New Features / Configuration Changes and Bug Fixes
In Space
Possible autopilot fix for "hung at stargate" bug.
You can no longer jettison capsules directly into space. This fixes the 'destroy capsule = claim bounties on character who jettisoned it' exploit.
Autopilot route information now clears properly when final destination reached.
Autopilot now stops at each waypoint if set to do so.
There is now a context menu for mines and when you target them, you get damage level brackets for them instead of the picture target bracket.
Splash damage (from things like missiles) to fellow gang members is now ignored by the aggression/penalty system.
You can now see ownership information in the "Show Info" windows of cargo containers and sentry guns.
Players with negative security ratings can now enter empire space, the sec rating decides at what system security level the local forces attack.
Modules / Ammo
Fixed the module fitting bug where if you were quick, you could fit more than one module into the same slot.
Fixed the ammo reloading bug where sometimes when reloading specific amounts of ammo into a weapon would give errors about not enough space remaining when there was enough space.
Billboards should now show news and bounty information.
Agents
Bookmarks from old missions are now cleared up after a mission is terminated to avoid confusion.
A bug in regards to pirates that relate to a mission stayed in space indefinetly after a mission had timed out was fixed.
Other Changes
Reworked NPC loot dropping so that it doesn't block the cleanup after the destroyed NPC. This was causing problems when people cleaned out a squad of police.
Advancements in Planck Bubble Generation Technologies have allowed for the creation of containers that have higher capacity than volume. All containers can now contain 20% more than the space they occupy.
Planck Bubble Generation has the added restriction of not being able to place a Planck Bubble generator within another Planck Bubble, as that would cause an indeterminate graviton harmonics chain reaction, with an expected breakdown of causality.
The green/red bar in the buddies list to indicate the online status of a player, is back.
Character Creation templates have been added to make character creation easier. The old method (now called "Custom Method") is still available, too.
