Game Days

The game utilizes a concept known as Game Days, which are units of time. During each Game Day, the following actions occur:
*Consuming food
*Rolling up a random encounter in the sector the player is currently in
Additionally, applying ship upgrades with scrap will also cause a Game Day to pass. This aspect of the game is often misunderstood and has been a source of frustration for many players, as it is not explicitly stated that this will occur.
Each jump also consumes a Game Day. This can be a significant factor to consider when planning out a course of travel, as the player will need to ensure they have sufficient food and are prepared for any potential random encounters.
