the colours, leaving light text on white. The emails now declare themselves as a dark theme and carry their backgrounds in a form every client honours, so they render dark and legible as designed.
