Racket
(Redirected from Rackets)
A Racket is a criminal enterprise that will spawn on random Territories across the map, each supplying a daily resource to the faction in control of said territory. Rackets spawn at Level 1 and will occasionally level up or down between Level 1 and Level 5 (maximum). If a Racket levels down at Level 1 it will despawn from the map.
Racket Types
Different types of Rackets will supply different types of resources. Every successive level of racket will double the supplied resource.

Patch History
Released in Patch list #109
- Changed territory rackets to avoid producing goods if the faction does not have the relevant armory
- Racket asset values are now limited depending on what sector they're in.
- There's now a more or less equal chance for a racket to spawn in any sector. So every sector should end up with a fairly even amount of rackets.
- When a racket change is triggered, there was previously a 60% chance of a downgrade and a 40% chance of an upgrade. This is now 50/50, meaning rackets are just as likely to upgrade as they are to downgrade, resulting in more higher levelled rackets.
- Racket spawn frequency has been increased. This will ensure the total daily output remains at around $6b, but across 160-180 rackets instead of the current 120.
- Low value rackets can now spawn in sector 7.
- Release changes to rackets which will ensure higher quality / density towards the center.
- Changed visibility of rackets on the city map to only show if the territory is also shown / loaded.
- Rackets are criminal enterprises which occasionally spawn on random territories. *The faction which has ownership of the territory will earn a daily resource depending on the racket's type and level.
- Rackets always spawn on level 1 and will level up or down over time.
- If a level 1 racket levels down, it will disappear entirely.
- Every additional racket level added constitutes a doubling of the resource it provides.
- It's expected there will be over 100 rackets generated in total. It will take a number of weeks before they start levelling up.
- Released Territory Rackets
- First instance of development notes for "Territory hotspots"
