| Pelusium | Logistics tooling for EVE Frontier: on-chain freight jobs and SUI escrow, plus discovery features like shops and the Cargo Well. |
| Freight job | A contract on Sui that locks payment and tracks pickup → delivery between two SSUs. |
| SUI | The token used for escrow and fees on the Sui network (your wallet holds it). |
| SSU | Smart Storage Unit in EVE Frontier — on-chain storage at a structure. Jobs name a pickup and drop-off SSU. See Completely new for a plain-language tour. |
| EVE Vault | Official EVE Frontier wallet and identity (Chrome extension or web). Connect it to Pelusium; use a separate exchange account if you cash out SUI. |
| LUX | In-game currency in EVE Frontier for many purchases and trades (held in EVE Vault). Pelusium freight escrow uses SUI, not LUX. |
| Ephemeral inventory | A per-character storage slot on an SSU (not the owner’s primary locker). Cargo can land here after delivery — see SSU consolidate. |
| Pelusium extension | Permission on an SSU so Pelusium can record pickup and delivery on-chain for jobs using that unit. |
| Shipper | Who creates the job and locks escrow (often the buyer or their representative). |
| Courier | Who accepts the job and completes pickup and delivery on-chain. |
| Route planner | Routing page in Pelusium for building a proposed path and copying the ordered route before committing to a haul. Optional EF-Map visualization. |
| Cargo mass | Weight used by the route planner when estimating ship jump performance. |
| Jump radius | Maximum distance for a jump in the route planner. It can come from the selected ship profile or from a manual override. |
| Shop | Storefront directory: player businesses listing cargo for sale from an SSU. |
| Cargo Well | Market board for one commodity type at a time—listed sells and standing buys to help you price and plan a haul. |
| Listing | A sell line: quantity, optional total price in SUI, notes, tied to a store. |
| Buy order / standing bid | A buy line: how much you want and what you’re willing to pay (per unit or “contact me”). |
| Settlement | When the job completes and escrow pays out per the on-chain rules (courier, seller if any, protocol). |
| Discovery | Seeing prices and counterparties in the app; settlement is the freight job on-chain. |
| Speculation pool | Experimental side bets on whether a freight job finishes on time. Pari-mutuel For / Against stakes in SUI; resolves from job state, not killmails today. See Speculation. |
| Cargo insurance | Experimental cover on a freight job: pay a premium, claim up to cargo value if the haul fails under policy rules. Funded by an LP pool. See Insurance. |
| Insurance LP | Player who deposits SUI into the insurance pool to underwrite policies and (hopefully) earn premiums net of claims. |
| Premium | SUI paid to buy an insurance policy; earned by LPs if the policy expires after a successful delivery. |
