Feed and public page

The feed is the social network inside Estelar Online: pilots post photos from their album, like, comment, repost and follow each other. Everything public also appears on each pilot’s public page, a web address (estelaronline.com/@name) that anyone can open, even without playing.

The feed is on the SOCIAL screen ([B] by default; change it in SETTINGS › KEYS) and only works online.

Tab What it shows
FOLLOWING posts from people you follow, from your friends and your own
DISCOVER all of the week’s posts, most liked first
PROFILE a pilot’s profile, with FOLLOW and the link to their public page
FRIENDS your friends list and your group
CORPORATION your corporation and its album

You post a photo from your album that has already been uploaded to the cloud: on the PHOTOGRAPHY screen, open ACTIONS on the photo and choose POST TO FEED, with a caption of up to 200 characters. Corporation members can post and tag the corporation, and the photo goes into its album.

You can also post a public playlist from the radio: it shows up in the feed with its cover, and anyone who sees it can play it on their ship.

The limit is 20 posts per day. Deleting a post also removes its reposts.

  • Like: one tap, and you can unlike later.
  • Comment: up to 300 characters, with a short interval between one comment and the next. Everyone can delete their own comments, and the post’s owner can delete any comment on it.
  • Repost: brings the photo to your profile, credited to whoever took it. Reposting a repost reposts the original, and each photo can only be reposted once.

Liking, commenting and posting count toward the day’s community missions.

Following is one-way: you see posts from the people you follow without them having to follow you. Friends are added to FOLLOWING automatically. Each pilot can follow up to 1000 pilots.

The menu on every post and every comment has REPORT: pick the reason and, if you want, block the pilot right away. BLOCK makes each one’s posts disappear for the other, and neither can comment on the other’s posts. The block list is the same one used for voice. If the team confirms the report, the post or comment is removed from the feed and the author is notified. See Rules and support.

Every pilot has a page at estelaronline.com/@name, open to anyone. The COPY LINK button, on the profile, copies the address. It shows the name, the corporation (flag, motto and rank), followers and who the pilot follows, and has these tabs:

Tab Content
PHOTOS posts and reposts (up to 60), without comments or the list of who liked them
PLANETS how many planets they scanned and systems they visited, with a card for each planet
COLONIES the pilot’s colonies
PLAYLISTS public playlists, which play straight from Audius on the page
LIKED songs liked on the radio (the 60 most recent)
SHIPS the fleet: ships in use and stored, and the history of destroyed ones (by whom and where) and auctioned ones

The SHIPS tab tells the story of the fleet: every ship lost in PvP is recorded with who took it down and where, and the ones that went to auction show up too.

The Galactic Citizen only gets cosmetics and organization in the feed and on the page:

  • the ★ star next to the name and a border on posts;
  • a photo pinned to the top of the profile;
  • up to 12 named collections (up to 60 photos each), organized from the ⋯ on each post;
  • styles for the planet cards on the public page (Holographic, Gold, Nebula, Starry night).
