Missions:

Terradome Updates:
- DS9 Ground - Adjusted the final Undine spaws (the third wave) the final encounters no longer have Captain, or Commander Rank Unidine in them so they should be much easier to kill.
- Undine Base - Took out 30% of the trash mob Undine you fight on the way down to the boss chamber.
- Boss Room:
  - Mission will now automatically complete the Save Sulu/Save Jevek part. The real Sulu/Jevek will now just watch the fight. There is still a battle going on with fake Sulus/Jeveks but the real one is out of harms way. Kill the fake ones until the Commader shows up, boss fight now insues.
  - Boss Adds have been cut by 50%, and they no longer respawn immediatley after you kill one. They will respawn after they die and 90 seconds has passed.
  - Boss Room reset is now working again. If you die (and choose to respawn) you will respawn outside of the room and have to wait until everyone fighting the boss has died. You can avoid this by getting someone in the room to rez you.
  - If the whole team dies and respawns, the Boss Fight will now reset, you no longer have to completely leave the map to restart the Boss fight.
Mission progression will no longer break if the player minimizes the dialog window upon entering the mess hall of the Rapier, in the mission "Rapier."
