Patch Notes For November 2019 Release

Released On Tuesday, November 12th 2019

Features & Changes

Balancing:

  • Micro Jump Field Generator reworked to move a maximum of 25 capsuleer ships. All fighters, drones, probes and bombs will always be moved
  • Bosonic Field Generator signature resolution increased to 10,000 (was 2000)
  • Dromi I and Standup Dromi I web amount reduced to 10% (was 15%)
  • Dromi II and Standup Dromi II web amount reduced to 15% (was 20%)
  • Ansiblex Jump Gate and Tenebrex Cyno Jammer must now be anchored at least 500km from other Upwell Structures

Localization:

  • Korean language localization deployed
  • Localization of the New Eden Store for supported languages

Miscellaneous:

  • The minimum increment for placing bounties on individual characters has been increased from 100,000 ISK to 1 million ISK

Skills:

  • The skill requirements for Tech 1 light combat drones have been reduced to make them more quickly accessible to new capsuleers:
    • The prerequisite to train the Light Drone Operation skill has been reduced from Drones 3 to Drones 1
    • The level of the Drones skill required to use Tech 1 light combat drones has been reduced from 3 to 1
    • The level of the Drones skill required to use faction and integrated light combat drones has been reduced from 3 to 2

User Interface:

  • Updated the default window and sizes for new users and added a new low and medium resolutions layout so that windows are an appropriate size regardless of your starting resolution. These updated and new layouts are designed to fix some long standing issues with the previous window layouts and sizes:
    • Expanded the Overview’s width to avoid columns being obscured and significantly increased its length to allow more entries to be shown by default
    • Expanded and realigned the Selected Item Window so all buttons are shown in large mode by default for most items, and items with a large amount of buttons or a long title no longer cause the window to expand in size and move down the overview when attached
    • Moved the Drone Window and the Target List anchor to accomodate the newly expanded Overview and Selected Item Window
    • Expanded the Chat Window so that you can see many more messages by default
  • Added the ‘One Way Move’ warning prompt when moving items to a corporation owned container

New Player Experience:

  • The tutorial now teaches players about ISK and the wallet
  • The tutorial now teaches players how to loot
  • New Caldari pilots are now rewarded with blasters instead of railguns during the tutorial
  • Several text improvements to Aura’s dialogue
  • Tutorial NPCs now always drop Metal Scraps
