Post On Test
Several crash fixes
Some changes to the drone oriented augmenters
A fix to a prevention-of-firing-while-overloaded problem
nerf to JiJi
maybe some other stuff

Server patch tomorrow night unless someone finds something wrong on test -- please take a look =)

I look forward to getting home from the office to try the changes out on Test.

Jeff, have you been reading the DM suggestions centered on some form of stasis generator for drones... something to try and make the risk associated with being a DMer the same as the risk associated to being any other skill... ie. 100 mil for GG20 each time you die or a slave dies... as opposed to the potentially 'bank balance breaking' costs of drones everytime one dies?

Please let us know your thoughts.

I am personally opposed to any idea of drone GG. I would rather just see a lessening of the costs of drones until they only cost about what a GG would cost. Of course, to talk about drones that cost 2 bil each when they are just random drops is a little misleading. I would only be concerned about drones that cost actual credit costs of anything over 50 mil. Other than that, I think drones should mainly either be rare drops, cheaply bought with credits, or take a lot off commods to build, which is essentially free, but takes time.

A GG20 costs what, 100m? A lipo Drone cost what, 80m? When you die as a DM, your drones die in 80% of the cases, too. You'd have to lower the price of the higher tech drones to like 10mil each to make them as cheap as GG
