Looking to fill up the list of people to follow on Bluesky? The Ingress team has created a so called "Starter Pack" with various profiles of Agents and community profiles that regularly post about Ingress, be it their own experiences, Sitreps or otherwise! You can follow all current and future profiles of this list with a simple tap on "Follow all".

You can subscribe to this starter pack here: https://go.bsky.app/Srrd6Wu

If you want to be added to this pack as well you can leave a comment under this post: https://bsky.app/profile/ingress.com/post/3lwjz6t7g7s2f

Niantic Spatial has released Version 2.173.1 into the App Stores!

Quite a bit was added this time! Agents that are badge locked and can't level past L8 due to missing badges now have an indicator in the form of a "badge lock icon" alerting them to it. The Handbook was renamed to the "Training Manual" and a Community button was added that links to the Bluesky profile of the Ingress team. Finally, a scrollbar was added to the Store and a red dot now appears if there are daily free items to claim.

On the side of Bug fixes, an issue was fixed that resulted in long waiting times when trying to sort Keys by distance or name as well as a soft lock in the Dispatch screen that hid the (x) button to exit the screen.

Agents on iOS should see this update in their App Store already while Android Agents will need to wait a bit while the update is rolled out in waves.

@IUENG_Extra

It seems like the soft lock in the Dispatch screen that appears when you tap on a Bounty has not been fixed, even though it has been mentioned in the Release Notes. If you are on Android you can exit the screen by tapping the Back button, otherwise you can switch to the Daily Bounties and open and close one of them as that also brings back the (x) button.

@IUENG_Extra

The +Delta Campaign: Fields is now visible in the Dispatch screen and confirms what some people have feared: Aside from creating Fields, you will also need to destroy Fields to complete the Campaign Bounties which can be hard to do if the opposite Faction doesn't feel like fielding in your area.

Unless Machina suddenly starts to field, prepare accordingly!

@IUENG_Extra

This is how Ingress now notifies you if you are badge locked! Once you open your profile with enough AP, but not enough tiered medals the message above will appear to inform you of the new requirements. In addition, a new badge lock icon is now shown besides the Agent Level shown on the map screen.

Another change that wasn't listed in the recent Release Notes were new Deep Links! With the original Firebase Deep Links shutting down this week the team has moved to a new format which also looks more clean. All old Deep Links should continue to work for now as well, but if you have a Deep Link anywhere important you should try to update it.

The first restart of the Fielding campaign has begun for some Agents, and as expected the values for the tasks have risen by 25% of the base value. Check out the post on IUENG below which lists all values over the restarts:

If you had issues seeing the 40mil+ campaign even though you had more than 40mil+ Livetime AP, try again now! It seems like Niantic has fixed the issue that prevented some Agents from seeing the Campaign in the Dispatch screen.
