Good morning and welcome to the latest release update for May:Phase One!

Fanfest 2025 introduced us to the upcoming expansion of EVE:Legion, launching 27 May.Legion ushers in a brand new era in New Eden, built on unity, ambition, and the limitless potential of cooperation. Highlights included a focus on corporate identity, Freelance Jobs, new tools for sovereignty, and two devastating new warships: the Triglavian Babaroga marauder and Angel Cartel Sarathiel dreadnought.

We can confirm that PANDORA will incoroporate freelance jobs and they will, where an agent requires, also plug into storyarcs and projects at PANDORA. As Freelance jobs are taken, profile histories and activity logs will be updated by PANDAX - something which was implemented with the May:Phase One release as you will see further on.

Let's take a look at the significant changes that have been released for May:Phase One

ACTIVE AND UPCOMING PANDORA CONTENT

On the Home Page, available and active campaigns and missions now sit in their own scrollable section:

Easily see the campaigns and missions that are ongoing with key stats.  SEE DETAILS will now open the full details in its own modal!

The campaigns listings page (accessed via the main navbar) has also been updated to reflect these changes.

The missions section has now been opened in the main van bar to show mission listings.  Mission creation is now yet possible until May:Phase Two.

Advantage Missions

With this release, missions for FW systems to build advantage have become available.  If an FW Plexing campaign has been created, PANDORA will auto-create this mission type which will track advantage efforts.

The way these work are as follows:

• An acting agent is required by adding rewards to this mission type to make it active.  Any number of agents can add their own rewards to this mission.  Advantage tracking will begin from the moment this mission is activated where advantage will be tracked for each of those enrolled on the related campaign and with advantage tracked from the date and time they enrolled on that campaign.
• These missions are bound to the related campaign that auto-generated them and will end when the related campaign ends.
• The defending and attacking faction of the related system will each have their own mission to build advantage auto-generated by PANDORA.

PANDAX in full effect

PANDAX, the Pandora Artificial Xtension, is fully creating Action Reports on all campaigns and Activity logs as well as background histories.  Check out the Characters, Corporations, Alliances and Factions areas in the main navbar to see this in effect.  We have also added video guides to each of these sections to see how they work!

Functionality Changes

The following functionality changes have been implemented over the past few weeks

• FW Plexing campaigns now require enlistment by default.  This is to reduce bot participation.
• FW Plexing is now tracked for each participant from the moment they enlist to the moment the campaign ends.
• Monthly New reports now take place at the start of each month, auto-generated by PANDAX base upon campaign and mission outcomes for the previous month, including a report of any events currently taking place.
• Campaign listings now default to only show currently active and upcoming campaigns.
• Campaigns now auto update stats every 10 minutes when being viewed which also refreshes the leaderbaord, activity and rewards sections.
• All comments are now correctly ordered by most recent last.
• When creating FW Plexing campaigns you can now choose if the advantage % of the system affects the final rewards.  For example, an entry of 20% will grant a maximum +20% boost to al lISK rewards to those involved in the campaign if their faction has the advantage and a maximum loss of -20% to all ISK rewards if the enemy has the advantage.
• On creation campaigns can now be related to other campaigns and can end in success or failure depending on the outcome of that other campaign.
• On campaign creation, a minimum number of plexus or kills can be chosen for participants to be considered for rewards.  This is useful for ignoring those that contribute very little to a campaign which may cause more work in ranking payouts
• All campaigns now have the option to Add and Edit rewards.  This is used for activating inactive campaigns and for editing your existing rewards OR adding your own rewards as an agent to an existing campaign.
• Defaulted Plex Points on FW Campaigns to 0, forcing the creator to make a selection for offensive and defensive campaign types.

UI Changes

The following changes have been implemented over the past few weeks

• FW Plexing campaigns now show system contested % progress charts which also include the ability to view changes over the past 24 hours.
• Campaign leaderboards show positional changes
• Notifications will show in the notifications bell.  PANDORA BOT updates can also be turned off here.
• Copy To clipboard function added to Rewards To Issue page to make it easy to copy the name and amount of ISK due.
• Unseen chats now show in profile header menu dropdown.

Fixed Issues

The following reported issues have been fixed 

• Fixed an issue where additional rewards could be addeed to a campaign by a user not logged in, causing a potential break in the campaign.
• Fixed an issue where toggle favorites on Characters, Corporations, Alliances and Factions areas was possible by users not logged in.
• Fixed a possible issue where plex tracking was intermittedly missing flexing for long periods.
• Fixed a possible issue for combat campaigns where kills in a specific system may not be getting picked up.
• Notification pop-ups now occur every five minutes if any action has taken place and do not repeat the same notification which showed in the previous 5 minute period.

May Rewards

The following rewards will show in the Monthly Rewards section for May in the coming days:

• Most Enemy Plexes captured during campaigns: 2 x random EVE Partner SKINS
• Most kills during combat campaigns in a specified ship type or class: 2 x random EVE Partner SKINS

The Monthly Rewards section will show the leaderboards for these rewards plus any capsuleer that wins a monthly competition will have a star place on their profile page!

MAY:Phase Two

Development for the duration of this month will focus on fully implementing missions and freelance jobs as well as implementing the projects area.  More on this when released.

Until next time!

Hello and Happy Saturday

An update was released this morning with some added content, UI changes and fixes which are as follows.

HOME PAGE

• Fleet Commanders: Populate Fleet Commanders section with Fleet Commanders standings. This includes multiple filterable options such as time period and by stats type.
• Latest News: Action type should now only ever be PANDORA content related or from New Eden news. Any other EVE updates etc should be in the News page only.

CAMPAIGNS

• Ending Recognition: If a campaign has ended, PANDORA will continue to get any missed kills or plexes over the next 6 hours.
• Action Reports: PANDAX will monitor campaign action regularly. Depending on how long a campaign lasts it will update the campaign with the latest participant stats and any other related information. For example a month long campaign would be updated every 12 hours, a week long campaign daily and a day long campaign every 3 hours.

MONTHLY REWARDS

A new monthly rewards section has been added. Here you can see the rewards and qualifying rules for each monthly reward. More rewards will be added here as areas are made live following development

Currently rewards for Top Fleet Commander and Top Fleet member are live.

ISSUING REWARDS

• Campaign payouts: A nav menu now appears 6 hours after campaign has ended which contains a listing of all rewards to be issued to participants of a campaign which the user created.

FLEET ACTION

• Notifications: If a registered PANDORA Fleet Commander has a fleet active in the past 15 minutes a notification will display to those on the website with a link to the fleet action / details page for that fleet.
• Live Stats: With a fleet up and with at least 3 members, the fleet details page will update every 3 minutes for any user on a fleet details page as kills and losses happen. This will also update the stats for that fleet.

PANDAX IMPROVEMENTS

The PANDORA Artificial Xtension has been implemented into various areas. As can be seen above, PANDAX collects campaign progress and compiles reports on events. Two examples of this can be seen in the following campaings:

• TENSIONS IN TABBETZUR: click here to open in a new tab
• TERROR 2 CVA: click here to open in a new tab

These campaign outcome reports are compiled into PANDAX's memory and, together with EVE NEWS and PANDORA events, such as missions, will compile capsuleer, corporation and alliance histories.

WHAT NEXT?

We will be working on the missions system and implementing PANDAX into monitoring mission progress. Capsuleer, Corporation and Alliance profiles will also be worked on.

We aim to bring you a further updates within the next couple of weeks - keep an eye on the site developments plan to see what we're working on

Fly safe o7

Good morning and welcome to the update for March 2025!

This is the first of what will be a regular monthly update - every month - keeping you informed of what happened in the previous month and what to look forward to in the month ahead.

Out Of Testing

We have taken PANDORA of testing, allowing ease-of-use of the site to our members.  A huuuuuge thank you to all of those who helped in getting it through our two big phases of testing. 

While the site is now fully up and running, there is still lots more yet to be added into the site.   The Site Development plan will be continually updated and chnages released to the site as changes are made.  We will announce on batch changes as they happen.

PANDAX fully operational

PANDAX, the Pandora Artificial Xtension, is fully active and can be called on to create the descriptives for your campaigns.  PANDAX is our own Artificial Intelligence, along with Open AI and numerous other tools.  

Together they compile all news and historical entires from New Eden and combine these with the outcomes of missions and campaigns genetered at PANDORA.  These combine to create stories, histories and biographies on PANDORA areas for our members, corporations and alliances.

See the User Guide for more information.

Go Create

Campaigns can be created and missions will be coming this week.  We urge our members to go out there and create campaigns and implement PANDAX to create your campaign descriptives.  We have a large amount of EVE Partner rewards which we will contribute to campaigns which has the content we feel warrants extra rewards from us!

Attention Fleet Commanders

The Fleets, Stats + Doctrines section was part of a phase that was heavily tested over the last month.  If you are a fleet commander, you can create a Fleet Operation and register yourself as a Fleet Commander.

Although this is just 75% complete,  if your fleet has at least 3 members (the FC counting as 1) then PANDORA will track ALL your kills and losses from the moment you create your fleet to the moment it ends.

All of your statistics as Fleet Commander are collected as well as the statistics of the members within your fleet.  At the time of going active, your fleet will be announced at PANDORA as a notification popup and a Fleet Action page will become active where your fleet stats can be seen as they happen.

See the User Guide for more details on this.

MARCH REWARDS

With a huge arsenal of EVE Partner rewards at our disposal we will nwo be issuing monthly rewards.  These rewards will be issued following the collection of statistics, handled automatically by PANDAX.

Depending on the rewards on offer, PANDAX will monitor those taking part in rewards goals and assign wiiners accordingly.  Here are the rewards in place for March:

Top performing Fleet Commander with best Kill/Loss ratio for the month.  Must have at least 75 kills:  250 PLEX.

Top performing Fleet Member with the most kills in a frigate or destoyer class vessel.  Must have at least 75 kills:  250 PLEX.

Most Enemy Plexes captured:  2 x random EVE SKINS.

Most Friendly Plexes defended: 1 x random EVE SKIN.

You will soon be able to see the leaderboards for these rewards in their related sections  AND in a monthly rewards rea which will also be accessible via the nav menu.  Expect this to come this week.

Have fun and look out for further updates!
