During a sortie, active parts calibrate through use against real crowd pressure. After a crest, the rig offers a small choice between temporary overclocks for parts already installed: an extra fork, a returning projectile, faster storage, a larger manual release. The choice changes a visible connection automatically. This creates a survivorslike rise from “barely holds a lane” to “owns the room” without requiring a new permanent part every few minutes. Only overcoming meaningful pressure advances it; delaying one harmless enemy does not.

Overclocks are a new proposal. Resetting them aboard gives each expedition a fresh rise, but walking home can feel like giving up peak power. Delivering a survivor, preserving the current arrangement and planning the next loadout must make return worthwhile. If they do not, overclocks should persist until death or be replaced.

The owner selected resetting temporary combat upgrades on every return home. The particular overclocks and how they are earned remain proposals. Each expedition gets a fresh rise in power; delivering a survivor, following a new clue and preparing another combination give that rise a purpose beyond its last spectacular clear.
