To migrate your account to a new server in Foundation: Galactic Frontier, you must clear all active fleet operations, leave your guild, spend resources sitting above your warehouse protection cap, and spend the required migration permits. Meeting every system prerequisite before the transfer window opens prevents failed checks and keeps you from missing server population caps.
Account Requirements and Eligibility Checks
The migration interface runs a strict account validation check before approving a transfer. Any ongoing station action or outward deployment causes the transfer to fail immediately.
Ensure your station satisfies the following criteria:
- Guild Membership: You must leave your current guild. If you are a guild leader, you must transfer leadership to another player or disband the guild before applying.
- Stationed Fleets: Dock all warships, resource gathering units, and scouting probes inside your station. Any fleet actively pathing, harvesting, or reinforcing an ally blocks migration.
- Combat Status: Clear all active attack timers, incoming hostile scouting locks, and retaliation cooldowns. Offensive and defensive war statuses must fully expire.
- Medical and Repair Docks: Complete or empty all queues in your hospital bays and repair docks. Active repair timers interrupt the state validation check.
- Warehouse Protection Limit: Migration protocols enforce resource carry limits. Titanium, Energy, and Deuterium exceeding your station's protected vault capacity are forfeited upon arrival. Spend excess stocks on construction, tech, or gear before jumping.
Migration Permits and Server Brackets
Server migration does not offer unrestricted movement across every galaxy. The event organizes servers into chronological brackets based on age and season to prevent heavily developed accounts from entering newer environments.
Each destination server enforces immigration caps divided into power tiers. Transferring consumes immigration permits, and the exact cost scales with your account's Combat Power relative to the target server's player base. Higher-power commanders must accumulate more permits than lower-power guildmates.
| Server Evaluation Factor | Gameplay Impact | Practical Check |
|---|---|---|
| Server Bracket | Restricts available destinations | Verify the target universe shares your server age cohort or season. |
| Immigration Quota | Limits incoming transfers | Track how rapidly top-tier and general slots fill during day one. |
| Environment Type | Determines resource safety | Confirm whether the server enforces non-aggression pacts or active PvP. |
| Faction Balance | Shapes future guild content | Check whether multiple alliances compete or a single guild dominates. |
To verify conditions before spending permits, create a secondary character on the target server. Use this scout account to inspect world chat, review ranking leaderboards, and confirm alliance diplomacy.
Guild Relocation Order
Coordinating an entire alliance transfer requires staggered departures. If players move without a set schedule, high-power accounts can fill migration quotas before lower-tier members finish transferring.
- Verify Target Server Capacity: Alliance leadership confirms the destination has open slots across all needed power brackets.
- Transfer High-Power Anchors First: Top-combat-power commanders migrate as soon as the event window opens to claim high-tier quota spots before they cap.
- Establish Guild Presence: The advance team creates the guild tag on the target server and places the initial territory marker.
- Move Mid-Tier and Support Ranks: Remaining guild members execute their transfers and accept guild invites immediately upon arrival.
Pre-Jump Checklist and Next Actions
Complete these final steps before confirming your relocation:
- Check Migration Costs: Open the in-game migration event window to view your specific permit requirement based on your current Combat Power.
- Deplete Unprotected Resources: Invest surplus Titanium, Energy, and Deuterium into station research, warship production, or equipment upgrades so nothing is lost to warehouse caps.
- Collect System Mail: Claim all pending event rewards, achievement payouts, and arena rankings. Unclaimed mail can disappear during the server transition.
- Initiate Transfer: Confirm the migration prompt once your checklists clear.
When your station arrives on the destination server, the game relocates your base to random coordinates on the outer rim. Immediately activate a peace shield, locate your alliance's beacon on the galactic map, and use an advanced teleport to move inside your guild's defensive territory.
