Release Notes: September 25th, 2014

  • General: The Research and Development Pack has been updated to include 4 random Upgrade Accelerators in addition to its prior contents. Resolved an issue which was causing numerous issues with beaming down to ground maps while teamed involving bridge officers. Other player’s loot drops are now hidden on Invasion Zones such as Nukara Prime. Resolved numerous issues with clipping issues in the Species List, Face, and Hair selectors of the character creator. Omega Force set: Federation Aligned Female Romulans can now equip the Hips attach armor known as "Harvester, Reaper, and Quietus". Miner Shirts: The Miner Shirt for male characters no longer appears without a chest when set to "Off Duty". All Miner Shirts are now available under "Jacket Tight" and "Jacket Loose". Both under "Uniform" and "Off Duty". Male Romulan Aliengen’s eye colors no longer change when choosing a faction. Resolved an issue which was causing Klingon Honor Guard Arm Attach Left and Arm Attach Right to not appear for players who were Romulan or Reman. Klingon aligned Borg Liberated Reman Bridge Officers can now equip the Klingon Faction Reman Uppers. Female Romulan characters now have access to the New Styled Elegant hairstyle. Increased the range of allowed heights for female Romulan Aliens. Systems: Powers Captains must now be moving to benefit from the Dodge bonus granted by Sprint. All Weapon Remodulators can no longer be accidentally interrupted by the player performing other actions while it is being activated. Resolved an issue that was causing several Kit Abilities to have their chance to Expose cut in half, as if they were a Weapon Primary Attack. Ambush Doffs that apply DOTs can no longer be triggered by DOT affects themselves. The Psionic Assault debuff can now be cleansed. Frosted Boots: Removed the delay that prevents this device from being disabled for 1 second after being activated. This may have been causing the device to get stuck in an "on" state in certain edge cases. Resolved an issue that was preventing the 3 piece Dyson Console set bonus, Proton Energy Matrix, from correctly applying its cooldown reduction to the associated Console abilities. Phased Biomatter Cannon items now display the correct Cannon icon instead of using that of a Beam Array Resolved an issue causing Emergency Conn Hologram duty officers to reset the cooldown on Impulse Capacitance Cell. Updated photonic life forms so that they are immune to respirated gases and vacuums. They can still be affected by super-hot or corrosive environments, such as Nukara or the surface of a star, without special protection. Levelless C-store ship consoles are now considered Epic (gold) quality. This is a display change only, no functionality is changed. This does not apply to weapons. Lobi Store: All Lobi Store Ground Equipment has been updated to be more uniform in design: None can be sold to vendors. None have an EC value. None are Unique but players may purchase additional weapons for Bridge Crew. All are now Purple quality. Weapons may have gained one or two additional [Dmg], [CrtH] or [CrtD] mods in order to bring them up to Purple quality levels. Some weapons have benefited from this conversion more than others. All leveless Lobi Store Ground and Space Equipment will now stop scaling once the player reaches level 50. All Lobi Store Space and Ground Equipment can now be converted into Mk XII for free, once the player is level 50. This conversion will happen automatically by choosing to Upgrade the item. Players do not need to use a Tech Upgrade or spend Dilithium, unless players want to attempt to Upgrade it higher than Mk XII. This conversion process will make these items slightly better, but they will no longer automatically scale with your level as you progress. Once an item is converted in this manner it cannot be used by characters below level 50. The following items have been removed from the Lobi Store: Jem'Hadar Space Set - Dominion Circuitry Jem'Hadar Ground Set - Shrouded Nanofibers Jem'Hadar Pistol - Upgraded Firing Mechanism The items previously upgraded via these packs can now be improved via the Upgrade System Added a Jem'Hadar Armor costume pack to the Lobi Store, costumes tab. This item was added because the Upgrade Pack previously sold will no longer be available. Captains that already have attained this costume via the old means, this Costume Unlock does not contain any new visual unlocks, so does not need to be purchased. Updated retrofit phaser banks from the Constitution-class ship or mission reward from "Everything Old is New" so that they no longer are different based on fore or aft mounting. They can be placed in either forward or aft slots with no difference. Text has been updated to reflect this. As seen in the remastered TOS episodes, beams mounted aft fire a pair of beams just like the forward ones, but the weapon is still considered a standard 250-degree phaser beam array. Foundry: Addition of a number of new Foundry Objects: New Romulus Trees, Plants, Rocks, Waterfalls, Ruins, Props and various other details from New Romulus.

Rank Rewards UI Window: Added "R&D System unlocked" at level 15. Removed references to Exploration Clusters. The Finish Now button in R&D will now tell the player if they do not have enough Dilithium. Known Issues: Deadly Intent Module does not work on some weapons.
