TRIBBLE Maintenance and Release Notes - April 18, 2013

zer0niusrexzer0niusrex Member Posts: 0 Arc User
We will be bringing the Tribble server down for maintenance to apply a new update.
ST.30.20130416a.5

General:
  • Completing the full Tour the Galaxy challenge now rewards the "Well Travelled" trait as a free bonus trait.
    • This trait grants your captain a permanent reduction in Transwarp cooldown.
  • Updated Bringing Down the House:
    • Added interact FX to the door to the Ketha Lowlands.
    • Added an interact in the Qo'noS System to take you to Ketha Lowlands if you have this mission.
    • Updated the second part of this mission to replace the single large waypoint in which to find the assassin with four smaller waypoints.
  • The character selection screen has been updated.
    • Your ship's name features more prominently.
    • Your bridge officers are striking poses.

Systems:
  • Updated Emission-Seeking Torpedoes:
    • All Emission-Seeking Torpedoes now explode with the appropriate FX, instead of all using a Plasma Torpedo explosion.
    • Damage dealt by all versions of Emission-Seeking Torpedoes are now approximately equivalent to a High-Yield torpedo or Salvo of the same type.
      • As a result of this change, Emission-Seeking Plasma Torpedoes are now targetable for balance reasons.
    • The Combat Log will no longer report "an unknown officer deals damage to Emission-Seeking Torpedo..." when it detonates.
    • All applicable descriptions have been updated to reflect this functionality.
  • To'Duj Fighter Devices no longer incorrectly grant their owners Battle Cloak.
    • It was fun while it lasted though, right?

Known Issues:
  • The Klingon Mission Journal is currently being re-worked and some missions may not yet be available to existing Klingons.
  • Trait respec is not functional.
    • It will take your respec token, but you will be unable to commit new traits.
  • Neither Klingons nor Romulans are available for new characters.
    • A small number of participants can now create Romulans as part of a closed beta.
  • The C-store is disabled.
  • Players on Wine will need to use a workaround in order to play.
  • Mind Games: Romulans who choose KDF as their allies will not be able to turn in this mission.
  • Sela doesn't have a cape.
    • She was taking advice from Edna.

    Does this address the "shuttle bug" or is it still in effect and I am going to see my shuttle listed instead of my primary ship. Also, cool on the boff poses. Can't wait to see that.

    • Neither Klingons nor Romulans are available for new characters.

    Any ETA on when this will be fixed. :P

    And the multicore rendering bug with XP Media Center is still not listed as known.

    The "workaround" link doesn't work.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    About how much of a reduction to Transwarp cooldown will the "Well Traveled" trait give?

    It gives 20% and does not count against your Trait limit. You don't need to choose it, it is automatically picked when you meet the requirements.

    Nice!

    Any way those characters who have done it in the past will automatically get this trait?

    It's now fixed it would seem.


    As for the poses, they're nice, but sometimes awkward, when a crouching officer in the background has its face right in the foreground's officer's bottom...

    Last I tried, even the Federation wasn't working right. Had a 50 character there, logged him in to fix him to the new system, and couldn't create any other character despite having the character slot available. Came up just showing him, the three faction tabs on the side, and no races or anything to choose from.

    That is good to hear. well, the first part (the bug fix). not sure about the other part, Sounds like my captain might need to hold a "harassment and sensitivity training" meeting with the senior staff. And this is suppose to be the 25th Century. Tsk tsk. :P

    So you now get your specie trait AND 9 traits or do you get your species trait AND 8 traits. It would seem off if you got 10 passive traits vs aliens getting 9.

      Could you clarify, is this just for completing one lap?

      Is it permanent or temporary?

      And will TtG increased in frequency since it's so rare these days?

      TO fix this rename your shuttle to something that is farther down the alphabet than your main ship. So if shuttle is named Apollo, and main ship is Odyssey then the shuttle will appear first in everything. Rename shuttle to something below O like xApollo and thats how you fix it!

      I think they just need to be spread out more. Among other things, my leftmost officer is entirely invisible behind the second-from-the-left (the Reman science officer)'s cape.

      Also, the Reman BO's face is missing entirely, but we can't blame him for that.

      That's neither the issue we're talking about nor a fix for it. It's a completely different problem that still persists on Holodeck, but seems to be fixed on Tribble now.

      And with a targetable PSW Plasma Torpedo, Plasma is yet again nerfed into an underwhelmin underdog above the Energy gods that are Phaser/Disruptor/Polaron.

      Yeah, Since my main ship is "Gosroth" and my shuttle is "Hyperion". I am thinking we aren't talking about the same thing as the "Fix"

      About the Emission-Seeking Torpedo changes, will it still deploy like normal? I mean very slow to react and slow traveling?

      What error? Have you tried restarting your computer? Have you looked for any zombie processes in the Task Manager?

      After you quit out of the game entirely, when you look at the processes in task manager, do you see any gameclient.exe instances still running? How about anything called cryptic-joystick or something similar?

      Have you looked in your Event Viewer to see if there are any errors or warnings for your hard drive or its controller?
