Tribble (server)/Release notes/20110720

General

 * Starfleet Academy is now available as a social map!
 * Players can enter Starfleet Academy from the Sol System map
 * This map is available for use in Foundry missions
 * Crafting Updates
 * All Very Rare crafting recipes now require only two unique particle traces (down from 3 for Mk9-11, up 1 for Mk2).
 * The Unique Particle (UP) Traces needed for Very Rare items has been balanced across the available recipes so that most UPs have a regular recipe in which they are used based on the type of item.
 * This fixes an issue where some UPs were in far more demand than others (e.g. Vertions vs. Duderons and Dekyons).
 * Based on additional player feedback, we are also now offering the ability to purchase schematics at the Basic Crafting Supply Vendors on Memory Alpha and Qo'noS for 10,000 EC each.
 * Players may still craft schematics with Tier 1 anomalies, but the ability to purchase schematics will negate the need for players to return to low level sectors in order to locate Tier 1 anomalies for the sole purpose of making schematics.
 * Most schematics now have an EC value of 100.
 * Resolved an issue that caused the "ShooterPrimary" bind to not get set correctly when using offset key binds.
 * The C-Store Bat’leth is now using the appropriate weapon art
 * Stability Updates

Systems

 * Borg ranged lieutenants will use their heavy knockdown forced plasma bolt less often so groups containing those enemies are slightly less dangerous.
