DarkSpace Patch 1.517 - Released
- Reduced maximum range of supply drones from 250gu+(25gu*level) to 250gu+(5gu*level)
- Removed hotkey for applying an enhancement.
- Enhancement window is now visible in navigation mode.
- Armor and shield HP regeneration rate is now fixed. Enhancements affecting those stats will therefore no longer increase HP regeneration.
- Implemented heavy primary cannon variants.
- Tweaked planetary defense bases
- Added fighter variants for primary cannons.
- Reduced general combat effectiveness of all stations
- Added a page to view sent private messages (in the forums). There is a link at the top of your PM Inbox that will take you to your Sent Messages. Note that due to the way PMs are stored, messages your recipient deleted in the past can no longer be retrieved.
- Added an "Anniversaries" sidebox that shows players whose account creation date was on this day in years past - that is, it lists "DarkSpace Birthdays."
- Reworked the forum column spacing.
- Created a new beta map which provides a good setup for dueling, fleet wars, team events, and general play testing.
- Renamed the 'Jump Drive Mk III' Enhancement to 'Jump Drive Fuel Refill' to better reflect its behavior.
- Ships in garages are now audited against the original template when spawned into the world.
- Corrected aberrant hitpoint values for primary weapons.
- Re-factored core weapons to be in line with updated primary weapon values:
- Ion Cannons now do DAMAGE_KINETIC as well as DAMAGE_ENERGY.
- Quantum Singularity Torpedo's now have much higher splash damage, but now only do DAMAGE_ENERGY.
- Stellar Incinerators have reduced splash damage, greatly reduced splash radius, but vastly improved impact damage. They now do DAMAGE_PSI as well as DAMAGE_ENERGY, in keeping with game lore.
- Adjusted default number assignments for weapons, and improved logic for AI usage.
- Halved the splash radius of all core weapons and torpedo's.
- Players who are not subscribed cannot gain or lose rank and stats.
