Drone amplification: accumulation of metadata

In the game, drones accumulate metadata — an analogue of experience used for their upgrades. Metadata is gathered in battle and determines a drone’s level.

The amount of accumulated metadata affects abilities and power: the more metadata, the higher the drone’s level and effectiveness. For more details, see the “Battle Table” and “Metadata Tables” sections of the library.

Datapack — a special container holding a set amount of metadata collected in previous battles. Using a datapack instantly increases a drone’s metadata volume.

The rate of accumulation depends on software usage, energy expenditure, and battle type. Players can strategically choose engagements to accelerate metadata flow and level up drones faster.
