* More improvements to the music system. I think it's working pretty well now.

* Improvements to the random gals appearances in c2

* Hitting the key to tractor if you don't have anything targeted will now try to tractor nearby debris if it's in range

* Latest ship and UI contributions by players

* Other misc small fixes and improvements

Potential issue: I'm fighting a Seer/Sniper, and I tap the tractor key a little too late.

Make this optional?

Seems to me like if you're doing serious PvP, then there won't be that much debris just sitting by.

Also, I haven't tested it, but I'm pretty sure that if you have someone targeted but can't currently see them, the server considers you to have a target, so won't tractor debris.

What happens if someone tosses some fuel (as a seer) or gets a teamie to blow some roids, would that be considered a tactic during pvp? Or as exploiting a feature? I'd like to know before getting banned for it when C2 comes out :p

What happens if the debris is within the 10second "owner only can scoop" timer?

You'd be surprised. Roids are common in some galaxies, as a Gunner I'm spamming ACAL shots around. Further more if an SD attacks me, I might toss my Large APs to open a crate of Cheetahs, or the other way round if say an Engineer or FC attacks me.

Yeah, but unless your target explodes, you still have a target according to the server, so hitting tractor won't tractor debris. Losing sight of someone will not allow you to tractor debris without targeting it specifically.
