Systems

 * Reputation System updated:
 * Removed all Reputation XP gains from Direct Gear projects, Store Unlock projects, Costume Unlock projects and Consumable projects.
 * Reduced duration timers on all of the above types of projects from 40 hours to 2 minutes.
 * Updated the Vesta:
 * The Vesta Auxiliary Cannon and Quantum Field Focus Phaser can no longer be fired while your Quantum Focused Shield Bubble is up.
 * This returns it to the behavior it initially had, before a recent patch inadvertently changed it.
 * Activating Batteries or other powers that fix Weapons Offline, like Engineering Team, will no longer allow you to fire weapons while your Quantum Shield is up.
 * Weapon Offline will now disable the Vesta Auxiliary Cannon and Quantum Field Focus Phaser.
 * However, loosing Weapon Power will not disable these weapons.
 * Changed the display name of the Breen Set 3 Piece Bonus to "Breen Energy Syphon", which is a more accurate description of the function of the ability.
 * This is a text change only.
 * Fabrication Engineers will no longer list "Ground" or "Space" in their description since some correspond to different active duty slots than others.
 * The cooldown on the Fleet Tribble and Dilithium Tribble will no longer reset each time you pet them.
 * Trill Bridge Officers can no longer be contributed to the Tellarite Officer Fleet project.
