Hunters are hostile ships sent by the SDF, the armed wing of the 
Mush-infected Federation. They attack the Daedalus's 
armor, making them one of the crew's biggest hazards. If falls to zero, the Daedalus explodes and kills everyone aboard!
List of Hunters
Standard Hunter
Standard Hunters can spawn at any point in the game. They deal between 2-4 damage per cycle.
- They have 6 each.
- 50% follow the ship when it moves.
- Reduced by 25% with
Trail Minimizer.
- Reduced by 25% with
Trax
Traxs can spawn starting from Day 5. They deal between 2-3 damage per cycle.
- They have 10 each.
- Traxs always follow the ship when it moves.
Arack
Traxs can spawn starting from Day 5. They deal between 1-3 damage per cycle.
- They have 6 each.
Warning: Aracks stop the ship from moving (though it can still go to Sol/Eden).
d1000
d1000s can spawn starting from Day 10. They deal 3-6 damage per cycle.
- They have 30 each.
- They do not follow the ship when it moves.
Asteroid
Asteroids can spawn starting from Day 5.
- They have 20 .
- They will hit the Daedalus 6 cycles after spawning, and will deal as much damage as their remaining armor.
- They ignore the
Plasma Shield. - They do not follow the ship when it moves.
Strategy
There are two ways to deal with hunters:
- Shoot them down with turrets and Patrollers.
Main article: Piloting. - Move the ship to escape them.
Moving the ship will escape 50% of the current number of standard Hunters (more with Trail Minimizer, as well as all asteroids and d1000s. Pilots will still need to deal with Traxs (which always follow the ship) and Aracks (who keep the ship from moving at all).
Hunters will not damage you on the cycle that the Daedalus moves. This means that a ship with an active 
Commander could theoretically avoid damage indefinitely, so long as it has enough 
Fuel to keep moving. In practice, though, the crew will need to take breaks to collect scrap, scan for planets, and go on expeditions.
The 
Strateguru skill can help make Hunter waves much less overwhelming.
