Salvaged technology (nearly) gone from admirality?

Hi there,

did anybody else notice, that since last thursdays update there is far less salvaged tech rewarded by admirality missions? Until the patch I had it in let's say every 10th mission and since then I (was about to write none) got one over all my chars. So maybe now it's one in 200 missions (I have not changed my admirality missions pattern(on purpose) since the patch).
Is this intended? :-)

Also could you please get the ships to perform as they should or correct the writings?

At least the german version contains several errors. All shuttles I own(around a dozen), besides the new mirror Danube, say that they double "event crit rating". But as I already figured out most do something else, far better.

Two requests of which one of them is on topic:
1. Could you make shuttles not count as ship. Meaning that when a ship has "alone bonus" shuttles won't inflict. I think that yould only be consistent as they don't give a bonus which other ships are giving for "every ship".
2. Fix doffing. I'm running out on the common materials...

    Salvaged tech is randomly awarded and is very hard to get. Nothing is guaranteed to give it. You probably got lucky earlier.

    Yeah, there are several text errors, and the phrasing is inconsistent on some other things. In this case, the text on the Nachruestung should probably be +8 instead of +10. The Schlactkreuzer has a similar ability but shows the right number.

    Also.... the abbreviation used for the maint time is wrapping around and overlapping the ability text. This is probably because the english version uses a single letter abbreviation and the German text doesn't fit the same box. (Why do Germans use TRIBBLE. anyways? Stunden isn't a very long word.)

    A similar error exists for the [ i ] symbol next to the crit chance text.

    Some shuttles have really cool powers, and some(the EC shuttles) actually do have a crappy power that doubles event bonus. Some(such as Delta flyer) get a +10 to all stats when used with ships(not shuttles). The vet shuttles(and maybe others) give a 5x bonus to crit from stats. This is written in the English text and not a bug.

    At any rate this goes in the bug reports forum.....

    Hmm my EC shuttles give me -25% maintenance/ship. The X2 from events if from the T1 ship for me.
    I am from Belgium and english isn't my main language, sorry if I make mistakes.

    I had 2 Salvaged tech drop today, random number generator is random.

    ok then. As pretty much a hardcore doffer I know that RNG can be a bi***. As I did probably more than 100 Admirality mission yesterday I was actively looking for the event that rewards it(on a chance). Did not see it. Will have a look at the char again that got it.

    I know that the lower part of my post should be in the Bug-section. But I was lazy and tired. After all it was past 2 AM here.

    I'm glad I don't use the localized version of STO. Last I checked there are a myriad of text errors and questionable translations used, the fact that they even break text frames is just another point on the list. Whenever I look at the German version in videos or screenshots I literally don't know what a good portion of the terms used is supposed to mean, and I'm a German native. But that might be because the German dubbed Star Trek shows also never were consistent in their use of "Treknology" terms, which is kinda annoying in terms of Treknobabble or sometimes they even mixed up ranks and faction related terms...​​
