Hello everyone, have a nice day and good racing. As you may know, two weeks ago there were some updates in Moonkarts, a racing game on the Arcade Colony platform. One of the most important changes was that the minimum orbitals required for orbital rewards was reduced to 2 from 3. And to get the max orbital rewards, all 6 orbitals must be collected.
Let's see how many colony rewards I get when I collect orbitals and when I fail to do so in Moonkarts racing.
In the examples below, there are 2 racings where I only collected colony, and 0 orbitals. In the first image, I got 4.25 colony rewards and in the second 6.71 colony rewards. In the second one, I got a lot more colony, simple because there were fewer players at the time when I played that racing.

In this one I got 1 orbital on the track, but it wasn't enough to get orbital rewards since the minimum is 2. At least I got 5.37 colony rewards.
In this racing, after finally collecting 2 orbitals on the track, I got orbital rewards, which will give me some colony at the end of the season. I got a total of 390 orbitals.
In this one, I collected 3 orbitals on the track and got 1080 orbital rewards, not bad at all. Clearly, that's a big difference compared to just collecting 2 orbitals.
Here, my opponent unfortunately disconnected, so I managed to collect 6 orbitals, giving me 1560 orbitals, and 8.58 colony.
I'm currently in the pos 12 of the Orbital leaderboard, this season so far I have managed to collect 10260 orbitals, so the estimated rewards I would get at the end of this season is 362 Colony. It's a small amount, but at least it's something.
By the way, there was an issue claiming Ranked leaderboard winnings this season, only the orbital leaderboard rewards were successfully claimed. But don't worry, it's all sorted out now, so I collected my ranked rewards for the season 30, where I managed to get 13th position, so I got 6092 colony rewards, which I'll, of course, stake.
Now, it is easier to get orbital rewards, as it only requires to collect 2, but of course, if you have the slowest kart in the race, it depends on the opponent if you get some orbitals, since there are a total of 6 orbitals per race and no more. I really appreciate that some players who have a better kart than mine let me collect 3 orbitals, when they have every right to collect all 6 orbitals since they have invested much more into the game. This is really nice and helpful, especially for other players who are just starting out in the game, so they don't get discouraged. I do the same thing when my kart is the best on the track, and it feels good to help other players. I hope everyone can do the same, so that new players in the game also get orbital rewards. That's all for now guys, take care.
