Land Discovery

Searching for land on your Planet NFTs is easy! As you earn your QUID, you can spend it on Land Surveys — 200Q per piece of land. For example, to discover all the land available on your newly discovered Terran-sized planet, you'll need 1200Q in your wallet. However, you can search one piece at a time and stretch out the excitement of discovering everything your Planet NFT can offer! Here's how:
Go to your inventory and select the planet you want to explore.
Click on the planet map and choose an undiscovered (for now!) region.
Open up that wallet and send over 200 QUID plus some ADA to cover the transaction size and fees associated with Cardano transactions.
Watch the discovery process unfold, landing you with a brand new Land NFT!
Check out your wallet for that ooooh and aaaaahh moment (plus, you get 2 ADA back from your initial fees!)
Each piece of land will have a unique name, a Habitability Grade, a Mineral Grade, and will display any Creatures known to live on that land (once Creatures are discovered). The Habitability Grade determines the percent chance to discover creatures on that Land NFT. The Mineral Grade influences the percent chance to discover rare minerals on the Land NFT (once the mining feature is released).
Land will maintain a tie to the planet it was discovered on, however they also function independently — most in-game activities will happen at the Land level.
Different types of Land harbour different kinds of Creatures and Minerals. That's why you want to kick off various explorations — More planet types and sizes mean more Creatures and Minerals and more QUID for your wallet.
Your newly acquired Land NFTs start accruing claimable QUID rewards as soon as it’s minted through the Galactic Federation’s Land Accelerator Program. Claims are available at any time and rewards are calculated every minute! All unclaimed rewards get carried over.

Planet owners who simply just hold planets still get a piece of the QUID action! A planet owner who doesn’t currently own a Land NFT from their planet, will get a percentage of all QUID earned from that Land. For example: A user could buy a planet that came with 6 zones, discover all 6 Land NFTs, and then sell them all in secondary markets. The new owners of those Land NFTs would be accruing QUID but the current Planet owner still collects a percentage of QUID from all associated Land.
As with many things in the Cryptoverse, getting in early has its rewards! Getting as much land unlocked as soon as possible is the main goal — the sooner you mint your Land NFTs, the sooner you start earning!
