Your career page, and finding your way around

· profile · career · achievements · navigation

A pile of related fixes landed together, all pointed at the same thing: making the site feel like one place you can move around, and making your own page worth landing on.

Collection first

Your public page put your saved moments up top, which meant your actual collection — the ships and aircraft you've caught — got pushed below the fold. That's backwards: the collection is the thing. Now the profile leads with a Collection tab (your caught cards, rendered as the same holographic cards you see in the catalogue), and Moments moved into their own tab next to it. Nothing's gone; the order just matches what people come to see.

Achievements that explain themselves

The badges on your profile were a flat wall with the "how did I get this" hidden in a tooltip. Two changes:

There's a "See all achievements" link straight to the catalogue, which lists every achievement — earned or not — with its description.

Ranks you can read

Your rank now carries a progress bar: "7,966 / 10,000 XP → Pathfinder", so you can see how you got here and how far the next rung is. Click the rank and you land on an explanation of the whole ladder — every rank, its XP threshold, and how XP is earned across spotting, racing, drops and more.

One shell, one trail

The last piece is navigation. Every page under the site — your profile, a vessel page, the leaderboard, the city landings, the races — now wears the same top bar, and the two standalone sub-products, the flying-spots hub and Radio, are set apart as larger chips that open in their own tab. Under the bar, a breadcrumb trail shows where you are and always gives you a way back up. A vessel page used to have no way home at all; now it doesn't.

Small changes on their own. Together they make the difference between a set of pages and a place.
