Star Citizen Patch 1.1.6a - 14.08.2015

BALANCING/ANPASSUNGEN

Gameplay

Die Startposition für den Rennmodus wurde verbessert; Sie sind nun näher aneinander und sind gleichmäßiger positioniert.

Schiffe

Die ‚Lebenspunkte‘ für die Flügel der Gladius wurden erhöht, damit das Schiff seine Thruster nicht mehr so schnell verliert, wenn es Schaden nimmt.

Komponente

Die Streuung der Mantis GT-220 wurde reduziert um die DPS (Damage per Second – Schaden pro Sekunde) näher an den vergleichbaren Waffen zu bringen.
Die Feuerrate der Wrath-Plasmakanone wurde leicht erhöht, um diese nähe an vergleichbaren Waffen zu bringen.

FEHLERBEHEBUNGEN

Gameplay

Ein Fehler wurde behoben, der dafür sorgte, dass man nicht mehr mittendrin im Vanduul Swarm oder dem Rennmodus beitritt.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, der dafür sorgte, dass der 4.Spieler der für einen Vanduul Swarm ansteht, in eine eigene Instanz platziert wird.
Ein Fehler im Arena Commander wurde behoben, wodurch „normale“ Tode nach folglich, wie eine Selbstzerstörung bestraft wird.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch der GIM und die Matchmaking-Server abstürzten.
Ein Fehler wurde im Tutorial, Kaptitel 6, behoben, indem der AI-Pilot (Gilly) manchmal nicht auf die Gegner geschossen hat.
Der Fehler der zum Absturz auf Broken Moon im Squadron Battle führte, wurde behoben.
Der Fehler im Arena Commander wurde behoben, der dafür sorgte, dass der Helm nach dem Respawn zu stark wackelt.

Schiffe

Der Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch Merlin-Piloten, stehend im Cockpit waren, wenn sie in einem Match auf Broken Moon beigetreten sind.
Der Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch die Vanduul-Waffen auf der Scythe und der Glaive, nicht überhitzt sind.
Die „War“-Neutronenkanone wird nun überhitzen und danach nicht in der Lage sein, zu schießen.
Die „Weak“-Laserkanone wird solange nicht Feuern, bis sie sich dementsprechend abgekühlt hat.
Der Fehler wurde behoben, wo die linke Plasmakanone der Vanduul Glaive nach hinten gerichtet war. Dies beeinträchtigt nicht die Performance der Plasmakanone! Es war nur ein optischer Fehler.
Der Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch die Drake Cutlass zu lange gebraucht hat, um den Boost-Tank zu füllen. Dieser sollte sich nun innerhalb von ~60 Sekunden regenerieren.
Der Fehler wurde behoben, wo das Interieur der Vanduul Glaive nicht richtig dargestellt wurde oder einfach verschwand, wenn man in das Schiff eingestiegen ist.

Benutzeroberfläche

Der Fehler wurde behoben, damit in allen Arena Commander Modis eine Warnung an die Spieler herausgegeben wird bzgl. der Bestrafung für eine Selbstzerstörung.

Star Citizen Patch 1.2 - 29.08.2015

Star Citizen Alpha 1.2

Star Citizen Patch 1.2

Star Citizen Patch 1.2 and the Social Module have been released to live! This patch provides access to our first multiplayer planet side environment, ArcCorp’s Area18 landing zone, with all the scenic vistas our team has been hard at work on. This will also include our first iteration of our augmented reality system, emotes and chat system.
Contents:

Hangar
Additions
Balance/Tweaks
Fixes
Arena Commander
Fixes
Social Module
Additions

Hangar Module
Additions:

Gameplay

The main elevator is now active for all pilot hangars and will allow access to our multiplayer ArcCorp module.
For Selfland, Revel & York, and Aeroview Hangars, you can find the elevator through the double-doors directly behind your character when spawning into the central bay. Once inside, the elevator to ArcCorp is located on your right.
For VFG Industrial Hangar, you can find the double-doors underneath the platform where your character spawns, across from any ship you currently have in the central bay. Once you’ve passed through the double doors, the elevator to ArcCorp is located on your right.
During this testing phase of the social module and ArcCorp, characters will now appear in one of six random gear loadouts when they spawn into the Hangar. You can only swap between the six loadouts in the Hangar, via the “F6” key.
The available loadouts are Marine Light, Medium, Heavy and Outlaw Light, Medium, Heavy.
Whatever loadout a character is wearing when they travel to ArcCorp will be retained for the rest of that play session.


User Interface

The screenshot keybind has been moved to “Print Screen”. “F12” is now the toggle for the chat interface.

Balance/Tweaks:

Gameplay

Transition animations for moving between standing, crouch and idle have received some minor improvement for a smoother and more realistic experience.
Jump animations have received some minor improvements for a smoother experience.

Fixes:

Ships

Fixed a collision issue with the Origin M50 Interceptor that allowed players to see into the ships cockpit from the outside and potentially become stuck.
Fixed an issue with the Vanduul Glaive, where the hands of the pilot would not always connect properly with the ship handles and interior components when entering or exiting the ship.
Fixed an issue with the beds in the Cutlass Black, where your character would teleport outside of the ship when trying to lay down in the starboard bed.


Environment

A number of collision issues that were allowing characters to clip out of the Revel & York hangar have been resolved.
A number of collision issues that were allowing characters to clip out of the VFG Industrial Hangar have been resolved.


User Interface

Fixed an issue where graphics in the game options menu would occasionally overlap with each other.

Arena Commander Module:
Fixes:

Gameplay

Fixed an issue in Arena Commander where hosts were not always being removed from the Lobby when they left the match.
Fixed an issue in Arena Commander where the host of a game would sometimes not be able to cancel their search due to matchmaking crashing.
Fixed an issue in Arena Commander where players could be put into a broken lobby if the matchmaking service crashed while they were in a game.
The HUD colors on the Avenger, Gladiator, Hornet (all variants) and Cutlass (all variants) have been updated to be consistent.
Fixed an issue where the countermeasure interface on the Mustang HUD (all variants) would overlap with other UI elements.
Fixed an issue where the Vanduul Glaive designated “Tank” at the end of Tutorial Chapter 6 would sometimes become immortal.

Social Module
Additions:

Gameplay

Our first multiplayer planet side environment, the ArcCorp Area 18 Landing Zone, is now available for testing.
During this testing phase where players will have a shared ‘spawn’ location, player collision is disabled on ArcCorp.
The first areas available to explore in ArcCorp include:
ArcCorp Customs area.
Medical Bay.
JobWell, sponsored by the Trade and Development Division of ArcCorp.
G~Loc Bar.
Astro-Armada.
Dumper’s Depot.
Cubby Blast.
Some areas of ArcCorp are not yet available during this initial launch. Some of those intentionally off-limits include:
The Casaba Outlet.
The Medical Bay Emergency Room.
The ArcCorp landing pad.
The elevator to the second floor of Astro-Armada.
The firing range at Cubby Blast.
You can return to your Hangar when you’re done exploring ArcCorp, via the transport elevator in ArcCorp customs that you originally arrived in. You can also leave via the “Return to Hanger” button in the game menu.
Our first set of fully animated emotes are now available for players to use in ArcCorp and the Hangar.
Emotes can be used in the chat UI by typing “/” followed by the emote. Some emotes also have multiple variations, which you can use by adding a number at the end of the emote command.
Example: /cheer4
The full list of available emotes and their variations can be viewed in the chat interface, via the “?” button.
Augmented Reality is now available for players to test in ArcCorp. You can access this new functionality via the “F2” key.
In this initial release, Augmented Reality will allow you to see character name plates as well as information on shop items in ArcCorp.
Our chat interface has launched and is now available for players to use in both ArcCorp and the Hangar. You can bring up the chat interface via “F12”.
Players can now chat in our first channel (designated Local at the moment).
The chat channels are phased by instance. Each individual Hangar, ArcCorp Instance and Arena Commander Instance have their own chat channel.
The Left Alt key + “G” allows you to orbit your camera, so you can view your character from multiple angles which is shared between the multiplayer ArcCorp and single player Hangar.

Known Issues:

Gameplay

Character collision will sometimes disable within ArcCorp, particularly in and around customs.
Character animations will sometimes desync between clients.

Ships

Characters will appear hanging outside of the bottom of the Gladiator if they enter the ship and sit down in the pilots seat, or if they die and respawn.
When respawning in the Gladiator, the player will spawn inside the body of the ship.

Character

The “Heavy Outlaw” load out currently has a hole between the neck and chest armor.

User Interface

The chat interface cannot be resized at this time.
Social Module elevator UI will incorrectly display “Connection Failed” instead of a “Server Full” message.
Augmented Reality text will sometimes not display other characters names.

Technical

Clients can sometimes get stuck on a loading screen if they are connected to a instance that no longer exists.

Re: Star Citizen Release + Patch Notes

Post by Haargon »

Star Citizen Launcher Update auf die Version 2.4.0 24.09.2015

Wir veröffentlichen heute neue Features für unseren Live Service Launcher mit der Version 2.4

Download Start Verzögerung


Nach dem Login wird das Download Programm 10 Sekunden lang nicht mit dem Download beginnen. Diese Verzögerung dient dazu, euch Zeit zu geben um zwischen dem Live Service und dem PTU zu wählen, bevor der automatische Download beginnt.

HTTP Transfer Mode

– Dieser Kompatibilitätsmodus ist für alle User gedacht, die nicht in der Lage sind einen Torrent zu benutzen um das Spiel Downloaden zu können. Er ist langsamer als der Download mit Torrent aber es werden die selben Inhalte heruntergeladen. Dieser Modus kann sehr nützlich sein wenn ihr den Download über ein Netzwerk mit Einschränkungen (wie z.B. in einer Universität) vornehmen müsst. Das Addieren von zusätzlichen, veränderten Daten hilft hier nichts, was bedeutet, dass das Überprüfen von Dateien, oder wenn ihr den Patch für eine neue Version braucht, ihr einen Großteil des Spieles herunterladen müsst.

– Um diesen Modus zu aktivieren müsst ihr in der „PatcherState“ Datei (einfach mit dem Editor öffnen) folgendes eintragen:

Downloadmethod = HTTP


(Anm. der Redaktion: Diese Datei findet ihr in eurem Star Citizen Installations-Verzeichnis im Ordner „Patcher“)

Optimierte P2P-Einstellungen

Die Peer to Peer Settings wurden so eingestellt, dass sie optimal für alle User mit Kabelanschluss sein sollten. Wenn ihr P2P eingeschaltet habt, sollte das nun nicht mehr so viel von der Geschwindigkeit einbüßen, als wenn ihr P2P ausgeschalten habt.



Erweiterte P2P Einstellungen

Für diejenigen unter euch die die Standart Einstellungen als nicht Optimal empfinden, haben wir einige Optionen für Power User bereit gestellt. Diese Optionen findet ihr in der Datei _TorrendSettings, die beim ersten Start des Launchers erstellt wird. Nach dem ändern der Einstellungen muss der Launcher neu gestartet werden.

Verfügbare Einstellungen:

active_downloads – Limit für gleichzeitige Dateidownloads.

active_limit – Obergrenze an Downloads + Seeds.

active_seeds – Limit für gleichzeitige gesetzte Dateien.

connections_limit – Begrenzung der Anzahl der gleichzeitigen Torrent Verbindungen.

connection_speed – Anzahl der Verbindungsversuche pro Sekunde

max_peerlist_size – Maximale Anzahl von Peers, die der Launcher gleichzeitig verfolgt

unchoke_slots_limit – Maximale Anzahl von Slots, die unabhängig von der Übertragungsrate für Peers offen bleiben werden.

Danke und gute Jagd!

– Will Leverett

Star Ccitizen Patch 1.3.0 - 23.10.2015

HANGAR
Neuigkeiten:

Umgebung

Der Greycat Buggy hat ein neues Aussehen, neue Animationen und ein überarbeites Handling
Der Fishtank in allen verfügbaren Hangars haben ein neues Aussehen erhalten.
Der Fahrstuhl zur Area 18 wird nun alle verfügbaren Instanzen von ArcCorp anzeigen, genau so wie viele Leute insgesamt und wie viele von deiner Kontaktliste da sind.
Es gibt jetzt einen “Loadout Selector” der sich im Spieler-Hangar befindet und Euch erlaubt auszusuchen, mit welchem Loadout ihr im Hangar und in ArcCorp herumlaufen wollt.
Dies ersetzt die zufällige Loadout-Auswahl die mit „F6“ ausgelöst wurde.
Aeroview – Der Loadout-Selector befindet sich im Haupthangar, an der Wand rechts hinter Euch, wenn Ihr im Hangar erscheint.
Selfland – Der Loudout-Selector ist auf der Plattform rechts vom Charakter wenn Ihr im Hangar erscheint. Gleich neben dem EA-Pod.
VFG Industrial – Der Loadout-Selector befindet sich links von eurem Charakter wenn Ihr im Hangar erscheint, gegenüber zum Fahrstuhl, der zum Büro führt.
Revel & York – Der Loadout-Selector befindet sich auf der linken Seite des Charakters wenn ihr im Hangar erscheint. Gleich neben dem Holotable.

Balancing/Verbesserungen:

Umgebung

Der Selfland Hangar ist dabei eine überarbeite Beleuchtung zu bekommen um den Gesamteindruck und die Atmosphäre zu verbessern.

User Interface

Die alte Standard-Funktion auf „F11“ (HUD maximieren) hat keine Funktion mehr und wurde entfernt.
„F6“ Taste kleidet den in-game Charakter nicht mehr mit einem zufälligem Loadout ein.
Das freie umhersehen mit der Kamera kann nun mit “Shift+G” aktiviert werden.
“Strg+F” ist nun die Tastenkombination um aus dem Schiff Auszugsteigen.
Dies wurde für alle Spielmodis freigeschaltet
Das sitzen in der Retaliator und Gladiator wurde gefixt und es gibt jetzt eine visuelle Erschütterung im inneren der Vanduul Scythe.

Fehlerbehebungen:

Schiffe

Ein Fehler wurde behoben der dazu führte, dass man im Pilotensitz der Retaliator nicht richtig ausgerichtet worden ist.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, der dazu führte das man außerhalb der Gladiator auftaucht, wenn man sich auf den Pilotensitz hinsetzen will.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch der Pilot einer Vanduul-Scythe ein ungewöhnliches Kamerawackeln erlebt, wenn man sich in-game umschaut.

Umgebung

Der Fehler im Revel & York Hangar wurde behoben, wodurch die Tür manchmal ohne Animation aufschlägt wenn diese zu schnell hintereinander getriggert worden ist.
Mehrere Texturkonflikte im Selfland Hangar wurden behoben.
Der Fehler wodurch die Hände wie „gebrochen“ aussahen, wenn man den Greycat Buggy fährt, wurde behoben.

User Interface

Der Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch die Framerate beim Client fiel, wenn man mit dem Cursor über einen scrollbaren Text fuhr.
Der Fehler wurde behoben, der dazu führte, dass zu schnelles wechseln zwischen den Spielmenüs das Scrollen mit dem Gerät verhindert.




ARENA COMMANDER
Neuigkeiten:

Gameplay

Grundlegende Physics-Grids für das Interieur ist nun live!
Die Avenger, 300er Serie, alle Auroras und Nicht-Racer Mustangs erlauben es nun, euren Sitz während des Fliegens zu verlassen.
Da die kompletten Mechaniken noch nicht an ihrem richtigen Platz sind, kann es sein, dass euer Charakter aus dem Schiff hängt oder innerhalb des Schiffes im Zero-G Modus ist.

Komponente

Die Behring C-788 Ballistische Kanone wurde dem Game hinzugefügt.
Diese Waffe nutzt eine S4-Halterung und feuert mit 2,2 Schuss pro Sekunde.
Size 4 Feste-Halterungen wurden für die Hornet und der Cutlass Turrets hinzugefügt, um die Ballistischen Kanonen unterbringen zu können.
Die feste S4-Halterung ersetzt den existierenden Turret
Apocalypse Arms WarSeries SZ4 Mass Driver wurde dem Game hinzugefügt.
Diese Waffe nutzt eine S2-Halterung und feuert mit 0,7 Schuss pro Sekunde.

Balancing/Verbesserungen:

Gameplay

Raketen Explosionen und Auswirkungen haben erhebliche Veränderungen bekommen, um das Aussehen und Gefühl zu verbinden.
Die Gesundheit aller Schiffe wurde erhöht.
Die allgemeine Stärke aller Schiffsschilde wurde erhöht um den Alpha-Schaden zu reduzieren und man so länger überleben kann.
Raketenschaden wurde ein wenig erhöht um gegenüber der höheren Schiffsgesundheit eine gewisse Effektivität zu wahren.
Die Aufschaltzeit der Raketen wurde angepasst.
Die Geschwindigkeit von Energiewaffen wurde getuned, damit diese schneller sind als die ballistischen.
Unsere Philosophie dabei ist, dass Energiewaffen solange kein Schaden machen, solange die Schilde nicht unten sind, es benötigt mehr Treffer mit Energiewaffen um richtigen Schaden zu machen, so dass die Zielgenauigkeit noch wichtiger wird.
Schaden der Energiewaffen wurde leicht reduziert um auszugleichen.
Die ballistischen Waffen haben einen entsprechenden Buff erhalten im Bezug auf die potentielle Reichweite, so dass sie unter Umständen noch ihr Ziel treffen können, die weiter weg sind.

Komponente

Plasma-”Blitz”-Reichweite wurde um 30% verringert für die Vanduul “Wrath” Plasmakanone.
Neutronen-”Blitz”-Reichweite wurde um 20% verringert für die Vanduul “War” Neutronenkanone.

Schiffe

Die Cutlass erhielt geringfügige Verbesserungen an den beweglichen Triebwerken um die Manövrierbarkeit zu verbessern.
Die folgenden Schiffe und all ihre Varianten erhielten ein Update zu den Schild-Netzen und Animationen, damit diese besser zu ihrem Schiffsmodell passen:
Avenger, Gladius, Mustang, Cutlass, Freelancer, 300 Series, M50, Gladiator, Glaive
Die Leistungsaufnahme des Motors der M50 wurde erhöht.
Die Stärke der M50-Triebwerke wurde verringert.
Diese beiden Änderungen sollen sicherstellen, dass die Wahl, ob ich eine Waffe mit hohem Energieverbrauch oder eine energiesparende Waffe an der M50 habe, Einfluss auf die Performance und Geschwindkeit hat.
Interagierende Charakter-Animationen wurde für alle “flight-ready” Schiffe aktuallisiert.

Umgebung

Die folgenden Schiffe und all ihre Varianten haben Verbesserungen an dem Audio für die Thruster bekommen:
Avenger, Gladius, Hornet, 300er Serie, m50, Glaive, Scythe

User Interface

“Vorrauschauen”-Modus ist nun Standardmäßig aktiviert. Dies kann mit “Rechts-ALT+M” umgeschaltet werden.
Der “Gimbal-Lock” ist nun auf “Linke-STRG+G”

Fehlerbehebungen:

Gameplay

Ein Fehler wurde behoben, der dazu führte, dass Spieler nicht aus dem Arena Commander entfernt worden sind, wenn diese nichts tun, sondern erst wenn alle Spiele “idlen”.
Tutorial Kapitel 3 wurde gefixed, wo die Raketen manchmal die Gegner nicht richtig verfolgt haben.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, indem das Waffenfeuer außerhalb des Laufes erscheint ist, wenn das Schiff sich während des Schiessens bewegt.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch ein anvisiertes Schiff “verloren” ging, wenn der Abstand zum Ziel größer wird, obwohl dieser noch in Sensorenreichweite ist.

Komponente

Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch Projektile, die von Schiffswaffen abgefeuert worden sind, manchmal aus der Waffe hervorstehen und so Schaden verursachen oder Fehler anzeigen.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch gimbaled Thruster visuell nicht korrekt rotiert haben.
Die „War“-Plasmakanone für die Vanduul Scythe word nun auch korrekt als „Wrath“-Plasmakanone im in-game HUD angezeigt.

Schiffe

Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wobei eine von drei Außenkameras für die Aurora (alle Varianten), manchmal in der Hülle des Schiffes feststeckt.
Es sollte keine sichtbare Lücke mehr zwischen dem unteren Teil der hinteren Tür und dem Boden in der Cutlass geben (alle Varianten).
Eine Animation wurde repariert wo die Hände des Charakters beim hinsetzen in den Turret der Gladiator durch die Kontrolleinheiten „durchgehen“.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch die Vanduul Glaive gelegentlich mit der Nase nach oben zeigend landet.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch der Boost der Vanduul Glaive nicht funktioniert, obwohl Sprit im Tank ist.
Die Texturen für den Pilotensitz der Avenger fehlen nicht mehr.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wodurch die 300er Serie, Avenger und Hornet (alle Varianten), beim landen manchmal nach hinten neigen.
Die fehlenden grüne Texturen der Aurora LN wurde gefixed.
Ein Fehler wurde beim Audio der Hornet Antrieb behoben, wobei es sowohl beim beschleunigen als auch beim boosten zu einem Unterschall bei den meisten Lautstärken kam.
Die Vanduul Glaive wird nicht mehr als “@vehicle_NameVNCL_Scythe_Glaive” im Arena Commander angezeigt, sondern mit der richtigen Beschriftung.

Technisches

Ein Blackscreen wurde behoben, der auftaucht, wenn man einer Lobby beitritt, wenn der GIM-Service down ist.
Die Lobby kann diesbezüglich nun eine Fehlermeldung geben, wenn der Client versucht einer Lobby beizutreten, während der GIM nicht erreichbar ist.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, der dafür sorgte, dass Clients manchmal im Ladebildschirm stecken bleiben, wenn sie einer Instanz beitreten, die nicht mehr existiert.
Ein Absturz wurde behoben, der auftrat wenn man im Arena Commander X zum Respawnen drückt und man vorher durch den Zusammenstoß mit einem Asteroiden gestorben ist.
Ein Blackscreen wurde behoben, der aufrtritt, wenn der Lobby-Service nicht in der Lage war mit dem Instance-Manager zu kommunizieren.
Ein Lobby-Fehler wurde behoben, wo der Host andere Karten- und Regeleinstellungen im UI sieht, als die anderen Spieler.
Dies passiert wenn der Host ein Spiel erstellt, dieses verlässt und einer anderen Lobby beitritt oder eine neue Lobby erstellt.
Ein Fehler wurde behoben, wo die Spieler nach einem beendeten Spiel nicht wieder „Ready“ drücken konnten.
Dies trat auf wenn Spieler einer Gruppe im Status „Im Match“ blieb im GIM.

User Interface

Re: Star Citizen Release + Patch Notes

Post by Haargon »

Star Citizen Patch 2.0.0.0 - 11.12.2015

Star Citizen Alpha 2.0.0

Star Citizen Alpha Patch v2.0.0

Alpha Patch 2.0.0 has been released to our live servers, and is now available for players! Your launcher should should show “2.0.0-305217” as the client version. This patch provides access to our first sampling of the Persistent Universe in the form of the gas giant Crusader and surrounding environs. These locations include Port Olisar transit station, Covalex Shipping Hub, Security Post Kareah and many scenic asteroid fields, comms arrays and research satellites that our team has been hard at work on. It also includes our first iteration on FPS, Multicrew technology, interior physics grid, quantum travel, IFCS, EVA, missions, and so much more.

It is strongly recommended that players delete their USER folder for the Public client after patching, particularly if you start encountering any odd character graphical issues or crash on loading. The USER folder can be found (in default installations) at C:\Program Files\Cloud Imperium Games\StarCitizen\Public.

Please review our current list of 2.0.0 Known Issues, and take full advantage of our new Issue Council area of the Community site to report any bugs you encounter, as well as contribute to other players submissions.

A few important call-outs:

We are aware of and investigating an issue occasionally affecting game servers that will cause clients to receive a “Error Code 7” when connecting.
Because this error is also triggered due to having an incorrect client version, please run the file verification process in the launcher if you have not done so since patching to 2.0.0. If the issue continues, try connecting again after 5 minutes.
Approaching the atmosphere of a planet or moon too closely will result in your ship receiving a warning, and if you continue flying toward it for too long, your ship will begin to rattle apart and be destroyed.
This is not how the functionality will work long term, and is temporary for the purposes of this stage of Alpha.
This will also happen if you approach the edge of the Crusader system.

Hangar Module
Additions:

Gameplay

After launching the game, users now load into the Main Menu rather then going directly to Hangar.
From the Main Menu, you have the following options available: “Universe”, “Go to Hangar” and “Electronic Access”.
“Universe” offers you the Hangar elevator UI, and the ability to travel to either Port Olisar, Crusader or Area 18, ArcCorp without loading into the hangar.
Our first iteration on a Party grouping system is here!
You can right-click on players in your contact list, invite them to party, leave party and see all members of your party through the Contact interface (default hotkey “F11” on keyboard).
This is very much a work in progress system with some known issues, and we will be continuing to work on it.
Crusader and Area 18, ArcCorp are still accessible through the elevator in the Hangar.
For Selfland, Revel & York, and Aeroview Hangars, you can find the elevator through the double-doors directly behind your character when spawning into the central bay. Once inside, the elevator to ArcCorp and Crusader is located on your right.
For VFG Industrial Hangar, you can find the double-doors underneath the platform where your character spawns, across from any ship you currently have in the central bay. Once you’ve passed through the double doors, the elevator to ArcCorp is located on your right.


Ships

The new Constellation model is now live for the Constellation Andromeda, in both the Hangar and Crusader.
The Vanguard Warden is now Hangar ready!


User Interface

The crouch hotkey now acts as both a “hold” by holding down the crouch button, or can be toggled on and off.

Fixes:

Ships

Fixed an issue where the Retaliator would sometimes have graphical errors when viewed from outside the ship.
Fixed an issue where characters would sink through the normal seat collision when sitting in the pilot and co-pilot seat in the Cutlass Blue and Red.
Fixed an issue where characters would sometimes blackout after climbing into the pilot’s chair for the Vanduul Glaive, Scythe and Aegis Retaliator.
Fixed an issue where the Retaliator maneuvering thrusters were not in the landing mode when in the Hangar.


Environment

Fixed an issue where the back wall of the Industrial Hangar would sometimes look damaged.
Fixed an issue where the first-person camera would shake violently if it was tilted upward while a character was looking forward.

Arena Commander Module:
Additions:

Gameplay

EVA and zero-g animations are now available for all flight-ready ships, in both Arena Commander and Crusader.
Landing zone icons now only appear on the HUD when the character is in radar range and landing mode is enabled.
Detection range for Landing Zones is now set to 1500m.
Our new IFCS flight module has gone live! Three flight modes are available. Precision, SCM and Cruise.
You can switch between them via the “V” key on the keyboard, “A” on the gamepad and Button 6 on the joystick by default.
Precision can only be accessed from SCM, while the ship is decelerating or stopped.
Cruise can only be accessed from SCM, while the ship is accelerating or at top speed.
SCM can always be accessed from either mode. This is the closest to our original flight mode, but with some changes in handling and performance for some ships.
We now have both Afterburner and Boost available.
Cruise mode is not available in Arena Commander modes or Tutorial, as the high speeds make it very easy for ships to hit the simulation boundaries.
Interior Physics Grids have been implemented for all flyable ships, in both Crusader and Arena Commander.
The first iteration of playable EMP attacks and mechanics are now available for testing.
It is now possible for ship components and HUD to be knocked offline by an EMP attack.
“Disabled” modes have been added to all components.


Components

The Aegis Avenger Warlock EMP Module is now available for testing.
By default it is tied to Weapon Group 2. Activating Weapon Group 2 will begin charging the weapon.
There is a 10 second charge up with significant power use and 1.5s later it will fire, with an effective EMP range of 300m.


Ships

Characters that are inside of a ship belonging to another player will die when the ship-owner logs out of the game.
This is not how the functionality will work long term, but it is to prevent players from becoming stuck in space or trapped in an abandoned ship.
Multicrew functionality is now available on the Anvil Gladiator and Cutlass. Pilots are encouraged to look for gunners on Crusader to take it for a spin.
The new Avenger Titan, Stalker and Warlock variants are now Hangar and Flight-ready!
These can be accessed on both Crusader and Arena Commander.
The Avenger Warlock is equipped with the first iteration of its EMP weapon.
Crew stations and screens for adjusting power and shields are now functional on Multicrew ships.


Environment

VFX work has been done on many ships, for both combat and destruction.

Balance/Tweaks:

Gameplay

The following changes to ships flight-handling have been made for the SCM mode.
The P-52 Merlin stop time is now 4.6s.
Cutlass now has 4s acceleration, 5.5s vertical strafe, break time is 9.6s, top speed in SCM is 210.
Aurora has a slightly higher jerkiness to its handling, to make it feel a little more like a cargo vessel.
Both fuel capacity and recharge rate for boost has been rebalanced for all ships as part of the IFCS flight model.
Increased missile ignition time to 1.0s.
Reduced the spread of laser cannons by 50%.
With the addition of EMP mechanics, distortion damage weapons now has the ability to disable ships systems and components.

The M50 has received a slight increase in speed for SCM mode.
Added the ability to activate/deactivate the “blade” weapon on the Captured Vanduul Scythe via the HUD so that it functions the same as the Vanduul Glaive.
Gladiator detail levels have been updated for better performance.
Gladius detail levels have been updated for better performance.
Mustang (all variants) detail levels have been updated for better performance.
Hornet (all variants) detail levels have been updated for better performance.


Technical

Fixed an issue where players could not lock a missile on someone unless they are within firing range.


Ships

Fixed an issue where the Vanduul Scythe was perpetually stuck in landing mode.
Fixed an issue where players could not reattach the Cutlass engines if they were removed on the holotable.
Fixed an issue where the Vanduul Scythe was perpetually stuck in landing mode.
Fixed an issue where the “Use” button for the Cutlass turret would not appear or be inaccessible due to conflicting prompts.
Fixed an issue where the HUD of the Hornet (all Variants) and Gladius would become detached from the player when accelerating, causing it to be left behind in space.


Environment

Fixed a clipping issue when a character would enter the rear turret of the Gladiator.
The Hornet now has left and right roll animations for the pilot.
Fixed a number of lighting issues in Chapter 1 of the Tutorial.


Technical

Fixed an issue where going into EVA on landing in Arena Commander would crash the game client to desktop.
Fixed an issue where players would get placed in a different map and rules from the ones listed in the Lobby.


User Interface

Fixed an issue where the “lag pip” for aiming weapons would sometimes disappear or drop out when the aiming ship was moving at very high speed or high distance.
Removed several irrelevant hints from the Tutorial.
Fixed an issue where joystick deadzone settings had disappeared from the control options.
Fixed an issue where joystick saturation settings had disappeared from the control options.

Social Module/Persistent Universe:
Additions:

Gameplay

Crusader is now available for players to access!
You can access the main transit hub for Crusader (Port Olisar) from the elevator inside of your Hangar or the Main Menu -> “Universes” option.
After a short journey your character will awaken in one of the many cozy bedrooms on Port Olisar.
Terminals on Port Olisar are available courtesy of Crusader Industries, to allow pilots to request flight-ready ships for delivery at one of Port Olisars convenient landing pads.
The ships provided at the terminals will have a default loadout for the ship, and any changes made at the Hangar holotable will not be reflected.
Ships requested via the terminal are locked to the person who summoned the ship, for approximately eight minutes, after which they are considered abandoned and can be piloted by anyone. Abandoned ships will eventually despawn.
This is not how the functionality will work long term, and is temporary for the purposes of testing.
There are many locations in the surrounding Crusader space to be discovered and explored, including Covelex Shipping Hub, Cry-Astro Service Station and others.
However not all locations available for exploration are immediately shown in your Quantum Travel navigation points. Try repairing Comm Arrays or roaming the map via Quantum Travel to see what you may find!
Port Olisar is a Armistice Zone. All weapons are disabled while in the zone, and pilots will need to leave the area to settle disputes or seek adventure.
The first iteration on Quantum Travel is now available for testing in Crusader.
It has been activated for all currently flyable ships except the P-52 Merlin, which is a fighter and is not intended to be capable of independent Quantum Travel.
Quantum Travel can be enabled with the “B” key on the keyboard by default. The default keybindings are “Left Tumbler+Left DPad” on the Gamepad, and “Button 12” on the Joystick.
Once enabled, you can rotate your ship until you have a local Navigation Point highlighted. The highlighted navigation point will have a large circle around it in the HUD.
Once you have the Point of Interest highlighted, press the middle mouse button, to enter Quantum Travel to that destination. The default keybinding is “Y” on the Gamepad and “Button 4” on the Joystick.
If an object exists in the path between the ship and the selected destination, the Nav point will warn that the target is “Obstructed”.
You cannot eject or self-destruct while in Quantum Travel. This is intended.
Fuel mechanics are also in place.
When you activate Quantum Travel mode, the Nav points will indicate how much fuel it will take to reach that destination, as a % of your remaining fuel.
Quantum Travel will let you transit even if you insufficient fuel to reach the destination, however it will only take you as far as your fuel allows.
Keep that and the location of the nearest refuel point in mind when planning to Quantum Travel.
Your available Quantum Fuel is listed in the bottom-right of the center HUD for most ships.
Cry-Astro Service Station 042 provides repair, refuel and restock to ships in Crusader space.
This includes reloading missiles, ballistic ammo and fuel for Quantum drives.
Weapons, Ammo and MediPens for healing needs are also available to be found on Security Post Kareah, including the Behring P4-AR.
Pirates have been known to roam and harass honest citizens exploring Crusader space. Wise pilots should be on their guard.
Approaching the atmosphere of a planet or moon too closely will result in your ship receiving a warning, and if you continue flying toward it for too long, your ship will begin to rattle apart and be destroyed.
This is not how the functionality will work long term, and is temporary for the purposes of testing.
This will also happen if you approach the edge of the Crusader system.
MobiGlas is now active, and can be accessed via “F9” hotkey.
The only applications currently usable are the Scheduler and Journal, which allow you to read and view the status of Missions as you receive them during gameplay.
This can be accessed all around the planetary zone, in EVA, and while in a space craft.
Viewing the MobiGlas UI while on-ship dims both the ship UI and visor to allow the MobiGlas UI to be visible.
The “Back” button for MobiGlas applications is located at the bottom-center of the screen.
Our first set of missions are now available around Crusader for players to test!
The first one is to repair the Comms Arrays in orbit around Crusader, which will allow other missions to be discovered.
You can track missions via the MobiGlas Journal application, by clicking on the yellow hexagon icon next to the entry for that mission.
Missions are generated and offered at-random, and some are much rarer then others.


Ships

The Constellation and Retaliator is now flyable in Crusader.
Both ships have a longer self-destruct timer than previous ships to allow crew adequate time to escape.
All crew stations on both ships can be used, though some have limited functionality while the underlying systems they are intended to control are being iterated on.
Only the Constellation Andromeda variant is combat-ready at this point.


User Interface

Characters have a flashlight on Crusader, activated by the “O” hotkey on the keyboard.

Balance/Tweaks:

Gameplay

The number of private channels a user can have or be a part of is now limited to 15.
Greycat Buggies now only spawn in the under-construction Galleria area of ArcCorp.


Character

Crouch-walk animation for characters has received some quality of life improvements to allow it to flow better.

Fixes:

Environment

Fixed an issue with the Dumper’s Depot marquee loading in slower then other objects.
Fixed a collision issue that allowed players to trap other characters against the G~Loc bar counter.
Fixed a number of collision issues in and around G~Loc.
Fixed a number of art and texture conflicts around ArcCorp.
Fixed an issue where the wall-mounted fans in the back of G~Loc were not properly aligned to the wall.
Fixed an issue where a bright, flickering light was present outside of AstroArmada and casting strange shadows.
Fixed an issue where the lights in the center of AstroArmada would flicker on and off as characters ran through the center.
Particle effects have received a performance pass, particularly around thrusters and engines.
Fixed an issue where the M50 in AstroArmada, ArcCorp was missing its engines.
Fixed an issue where a player could see through their characters body when looking down.


User Interface

Fixed an issue where the “Pending Private Chat” invitation would show an “Accept” and “Accept” button, rather than “Accept” and “Decline”.


Technical

Fixed several server side crashes.
Fixed a number of issues with decals around ArcCorp.
Fixed an issue where players with SLI enabled would crash to desktop when attempting to join ArcCorp.

Re: Star Citizen Release + Patch Notes

Post by Haargon »

Star Citizen Patch 2.1.1 -

Alpha Patch 2.1.1 wurde auf den Live-Servern veröffentlicht, und ist nun für alle Spieler verfügbar! Dieser Patch beinhaltet hauptsächlich Leistungsverbesserungen und Absturzbehebungen für Crusader und den Arena Commander, sowie ein paar Balanceänderungen für Schiffe.

Euer Launcher sollte „2.1.1-313699“ als Clientversion zeigen. Es wird dringend empfohlen, dass Spieler ihren USER-Ordner vom Public-Client nach dem Patchvorgang löschen, besonders wenn ihr beginnt, auf irgendwelche merkwürdigen Grafikfehler am Charakter oder einem Absturz beim Ladevorgang zu treffen. Der USER-Ordner kann (bei standardmäßigen Installationen) in C:\Program Files\Cloud Imperium Games\StarCitizen\Public gefunden werden.

Bitte seht unsere Liste an Known Issues der 2.1.1 durch (Übersetzung), und nutzt den vollen Vorteil unseres Issue Council-Bereichs auf der Community-Seite, um jegliche Fehler zu melden, auf die Ihr trefft, und zu den Einreichungen anderer Spieler beizutragen.

Ein paar wichtige Informationen:

Wir wissen, dass ArcCorp immer noch unter manchen Texturproblemen und LOD-Aufploppen leidet.
Es gibt einen massiven Audioverzerrungsfehler, der während langen Spielsitzungen auftritt, den wir untersuchen.
Das Zerstören des Gefechtsturmes eines Schiffes kann es manchmal auf solch eine Weise zerstören, dass es nicht von anderen Schiffen anvisiert werden kann.
Die Vanguard kann manchmal so spawnen, dass eine oder mehrere ihrer Laser in das Schiff hineinragen.

Star Citizen Patch 2.2.0 - 04.02.2016

Star Citizen Patch v2.2.0

Alpha Patch 2.2.0 has been released to Live, and is now available for players! This patch provides access to our new flyable Sabre, the hangar-ready Khartu-al, our new Hostility, Monitored Zone and Bounty systems as well as tweaks to our FPS animations, new FPS weapons, and numerous fixes across the game.

Your launcher should show “2.2.0-327398” as the client version. It is strongly recommended that players delete their USER folder for the Public client after patching, particularly if you start encountering any odd character graphical issues or crash on loading. The USER folder can be found (in default installations) at C:\Program Files\Cloud Imperium Games\StarCitizen\Public.

Please review our current list of 2.2.0 Known Issues FAQ, and take full advantage of our Issue Council area of the Community site to report any bugs you encounter, as well as contribute to other players submissions.

Important Issues:

If you’re copying the 2.2.0 PTU/Test build into your Live folder, please be sure to delete any .cfg files from your Test build first and use the “Verify” function in the Launcher Options before accessing the game.
Ship geometry can very occasionally disappear or turn invisible.
Using the Holotable in the Revel & York hangar will cause the game client to become unresponsive.

New Features
Star Systems:
Crusader

We have increased the number of players and player-ships per instance of Crusader from 16 to 24.
The scale of the system has adjusted, the planet Crusader and moons are at a more appropriate distance from one another.
Comm Arrays have been re-positioned accordingly.
Comm Array 8 has been removed.
The Comm Arrays have been changed drastically as part of the new Monitored Space and Bounty systems and no longer unlock Research missions.
For the time being, Research Missions are now offered to characters who visit ICC Probe 849.
ICC probe 849 is now on the QT Nav Points list.
There are three new icons on the player visor HUD while in Crusader.
An icon will appear in the top-left of your screen when you are in Monitored space.
This icon looks like a satellite sending off little signals.
To the right of Monitored Space, there is an icon to indicate when you are in an Armistice Zone.
This icon looks like a bullet with a line through it.
To the right of the Armistice Zone icon, an icon will appear if you are a wanted criminal.
This icon looks like a shooting range target, with a border that will become incrementally more orange with each Criminal level.

Game Systems:

Your efforts repairing Comm Arrays in Crusader have not gone unnoticed by Crusader Industries!
Monitored Space System

“Monitored” space are large areas of the Crusader system that are being actively monitored by Crusader Industries. These areas are centered around any active Comm Arrays in Crusader, as well as Cryo-Astro and Port Olisar.
By disabling the Comm Arrays, you can toggle monitored space off for that area. Likewise you can reactivate “Monitoring” by activating the local Comm Arrays.
Comm Arrays will be active or disabled at-random when an instance is first brought up.
Disabling a Comm Array has consequences, because no-one except a Criminal would ever want to go unnoticed by Crusader Industries.
Players who are not currently considered a “Criminal” will receive missions for any Comm Arrays that need to be reactivated.
Player character kills made in unmonitored space will go unnoticed by local authorities.

Bounty System

In an effort to improve security in the Crusader region while their local staffing is low, Crusader Industries has activated their “Bounty” system and encourages all pilots to hunt down any wanted criminals in their space.
Destroying an empty ship, colliding with a landed ship (in Monitored space), or disabling a Comm Array gives the offending character 1 level of Wanted Criminal.
However, these are not cumulative and will not take your character above 1 Criminal level.
Killing a player character or destroying an occupied ship (in Monitored space) gives 1 Cumulative level of Criminal.
Crusader Security AI will spawn and attack any Criminal (of any wanted level), that enters the area around Cry-Astro Station or Port Olisar.
There are 5 Criminal levels available. At Level 5 point, a global bounty mission is posted to all characters on the server instructing them to hunt down and kill the character.
Players who successfully complete the bounty mission for a Level 5 Criminal will find a Klaus & Werner ATT4 Energy rifle waiting for them in their bedroom on Port Olisar. Courtesy of Crusader Industries.
Each Criminal level adds 30 seconds of “jail time” to your respawn. When a Criminal is killed, they will be locked into their spawn-bedroom for the duration of their penalty time.
Players who die in Crusader with at least 1 level of Wanted Criminal, will respawn in a medium Outlaw loadout.
Those who die with Level 4 will be respawn in a different Outlaw loadout.
When a Level 5 Criminal is killed, they are removed from the server.
This functionality is for the purposes of testing of the system, as consequences within current game systems is limited.
When a Level 5 Criminal is killed, they are removed from the server.
This functionality is for the purposes of testing of the system, as consequences within current game systems is limited.
There are only two ways to reduce your Criminal level.
Waiting 10 minutes without committing a crime will naturally reduce the level by 1.
There is a console in Security Post Kareah that you can “hack”. Each hack you initiate and complete drops your wanted level by 1.
However, each hack takes 1 minutes to complete, and other criminals can interrupt your hack by initiating their own.

Hostility System

Pirates and Crusader Security now recognize potential friends and foes.
Pirates will spawn to protect disabled Comm Arrays from non-Criminals.
Crusader Security will spawn to protect active Comm Arrays from Criminals.
Both will become much more aggressive toward anyone who takes action toward them.
When a character initiates combat with another character, the aggressor is flagged as “hostile” to the defender.
Defenders do not receive a penalty or a Wanted Criminal level for killing a player that initiated combat in Monitored Space.

Party System Revamp

This encompasses a wide range of quality-of-life improvements, updates and fixes to the party system in Star Citizen.

When a party is formed and a member attempts to join an instance for the first time, the matchmaking system will automatically look for a server with the “Best Fit” for the party size.
Once a party member has entered an instance, the elevator UI (Hangar and Main Menu) will show those instances with a party member inside on top. Followed by instances that have contacts.
Matchmaking system now takes into account the number of players in a party when selecting a server.
The Matchmaking will ‘reserve’ slots on the server for the rest of your party for two minutes, to allow them time to select the instance and zone in.
The party leadership will now automatically migrate to another player, if the leader goes offline.
If a party member goes offline, then comes back online, the Party UI is properly restored in the Contacts list (F11).
Players that go offline will remain in the party for 10 minutes, before being timed out of the party.
The party will disband if all party members are offline for 5+ minutes.
Party Leaders can now kick any offline members.

Social System

“Full” instances with contacts in them will now go to the bottom of the list of instances in the elevator screen.
AR view has a new seamless overlay to prevent it from interfering with normal gameplay.
It will still provide the name of characters and items.
AR view is now “On” by default in all zones. You can disable it by pressing “F10”, but it will re-enable on zoning.

Physical EVA

Physical EVA has been re-enabled for 2.2.0, after extensive fixing and tweaks on our end.
Holding down the “Shift” key + a directional key while in EVA will now provide a boost of speed.

Ships:

The Aegis Sabre is now flight-ready and owners of this ship can access it in Arena Commander and Crusader.
The Xi’an Khartu-Al is now available and owners of this fine ship can now view it in the Hangar.
We have been making a number of changes to the movement behavior of manned turrets, as we are aware that they haven’t been behaving in a fluid or intuitive manner.
This is still very much work in-progress.
SCM and Cruise speeds have been re-balanced across the board for all ships.
SCM speeds have been increased for the Retaliator, Gladius, Freelancer, Gladiator, Vanguard Warden, F7A Hornet, F7C Hornet, F7C-S Ghost, F7C-R Tracker, Mustangs (all), Vanduul Glaive, P-52 Merlin, Vanduul Scythe, M50 Interceptor and 350r.
SCM speeds have been decreased for the Aurora (All), Cutlass Black, Avenger (All), F7C-M Super Hornet, 325a, 315p and 300i.
Cruise speeds have been increased for the Aurora LN, Aurora CL, Aurora LX, 325a, 315p, 350r.
Cruise speeds have been decreased for the Constellation Andromeda, Freelancer, Gladiator, Aurora ES, Aurora MR, Cutlass Black, Avenger (All), Vanguard Warden, Hornet (All), Mustang (all), Vanduul Glaive, 300i, P-52 Merlin, Vanduul Scythe, Gladius and M50 Interceptor.

Components

Ship Component Update.
We have begun a large update to our existing Ship component system. This is largely at a back-end level – implementing a new component class system, naming conventions and other needed functionality, as well as retrofitting all existing ships to be compatible. These changes will allow us to implement a greater range of modular internal ship components. Additionally, this allows components to interact with one another in a more direct and less “handwavium” simulation of a ships internal systems, setting the foundation for greater player interaction and future game play mechanics.

These changes should not affect the performance of ships in any significant way at this point compared to 2.1, unless noted otherwise. However it is important to emphasize that this is very much a work-in-progress.
A new component class – Coolers – has been added to the Holotable.
Coolers are used to dissipate the active heat built up from other components.
At this point, they primarily act to help cool weapon systems.
All ships have been retrofitted with generic coolers to provide the same level of “cooldown” time they experienced before.
Two new coolers have been implemented.
The Wen/Cassel Endo and J-Span Cryo-Star, both size 1 class.
These can be mounted on all variants of the following ships: Avenge, Aurora, Mustang, 300 Series, Hornet, Gladiator, Gladius, M50, P-52 Merlin.
The J-Span Cryo-Star cooler will be awarded to all backers who pledged before the $56 million goal.
Decreased heat per shot of the Mantis GT-220, and increased heat pool.
Shield recharge rates on ships have been adjusted to help balance ships following the component revamp.

First Person:

We have made extensive improvements to first-person animations, specifically for FPS. These include:
Added better transitional animations from “Look” to “Aim” poses.
Added improved animations for when a weapon is in a “lowered” state, both while standing and while in crouch.
Fixed an issue where characters would be unable to aim-down-sight during certain “transitional” animations.
Added FPS “cover” animations, for exiting and entering aim-down-sights from cover while holding a weapon.

Technical:

We have implemented a new Crash Handler to our game client with 2.2. Now when the game client crashes, a pop-window will appear asking you if you would like to report the crash to us. The handler submission will include game logs from the client and DxDiag information on the system. This will allow us to rapidly gather data on game client crashes that are occurring in our PTU and Live environments, while also vastly simplifying the process for players to report crashes to us.

Re: Star Citizen Release + Patch Notes

Post by Haargon »

Star Citizen Patch 2.3.0 - 26.03.2016

Alpha Patch 2.3.0 has been released on Live, and is now available for players! This patch provides access to our new flyable Khartu-al, the hangar-ready Starfarer (and a corresponding hangar bay it can fit in), as well as two new FPS weapons, new components, updates to FPS animations and EVA, as well as numerous fixes across the game.

Your launcher should should show “2.3.0 – 336649” as the client version. It is strongly recommended that players delete their USER folder for the Live client after patching, particularly if you start encountering any odd character graphical issues or crash on loading. The USER folder can be found (in default installations) at C:\Program Files\Cloud Imperium Games\StarCitizen\Live.

Please review our current list of 2.3.0 Known Issues FAQ, and take full advantage of our Issue Council area of the Community site to report any bugs you encounter, as well as contribute to other players submissions.

New Features
Star Systems:

The Revel & York Hangar has a new extra-large hangar bay attached to its left outer hangar bay.
The hangar bay does not appear on the Hangar Management on the website.
Instead, if you have a Starfarer on your account and the Revel & York hangar configured as your active hangar, it will auto-load the extra-large hangar and add the Starfarer.
We have added additional Security AI around Port Olisar, that will attack any players that have a wanted level.
Yela salvage sites in Crusader are now lit by green flares.

Ships:

The Starfarer Base is now Hangar-ready!
This ship can be viewed only in the Revel & York Hangar, via its new extra-large hangar bay.
If you have a Starfarer on your account, you will only need to activate the Revel & York hangar on the website and then load into it in-game.
The Khartu-al is now flight-ready!

Component Update

We have continued our large update to our existing Ship component system. This is largely at a back-end level – implementing a new component class system, naming conventions and other needed functionality, as well as retrofitting all existing ships to be compatible. These changes will allow us to implement a greater range of modular internal ship components. Additionally, this allows components to interact with one another in a more direct and less “handwavium” simulation of a ships internal systems, setting the foundation for greater player interaction and future game play mechanics.

We have a new component class – Power Plants – have been added to the Holotable.
Power Plants (as you expect) power the systems of the ship.
All ships have been retrofitted with generic power plants to provide the same level of “power” they possessed before.
We have added 2 Power Plants, the AEGIS Regulus and Amon & Reese OverDrive
These can be mounted on all variants of the following ships: Avenge, Aurora, Mustang, 300 Series, Hornet, Gladiator, Gladius, M50, P-52 Merlin

First Person:

We have added the Arrowhead Sniper Rifle to Crusader.
The reward for killing a Level 5 Wanted Criminal is now the Arrowhead sniper rifle.

Both new weapons can be found as random salvage finds in the Yela Asteroid field.
The Klaus & Werner ATT4 energy rifle (previously awarded for killing a Level 5 Wanted Criminal) is now available on Kareah.

Fixed issue where the audio of players footsteps and other movement sound FX is very very quiet to other clients.
Fixed an issue where looking up while running forward would cause the character neck to contort unnaturally.
Fixed an issue where weapons could be “lowered” while prone, causing odd animation errors.
