We changed how heat works on your Relay bays. Here is the short version.

No more shutdowns

The biggest change: bays do not shut down anymore. Before, if a bay got too hot it would trip and sit in a long forced cooldown, making nothing the whole time. That is gone. A hot bay now just runs slower, and it never fully stops.

Hot just means slower

Heat works on a smooth slider now. While a bay is cool it runs at full speed. As it heats up it gradually makes less, down to a minimum it will not drop below. So even a maxed-out hot bay keeps producing, it is just working at a lower rate.

Generators are gone. The Relay Network is here.

For years, Generators were a passive BC faucet you bought, leveled, and forgot about. The Relay Network keeps that BC flowing, but now it also burns surplus inventory into a new material, runs hot under load, and gives you real decisions about how to push it.

Here is what changed, what is new, and what to do first.

TL;DR

• Your old generators are decommissioned at launch and migrate one-for-one into Mint modules at the same level. You get a final BC payout.
• Two bay families ship at launch: Mint (produces BC, same baseline as legacy generators) and Refinery (burns surplus inventory into Salvage).
• Salvage is the new relay-only material. It funds research, bay upgrades, and new module crafting. Leftovers can be used as Mint fuel for a bonus.
• Heat is the new throttle. Bays generate heat while they run. You manage it with bay modes and DX Coolant.
• An account-wide research tree unlocks Salvage-paid upgrades that apply everywhere.
• Per-bay bay upgrades add local capacity, heat resistance, and quality-of-life perks.
• A new quest season, a new pet (raccoon), 6 new trophies, 3 new skins, and 6 new leaderboards arrive alongside the launch.

I’d like to give a personal shoutout to TheCarriedOne#165847 for his efforts in reviving work on Bconomy. He’s done a lot, especially in the way we deliver updates, so if you see him around be sure to thank him for the work he’s done!

Back to Bconomy – there’s no new seasonal event with this update, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on that. Would you prefer a new season kicks off sooner, or would you rather wait a bit longer for more content to land alongside it? Head over to #alerts in the Discord server and let us know in the poll.

That’s all for now! More gameplay updates are on the way – thanks for your patience and for playing!
