What changed
When new universes opened in July, 2021 there was a change to the fleet speed settings. No longer was it one fleet speed for the universe and every fleet used this one speed. Instead, there were now three fleet speeds and certain mission types belonged to one of the speeds.
The new fleet speed categories:
- Holding fleet speed
- Peaceful fleet speed
- War fleet speed
Mission types governed by the fleet speeds
-
Holding fleet speed
- ACS hold missions
-
Peaceful fleet speed
- Transport missions
- Deployment missions
- Colonization missions
-
Expedition missions
- Only affects the flight time - the peaceful fleet speed does not affect the hold time
-
War fleet speed
- Attack missions
- ACS attack missions
- Espionage missions
- Harvesting missions
- Moon destruction missions
-
Missile flight speeds
- Only affects IPMs - ABMs do not have a speed component.

Also affects the jump gate cool down
- faster war fleet speed means a faster jump gate cool down
