Overview

Loops are runs through the world. You plan a queue of actions, start the loop, and watch those actions execute. Planning your route is an ongoing puzzle that you revisit as the map changes and your exploration improves.

Key Rules

The queue is always editable during execution. Changes take effect immediately for actions the cursor has not yet consumed.
Reaching the end of the queue waits for more actions. A loop ends only when you run out of Energy or your Integrity reaches 0.
When a loop fully ends, the game stays in an "end of loop" state so you can review outcomes. The Reset Loop button can begin the next loop at any time.
The queue projection (the black outline of your actions that shows on the map) does not tell you how things will actually happen, just what actions you've queued.

Overview

Energy is spent at a constant rate per second. There are multiple ways to replenish it, but it remains your primary per-loop resource.

A loop can also end early if you run out of Integrity. Integrity is lost in combat and mitigated by Block. Your Attack value dictates how quickly fights end: higher Attack means shorter fights and less Integrity/Energy loss.

Key Rules

Energy loss per second is constant regardless of the action being performed.
Excess Energy gain is lost. If you are at 600/800 Energy and gain 400, then 200 is wasted.
Fight durations are divided by your Attack value. A 6s fight takes 4s at 1.5 Attack.
Enemies deal a fixed amount of combat damage per second while a fight is running.
Block reduces that combat damage by a percentage, capped at 85%.
Some enemies have Block Piercing, which reduces how much of your Block applies against them.

Overview

Performing an action increases your Mastery. Higher Mastery makes that specific action faster, letting you do more each loop with limited Energy.

Key Rules

Mastery is specific to individual actions. Speaking with one entity does not increase mastery for speaking with a different entity.
This also applies to movement: each individual tile has a movement cost and mastery.
You gain a larger mastery bonus the first time an action is performed each loop. Repeating the action in the same loop still grants mastery, but at a lower rate per repetition.

Overview

Many actions grant Data Fragments. Collect enough fragments and they convert into a Data Card, but the conversion rate increases each time. Data Cards are then used at terminals to upgrade systems.

Key Rules

Interact with a terminal to increase your Capacity stat. This raises maximum Energy capacity.
Speak with a terminal to increase your Integrity stat. This increases maximum Integrity, raises Block, and restores some Integrity.
Fight with a terminal to increase your Combat stat. This raises your Attack value.

Queue Presets

Save Current Queue

Create a named preset from the current Queue Editor contents.

Preset Library

Loading updates the Queue Editor only. The active loop will not change.

Collapse Queue Section

Collapse the selected actions into one reusable route section. You can reopen it later to revise its actions without expanding the rest of your queue.

Section Endpoint Changed

This section now ends on a different tile. Saving will update its expected handoff location.
