Do contacts ever move/change planets in 0.95a?
« on: October 23, 2021, 11:12:15 AM »

Basically what it says in the title (in game currently, I make no assumptions regarding what the update will or won't change beyond whatever in dev diary).  Also, has anyone cracked the game code open yet and determined whether there is any chance of a contact's level going up after you do some number of missions for said contact, or do you always have to drop a lower level contact for a better one?  I ask because I have a mod idea regarding the use of contacts, curious how static contacts are considered.  Also curious whether contacts are listed by planet in code after being generated (ie, a list per planet, not a big array that includes contacts with the contact's planet), but I will probably figure that out eventually on my own once I bother to crack the code open further...

IIRC contacts only move if the planet they are currently on dies.

And lose a level of importance after a contact moves.
