POTBS - Release Notes for build 1.3.30.0 : FPS / MMORPG / RTS Discussion

We’re trying to fix a few last bugs before pushing 1.3 to Live.

Known Issues:

* There remain textures that flicker throughout the world.
* When you’re a member of a group and you win a PvP battle, loot goes into the group loot box even if your groupmates aren’t in the battle.
* If you get disconnected during Boarding combat, the results are not what you’d hope or expect. We’re working to resolve this ASAP.

Differences between 1.3.28.0 and 1.3.30.0 include but aren’t limited to:

Economy:

* The Pirate Pommern writ somehow got lost in the shuffle between commendation missions and the commendation exchange shop. Now it is back. The whole pipeline to produce a Pirate Hercules Frigate works, including writs.

Open Sea:

* Pirate fleets were accidentally set to be aggressive on the open sea. Fixed that.

PvP / Port Contention:

* Surrender: Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented the winner from receiving surrendered loot.
* Added chat window notifications when a port enters or exits Martial Law state.
* Fixed a bug that caused the Reinforcement Timer on the Conquest Status tab on the Local Map to start counting negative numbers after reaching zero.

Art / Sound:

* Campeche: Fixed some LOD problems (buildings coming and going as you moved the camera around).
* Pointe-a-Pitre: Fixed some texture problems throughout the town.
* Port St. Joe: Fixed a texture problem on the signpost.
