Version 4.0.0

2018-February-20

Greetings, Captains!

Version 4.0 of STAR TREK TIMELINES is now live! Be aware that it could take up to 24 hours for it to propagate to all app stores. For Facebook/Gameroom the update will be automatic.

4.0 brings new features, bug fixes and an updated loading screen to Star Trek Timelines. Please note that many of the new features and changes described below will only go live after a forced upgrade to ensure all players are on 4.0. The forced upgrade will occur in about one week.

New Features and changes

Cryostasis Collections (available after forced upgrade) Immortalizing a crew is no small feat, and now Collections will allow you to gain a variety of one-time rewards, as well as persistent bonuses, by immortalizing specific combinations of crew.

Each Collection will consists of multiple Milestone Goals with each goal providing one-time rewards once reached.

Work on the Collections of your choice to unlock the bonuses most valuable to you. Collections will be accessible via the Cryostasis Vault.

Here's developer's commentary on some of the changes.

One bug fix for v3.1.1:

  • claiming pulls in the Time Portal should no longer result in the game freezing.

Version 3.1.0

2017-December-6

Greetings, Captains!

Version 2.2.0

2017-August-21

Greetings Captains!

v2.2.0 is now live and contains new features, bug fixes, and other improvements. To benefit from all v2.2.0 has to offer, be sure to update your game (iOS/Android/Steam) once it becomes available in your app store/library. The update will be automatic for Facebook/Facebook Gameroom. For iOS and Android, a forced upgrade is scheduled for sometime next week.

New Feature: Fleet Starbases (will go live after the forced upgrade)

Many of you have let us know that you want Fleets to play a bigger role in gameplay. With that in mind we are introducing Starbases to STAR TREK TIMELINES. Starbases is a Fleet-specific feature, allowing Fleet members to unlock and earn bonuses for Fleet Members like higher Chroniton caps and crew skill increases. Players will collect Starbase components by completing missions and then donate them to the Fleet. At the recommendation of Fleet Officers, the entire Fleet will work together to build rooms on the Starbase, each of which unlock bonuses.

In the future, we plan on releasing new bonuses for Fleets to earn. For more details regarding Starbases, please refer to our in-depth blog post

Fleet Management Overhaul

With the introduction of the Starbases feature, we’ve made improvements to Fleet management:

  • In the event that a Fleet Admiral resigns, they will now be able to choose another leader rather than being forced to disband the Fleet. Disbanding a Fleet will result in the loss of all Starbase bonuses and contributions.
  • Fleet Admirals may now choose a Faction icon for their Fleet, set a minimum level requirement to join, and set a brief description of the Fleet which will be displayed to players looking for a Fleet to join

Players looking for a Fleet:

  • Will be able to choose to auto-join a Fleet, for which they meet the level requirement and where the Admiral has been active in the last 24 hours
  • Will only see Fleets for which they meet the level requirement
  • Will be able to see the following information before joining a Fleet: Fleet Description, Admiral, Starbase level and last event ranking

Fleet members list:

  • All players in a Fleet are now displayed in a single list, organized by Squadrons
  • Players may now see who is in which Squadron, and invite players not yet in a Squadron to join theirs
  • The list can be sorted by activity level event scores, daily contributions, or the default sort which puts the player’s squadron first

Inviting players to your Fleet:

  • When looking for players to invite, Fleet Admirals and Fleet Officers will be presented with a list of players who are active and looking for a fleet. The list will include event ranking
  • Searching for players by name will also be possible (with the exception of the name “Captain”)
  • Inviting a player to a Fleet and promoting/demoting/removing a player from Squadron or Fleet, can now be done from within a player’s profile
  • Event leaderboards will now be visible inside the Fleet panel and will display Fleet ranking, Squadron ranking and player ranking. In the future, past event rankings will be displayed as well.
  • Fleet invites will no longer be displayed as an in-game mail. They will now appear in the Fleet panel and show details about the Fleet

Developer’s note: Overall, these changes aimed at giving players a little more insight and connection with their fleetmates as well as better flexibility for Fleet management. Joining a Fleet and inviting new members has always been a difficult task, and this update should help in that area. We want it to be easier for a player to start up a new fleet and recruit players to fill it up. With Starbases coming, banding together will be more beneficial than ever before - so we wanted to make doing so as pain free as possible.


New login option

  • A long requested improvement: players with an existing registered account will no longer need to go through the tutorial to be able to sign in with their credentials.

Client Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue where the Message of the Day was not appearing for some players.
  • We took another pass at a known issue where the Warp 1 cost of a mission was incorrectly charged as a Warp 10 when the player had a Supply Kit active.
  • Players with over 1000 items in their inventory should no longer receive an “Item in Overflow” error and will be able to build and equip items. Items in overflow will be dismissed after 7 days.
  • Fixed an issue where a space was missing between level and level number when looking at an opponent profile in Battle Arena.
  • Fixed an overlap issue between Warp 1 and Warp 10 buttons.
  • Fixed an issue in the Get Menu where the word “Episode” was displayed under the Replicate button.
  • When trying to make a purchase while not having enough Dilithium, the “Out of Dilithium” pop up will now display the appropriate Dilithium pack.
  • Fixed an error when playing on Steam, left clicking twice on the Equip button will no longer prompt an error message.


We are very excited to expand on the social gameplay in STAR TREK TIMELINES, and we are looking forward to your feedback.

Version 2.1.1

2017-June-29

Greetings, Captains!

Today we are releasing a new update to Star Trek Timelines, v2.1.1. This is a small update containing mainly bug fixes that we wanted to make available to you as quickly as possible. To benefit from those fixes, make sure to update your game (iOS/Android) once it becomes available in your app store. The update will be automatic for Steam Beta and Facebook/Facebook Gameroom. For iOS and Android, a forced upgrade is scheduled for next Wednesday, July 5th.

Bug fixes

All platforms:

  • Addressed an issue where Warp 10 was charged instead of Warp 1 when a Supply Kit was active.

Steam Beta/Facebook/Facebook Gameroom:

  • Increased the speed of the mouse scroll. This will be visible in specific places in the game such as Inventory, Replicator, Vault, Chat, Crew Management, Away Missions, Shuttle Missions, Daily Missions, and Daily Rewards.

Steam Beta:

  • FPS is now capped at 60 which should reduce the load on your GPU and CPU.
  • Prices shown in-game should now be displayed in the correct currency for foreign currencies.
  • Addressed an issue where some players were stuck in a tutorial loop.
  • Addressed an issue where some players were unable to switch between fullscreen and windowed mode by using ALT+ENTER.

Version 2.1.0

2017-June-13

Greetings, Captains!

Our newest client update, version 2.1.0, is now live! This update contains tons of exciting changes, many of which were requests from you, our players. To benefit from these new changes, be sure to update your version to 2.1.0 as soon as it becomes available to you.

Please note that the last two features listed below will only be activated once every player on mobile (iOS/Android) has updated to v2.1.0. after a planned upcoming forced upgrade, which we will announce separately. Edit: forced upgrade occurred 06/19.

Achievements

  • Individual Achievements have been added and can be viewed / claimed through the Daily Missions Panel under the Achievements tab. Some achievements are retroactively granted after you log in with the 2.1.0 client; those achievements are for Captain Level, Immortalized Crew, and Joining a Fleet.
  • Achievements are claimable only once, but many have different tiers that scale upward. For example, the Immortalize Crew Achievement has tiers at 1, 10, 25, 50, etc. Each tier grants additional rewards!
  • Achievement rewards are generally much greater than normal daily missions. In some cases the reward will be Honor, or even Dilithium.

Note: Players having already logged in today will only see the Achievements tomorrow.

Please note, once you log into the game for the day, the daily missions you see are what you get. So if you logged in earlier on the launch day under 2.0, you may not see new achievements until tomorrow.

Developer Note: It is our hope that adding achievements will help players set mid to long term goals for their progression in STT, and provide incentive and rewards to reaching those goals. We also wanted to reward our players who have been busy immortalizing their crew, giving them Dilithium for their efforts.

Quick Build

  • When an item has all the necessary sub components or equipment required to build that item, the build button will now say “Quick Build.”
  • Tapping “Quick Build” will bring up a confirmation popup with a message that displays the total cost of building ALL the sub components or equipment. Tapping the confirmation button will build all of the sub-items and the item itself.
  • NOTE: You may still choose to build the individual sub-items if you tap or click on them.

Developer Note: This has been a long requested quality-of-life feature that we finally had some time to work on. We would like to extend our thanks to our players for continuing to provide us with good, actionable feedback to improve Star Trek Timelines.

Gallery View

  • Tapping on the full body image of your selected crew now opens Gallery View.
  • Gallery View shows the currently selected crew’s full body image large and centered, along with their name and current rarity.
  • Tapping the arrows will change your currently selected crew to the next crew member in your Crew Quarters.
  • NOTE: The Gallery View shows whatever crew are in your currently sorted / filtered list. Ex: If you have filtered down to Science crew, then the gallery will only show the filtered Science crew.

Developer Note: One of the pieces of feedback we received on the Crew Quarters overhaul that we feel could be easily addressed was that the selected crew’s full body art felt somewhat deprioritized with this new layout. And while the new layout makes overall crew management much easier, we still want to allow for players to easily view their collection without taking away the additional functionality that was added in v2.0.

Bug Fixes: Addressed a bug where the Borg Sphere model was partially translucent.

Fleet Targets (available with forced 2.1.0 upgrade)

  • Introducing Fleet Targets, the first of our new Fleet-centric features!
  • Fleet Targets are daily communal missions for Fleets to strive for. Similar to your own Daily Missions, your Fleet Members complete these missions just by playing as they normally do.
  • Each target has 3 thresholds, each of which will come with a reward for every Fleet Member. By completing the goals, each Fleet Member will be able to claim rewards from the Fleet screen.
  • Fleet Targets have a participation tab which shows each member’s contribution for that day. Make sure to log in and play, so you earn rewards for everyone in your Fleet!
  • While we are launching with only a few Fleet Targets, we plan to add more in the future.
  • NOTE: You need to claim your Fleet Targets to get the rewards! Make sure to visit your Fleet regularly to claim any rewards you’ve unlocked during the day.
  • NOTE: Leaving a Fleet after having contributed to the Fleet’s Targets will trigger a 24 hour cooldown before being able to participate in Fleet Targets in another Fleet. There will be no cooldown to join another Fleet however, the cooldown will only affect Fleet Target participation.

Developer Note: When we introduced the Honor Hall in 2.0, we knew we would need to add additional avenues for players to acquire Honor. We also have committed to making Star Trek Timelines a more social and communal experience. This addition is another step toward achieving that goal.

Daily Missions Completion Reward (available with forced 2.1.0 upgrade)

  • A new Daily Mission has been added which requires that you complete all the normal daily missions.
  • Completing this mission will reward Honor, and provides a way to get Honor each day outside of dismissing crew.

Developer Note: Revamping the Daily Missions and Achievements systems allowed us to create a meta-mission that rewards players for completing all of their daily missions. We’ve wanted to do this for a while, and with the Honor system in v2.0, we felt that this was another great place to reward players with Honor.

Version 2.0

2017-April-27

Greetings, Captains!

v2.0 is now live for all players! It includes an exciting new feature, the Honor Hall, plus tons of improvements, many of which were made thanks to our players’ feedback. For those who have been playing in the v1.9 Android beta, our v2.0 client update includes much of what you saw in the beta, but due to the size and scale of these changes we have changed the version number to v2.0 to distinguish it from the v1.9 beta.

NOTE: it could take up to 24 hours for the update to propagate to all app stores.

Honor and Honor Hall

  • Dismissing crew now provides an all-new currency: Honor.
  • Honor may be spent in the Honor Hall, located within the Time Portal.
  • In the Honor Hall players will be able to purchase Honorable Citations but also Crew, Replicator Fuel, and Training Programs.
  • An Honorable Citation may be substituted for a fusible crew of the same rarity as the citation. For example, a 2/5 Admiral Janeway may be upgraded to a 3/5 with a 5 Star Honorable Citation. Honorable Citations may be used when upgrading a crew through the Fusion UI.
  • Players may still fuse crew using another copy of the same crew.

Crew Quarters

  • The Crew Quarters layout has been overhauled. The new layout features a grid based approach that allows players to see more crew at once. Crew details have been streamlined in the main crew list.
  • To allow players to manage their crew in a more efficient manner, we are introducing a new sorting dropdown menu! By default, the crew will be sorted by the number of actions they have available. Those actions are now displayed with a number instead of an exclamation point. Players will now have the ability to sort their crew by: Level, Rarity, Base Skill, Proficiency and alphabetically.
  • Manual Search. Players will be able to search through their crew based on a name or trait, this will override any other sorting or filtering options that have been set.
  • Players will no longer be able to dismiss crew who are currently tagged as “Favorite.” Attempting to do so will show a message indicating this. A crew must be removed from “Favorite” status before being dismissed.
  • Crew will now show a locked icon if they cannot be dismissed. Tapping the dismiss button will bring up a message explaining why said crew is being blocked from dismissal.
  • The Training panel has been made larger, and more clearly displays the training programs available to use.
  • Immortalized Crew are now visually distinct from non-immortalized crew.
  • Detailed crew stats (accessed via the circular info button) now shows better, more readable information. The crew’s ship ability and ship bonuses have also been moved to this area.
  • Chronitons amount is now also displayed in the Crew Quarters screen.
  • Additional Crew Slots can now be purchased at any time.
  • Crew in overflow can now be selected in order to better see their traits, and skills. The only action available for those crew remains dismissal.
  • The Get Item Menu will now show the mission’s current mastery. This will allow players to know if a mission is warpable without tapping the “Engage” button.

Crew Reenlistment

  • Recently dismissed crew are now available to be reenlisted for the same amount of Honor they were dismissed for. Crew eligible for reenlistment can be accessed by tapping/clicking on the curved arrow icon in the Crew Quarters.
  • Crew remain in reenlistment for four hours after they were dismissed. After four hours, crew are fully dismissed, and cannot be reenlisted.
  • Reenlisting a crew requires to have at least one free crew slot available.

Faction Mission Hub Quick Travel Bar

  • A Quick Travel Bar has been added to the Shuttle UI to allow players to view their reputation for all factions, and quickly travel to a Faction Center.
  • Tapping/clicking on a Faction icon in the Quick Travel Bar allows travel to that specific Faction Center.
  • Each Faction icon displays the overall reputation with each specific Faction. As faction standing improves, the progress bar will fill. At maximum reputation, the bar will turn into a star.
  • The Quick Travel bar now shows whether you are at a Faction Center.
  • Traveling to a Faction Center from the Shuttle UI should now immediately bring up the Faction Center after warp is complete.

Shuttle Bay UI and Performance Improvements

  • Shuttle display no longer flips to show faction information; instead, travel to the Faction Center is now done by tapping/clicking the Faction Center icon.
  • In Progress, and Completed shuttles now show the mission title, and story on the shuttle display.
  • Performance optimization of the Shuttle Bay UI.
  • Hitting the confirm button on the rewards panel after completing a Shuttle Mission will now take players back to the Shuttle Bay UI instead of the main game interface.

Shuttle Missions

  • Fixed a bug where “AND” slots in shuttle missions were not calculating skill correctly, and resulted in lower success % for those slots.

Fleet UI

  • The Fleet UI has been updated, and overhauled to lay the groundwork for more upcoming fleet features!
  • The leader of a fleet is now called the “Admiral”.
  • Fleet member ranks (Admiral, Officer, and Member) now have unique icons to differentiate them.
  • Fleets have a new icon associated with them.

Main game interface

  • The main game interface has been revamped to offer a more streamlined display
  • Fleet UI can now be accessed from the main game interface instead of via the Menu.
  • Icons for Fleets, Scan, Shuttles, Cadet Challenges, Battle Arena, and Gauntlet are now visually simplified, and part of the “Command Deck.”

Faction Center UI Improvements

  • The Faction Center UI has been updated to improve readability on small devices.
  • Faction Centers now show their faction representative on the left.


Version 1.8.0

2017-March-27

Greetings, Captains!

1.8.0 client is now live for players.

Below is a summary of some of the changes you’ll see in-game as a result. We hope you enjoy these improvements!

Crew Management Improvements

  • Player can now favorite (or “heart”) their favorite crew to be always displayed at the top of their crew list! Use this feature to keep the crew you care about most at the top of your Crew Quarters.
  • New icons added to the crew management screen to better direct players towards equipping or obtaining items.
  • When receiving a “Behold” Pick-3 in the Time Portal, each crew now displays their highest star level if you already have them, or “Unowned” if they are new to your roster.

  • The training menu now has larger numbers for better visibility.
  • Visual adjustments to the Shuttle Mission menu to prevent overlapping of text.
  • The Galaxy Map UI has been revamped! No more episode popups cluttering your view and preventing you from visiting the stars - enjoy a cleaner experience for your game.

Known Issues

  • Players who have upgraded to 1.8.0 will see in their crew management screen 5 crew that they previously received with the 10-pack obtained after finishing the NPE.
  • When you have a 3/3 star crew eligible to fuse into Tuvix the upgrade button will read “At Maximum” but will still flash yellow to allow interaction and to proceed with the fuse.

Version 1.7.0 (iOS) and 1.7.1 (Android)

2017-January-31

Greetings Captains!

Today we are pushing a client update for the game, version 1.7.1. Please note that iOS will say 1.7.0, Android will say 1.7.1, but they are functionally the same. Following up on last week’s server push, below is a list of additional changes you will see in the game including The Gauntlet, which will be rolled out to players gradually:

  • The Gauntlet: Players will be able to pick a team of five of their crew and compete against up to 200 other players’ teams for prizes. This is the first time that you’ll be able to compete against other players’ crew! Stay tuned for our more in-depth blog post and FAQ about The Gauntlet. This feature will be rolled out to players gradually, so not all players will see the feature at first.
  • Fixed a bug in the tutorial that allowed players to close the first conflict, which would leave them stuck without UI and unable to continue playing.
  • Crew management UI improvement: crew in overflow will now display “Duplicate” if that crew is already fully fused, and “Fusible” if not already fully fused.
  • Added rewards and back button functionality to display rewards in the splash screen of an event.
  • Various layout and UI improvements including changes to the Cryostasis Vault, PvP Battle Station style improvements, and changes to accommodate for more crew on screen at once.
  • Other improvements to general typography, scrollbar usability, and reformatted rules.
  • Addressed an issue where players were encountering a server error after crafting an item in a Galaxy Event when backgrounding the app.

Additionally, some of you may have experienced difficulties on Saturday morning as you tried to participate in the most recent Galaxy Event. Every player who attempted to play during this outage would have encountered this error. This was due to a bug that our team is currently working on remedying for future events. In the meantime, please accept this gift of 250 Chronitons to help level and improve your new crew from the event, because some of you were unable to participate for a short amount of time this past weekend. Enjoy!

Version 1.6.0

2016-December-20

Supply Kits

The “Boosts” tab has been renamed to “Boosts & Kits” Supply Kits may be purchased for 70 Dilithium in the Boosts and Kits section of the Time Portal. Supply Kits remain active for 24 hours from the time of purchase. Supply Kits provide the following bonuses when active: 25% reduction in Chroniton cost, double credit rewards, and 50% bonus crew XP. Players may purchase more than one supply kit. Each additional supply kit increases your Supply Kit time by 24 hours.

Bug Fixes

== Players may once again view event rewards before the event begins. == Players may once again see a player’s fleet and battle station crew when viewing their profile. == Holocommunicator is now named Holocomm for text length reasons. == Added an icon for the VIP Level notification. == Added an event unlock icon with the correct padlock image. == Updated the Admiral Division rewards to correct say Admiral in their mails. Previously they said Captain, though they still delivered the Admiral rewards. == Fixed a typo in WWII O’Brien’s flight helmet. == Kes’s items are now correctly called “Kes’s” instead of “Kess’s” == Added four more voice lines for Q when you return to the game.

Ship Battles and PvP

Build and change ship UI improvements == Ships data has been updated to show a ship’s base data, making it easier to choose which ship to use. Previously, this data was only shown when looking at the info button of a ship. == Ships are now much more recognizable from their art. == The Info button has been reworked to better show ship information.

Improved Ship Battle UI == All information on your ship and your opponent’s ship has been centralized on the bottom portion of your screen. == Opponent’s actions are now more easily displayed above the opponent’s ship health bars. == Opponent notifications are now more visible on the right side of the screen.

Improved Crew Filtering for Battle Stations ==Selecting a Battle Station on your ship will cause the Crew that match the Station’s Skill Bonus to filter to the top of the list.

Version 1.5.3

2016-November-7

-On the menu that shows missions to obtain items and the Replicator, certain missions that have actually been completed appear to be locked and cannot be selected or warped. This bug has been fixed in 1.5.3; you should see the missions to get items in order of least-to-most Chroniton cost, and they should be locked if you have completed the mission.

-The Shuttle UI bug that prevented sending more than one shuttle at a time, or completing one shuttle at a time, has been fixed.

Version 1.5.2

2016-November-2

Premium Features:

  • Some players may see new versions of the Monthly Card in their shop! With 1.5.2 comes the ability to test out new, exciting versions of the Monthly Card, giving our players value in new ways. We’ll let you know what’s coming soon!

Ads:

  • Ads have been overhauled!
  • Ad buttons now have their own distinct color, letting you see ad options at a glance. The ability to view ads may now be present for some players in three places: Scanning, Warping, and getting a Chroniton boost!
  • Ads continue to be a work in progress. With 1.5.2, we will be greatly increasing our test group, so more players than ever can utilize ads in the game.

Events:

  • Galaxy Events have been improved, with bug fixes, UI fixes, and more! The UI has been updated and streamlined, including a visual display of event crew bonuses, better showing the failure bonus for the bonus item, and item menu improvements.

Bug fixes:

  • The great Casing/Polyalloy image debate has been put to “rust” by rusting the polyalloys.
  • Extensive changes have been implemented to reduce memory usage and prevent frequent crashes on devices with less available memory. Players with those devices should have a much smoother experience playing the game for longer periods of time. Specific devices that should see an improvement are the iPad 2 and iPad Mini (or equivalent) devices that had 512mb - 1gb of available memory.
  • Squadron leaders can now remove players from their squadron! this is not yet live, more information to follow.
  • Rare rewards now no longer appear on the menu to obtain equipment if they’ve already been claimed
  • The equipment menu now sorts closer to Chroniton efficiency.
  • Fixed some equipment that were at an incorrect rarity from intended.
  • Updated mission text to refer to The Professor instead of Moriarty.
  • Updated Augment/Cardassian/Ferengi Alliance shops to sometimes contain 4-star and 5-star crew.
  • UI polish and improvements.

Version 1.5.0

2016-October-11

New Equipment Menu Interface

  • Long-awaited changes to the Equipment Menu are here! In addition to showing the option to Replicate an item or equipment, the menu will now sort automatically in order of most-likely to least-likely for drops (based on average expected Chroniton cost to get the needed item). The menu also displays better information about the mission type, quality of the reward, challenge level needed to obtain the reward, and the Chroniton cost. This quality-of-life improvement should help players become more efficient in finding items needed to advance their crew!

50th Anniversary ship skin has expired

  • As fun as it was, the 50th Anniversary ship skin for the NCC-1701 Enterprise has returned to the “normal” ship skin. Perhaps it will return in the future!

Privacy Policy is in Support Tab

  • The Disruptor Beam Privacy Policy is now easily accessible from the in-game Support tab.

Faction Events

  • Squadrons will now be able to share crew during Faction Events! The Squadron leader may now choose one of their crew members to share amongst all members of that Squadron, to improve their Squadron’s performance in an event. Squad members can use this shared crew in the event, in addition to their own crew.

Other Text, Bug, and UI Fixes.

  • Events and other parts of the game have had their interface refreshed and improved! Several buttons have been fixed to wrap text correctly, in addition to other text and bug fixes.

New crew have been added to the game with today’s server release for 1.5.0. The new crew include the following limited edition crew that will appear in the Dabo Wheel and future special packs:

Complete crew will be immortalized in the Vault; if a player chooses to dismiss an active crew member that is present in the Vault, he will be able to call that crew back to active service at any time. One-Time Daily Missions: This feature creates a system in which one-time Daily Missions can appear alongside the standard Daily Missions. Tap-and-Hold Training for Crew: This allows multiple training programs to be assigned to a crew with one click, rather than clicking once for each training program used for the crew.

Bug Fixes: -Fix for multiple device and Galaxy Map notifications when shuttle missions are complete. -Minor text changes in several areas to fix incorrect wording or spelling. -Minor changes to the game screen to fix overlap with Special Offers and Event icons on the right side. -Minor other UI changes for readability and correct spacing.
