Subset Games Forum

Just wondering how the score is calculated. I've had two (what i thought were) very similar games with the Federation ship andthe Mantis Cruiser Type B, yet the difference between the score when i defeated the boss was around 1500pts. Just wondering what i missed (both ships used cloaking, boarding crew, drones; had scrap recovery arm and nearly maxed out ship systems; and the ship with the highest score actually took much more hull damage over the course of the game).

If anyone knows, please inform me. My friend has beaten my high score and this needs to be rectified!

I remember seeing something that said everything that was included, forget where though, possibly it was one of the loading screens. From what I recall, the score was influenced by scrap collected, damage dealt, beacons explored... Something like that. I couldn't tell you the actual math used though.

At one point the devs had said they would probably also be including additional points for defeating the boss, but I'm not sure if that's been done or not.

There are some bonus points added with the main one, with a followed algorithm, that should be a secret one...
