Flux

Flux is a buildup of heat energy during combat. It rises when firing weapons or blocking attacks with shields. Too much Flux disables key systems.

There are two types of Flux:
→ Soft Flux is generated when you fire your weapons. It vents automatically over time.
→ Hard Flux is generated by absorbing enemy hits with your Shields. It does not vent automatically.

Some weapons generate Hard Flux for your ship when fired. Check individual weapon stats for more details.

Accumulated Flux consists of Hard Flux + Soft Flux. The amount you can accumulate is limited by your Flux Capacity.

Upgrade your Ship Class or build Flux Capacitors to increase your ship's Flux Capacity.

Build Flux Vents to increase the flux venting rate.
