TRIBBLE Maintenance and Release Notes - January 27, 2014

edited January 2014 in Tribble - Announcements and Release Notes
We will be bringing down the Tribble server for maintenance to apply a new update: ST.36.20140123a.5

General:
  • Resolved a series of bugs with the Omega Plasma Torpedo Launcher so it now obeys correct cooldown limitations:
    • It has 5 charges with no cooldown (other than the Torpedo category cooldown timer of 2 seconds)
    • Each charge requires 6 seconds to recharge.
      • This is how the item was always intended to perform.
  • Resolved an issue where some recharge-reducing powers still appeared to modify the recharge of Tier 5 reputation abilities, even though they did not modify them
  • Deflector Officers that say they have a chance of reducing cooldowns on all Deflector abilities now can properly affect the cooldowns of Tachyon Beam and Energy Siphon.
  • Resolved an issue with the Mogh that caused the fleet version to have no windows on its right stanchion after editting it in the tailor
  • Resolved an issue which was not allowing items to be unequipped unless dragged and dropped back into the inventory.
  • Ship swapping:
    • Players can now swap between a large craft and a small craft.
  • Loadouts
    • It is no longer possible to give two different loadouts the same name.
    • The loadout naming and renaming popup window now has better messaging for errors.
    • Loadouts can now be changed on ground maps.
  • Hourly events:
    • Hourly events have been removed.
    • These will be replaced by weekend events.

Known Issues:
  • Ship swapping and loadouts are not in their final phase.
    • Some known issues include:
      • Cooldown for both ship switching and loadout switching do not have timers.
      • It?s not easy to tell when a loadout has been changed.
      • Ship name cannot be renamed while in space.
  • Some KDF captains cannot switch to all of their costume slots.

    2 Questions:

    #1 - Isn't the torpedo universal cool down 1.5 seconds? (0.5 for weapon launch and 1 for torp cooldown)

    #2 - If the charges take 6 seconds to reload, does that mean the torpedo is supposed to fire constantly? Or does the recharge begin after launching the 5th torpedo.

    It was originally 6 seconds for each charge to reload and it was always recharging when we had less than 5 charges.

    when can we expect the fix for KDF captains that cannot use costume slots THAT WE PAID FOR. This has been an issue for over a month. I would think you should have either fixed it or given some type of compensation because you have our money!

    Any fix for the new ship loadout dumping items into inventory upon switching?

    Unless swapping a loadout, swapping ships, putting the dumped items onto other ship, and then finally swapping back to the original ship... Is by design?

    As one of those captains, I can't wait for you guys to squash this bug. I'm just curious about how it came about in the first place? Such a random thing to pop up.

    I love my honorguard stuff but it does get a bit old after 3 months haha.

    Oh damn... now I have to spend a couple of hours with my spreadsheets working out the optimum way to retrain my 53 boffs now that a 3rd of my science builds are obsolete... then I have to spend another hour retraining...

    Actually I couldn't be more pleased. I've been throwing requests to get this fixed, and complaints about it not being fixed Into a lot of posts on a lot of topics for a long time now. Not to mention re-testing it every few months and filing the occasional bug report.

    I had genuinely given up hope that it would be fixed. So I would like to thank which ever kind dev is responsible for this fix. You sir or madam are a super star. Thank you very much indeed.

    I get paid this Friday, I think I am going to buy a chunk of zen out of appreciation.

    Why the hell did you guys change hourly events?
  • doffingcomradedoffingcomrade Member Posts: 0 Arc User
    edited January 2014
    Because apparently, some hourly events weren't being played enough, while others were regularly attended. Therefore, the unpopular hourly events are being converted into weekend events so that people will have the time to properly appreciate them, while the popular ones are being limited to dailies so that people cannot overuse them.

    Enjoy Metaphasic Weekend, followed by Crafting Weekend, and then Vault Shuttle Weekend. With them as weekend-long events, you're certain not to miss them!

    So when do the KDF get to access DV again? It can't be particularly difficult to fix, they already had that ability.. no reinventing the wheel.

    Never, DV is working as intended, duh. It's a KDF thing. Why would they ever want to change it back? That would invalidate the entire point of nerfing it in the first place.

    Because they want to make money off selling cooldown reductions and Rep/Fleet mark boosts from lock boxes.

    Hey ;)

    Finally I?ve patched again to test the new quick-equip-system.

    It is working fine at all but one question left:

    I put my secondary equipment into my bank. When I switch the loadout on my ship these items are in my inventory again....

    Will it be possible in the future to swap things out of the bank (instead of inventory)?
    ......................................

    ...or:

    will the (primary) items use the slots in the inventory where the secondary items were placed?
