Collection - Faction Stores - FastTrek Docs

Star Trek® Fleet Command features multiple factions, each with a huge faction store.

These STFC Faction Stores keep on growing. A new grind means yet another thing to exchange, and regular players will be spending at least 30+ minutes or so just to go through the faction stores to pick up the items they need to exchange every day.

It’s one of the most time-wasting mechanics in the game, but can’t be avoided.

Well, now it can.

Faction stores, FastTrek style

Collecting your STFC Faction Store items automatically using FastTrek saves valuable time every day.

FastTrek uses the in-game bulk collection feature of each faction store, just like it does for the refinery.

In-game collection settings

Most STFC players collect exactly the same stuff from the store every single day, so you only need to set this up once.

Visit each store in the game, click the “Add to bulk list” button at the very bottom, and pick your items and quantities.

FastTrek collection settings

Open Settings > Collection > Faction and tick the stores you want FastTrek to bulk collect for you:

Federation, Klingon, Romulan, Augment, Rogue, Bajoran, Ex-Borg, Section 31, Terran, DTI and Maverick.

Smart Scheduling

You can activate Faction Store Smart Scheduling in Settings > Schedules. I strongly recommend setting up your faction store selections before enabling this option.

FastTrek reads each store’s bulk cooldown from the game (if shown on the button) and schedules its next visit. If it ever reads a cooldown wrong, click Reset next to that store to force a visit on the next run.

Within about 5 minutes of launching or enabling this option, FastTrek will work through the faction stores once to catch up on anything that may have become collectible while it was off.

All collection times are slightly randomised and consolidated when cooldowns fall within about 30 minutes of each other.
