The numbers are 15 8 17 25 18 15 8 1 17 25 18 15 8 1 17 25 18 15 8 1 17 25 18 15 8 1 17 25 18 (21 22 26 5 13 23 2 1 18 6!) if anyone has any conspiracys for this please let me know as it may be a puzzle piece to see which direction the games going, also the map position definitely doesn't sit right

Assuming the bracketed ones are a key to translate or even just cull this the number solution is: 1 17 1 18 1 25 8 15 15 15. I will attempt to decipher further

After putting the solution through a number to letter combo and translating the answer which untranslated is :aqarayhooo, the best match is Somali which translates to: Read it. I am fuming

Sub each number for the appropriate letter (1=A, 2=B, etc), the run the result through a rot-13 cypher. The end product is bundlebundlebundlebundlebundlebundle(himrzjones)

It's teasing that a new ship bundle is coming. The bit in brackets is the games Community Manager acknowledging the first person they saw to figure out the code.

The map being wrong is just because it's a fun tease and not to be taken too seriously, they're just photoshopped the STO UI to recreate the one from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: Dominion Wars, as it's theorised the new ships in the bundle are from previous Star Trek games (Armada, Invasion, Dominion Wars)
