Release notes/20100218

General

 * Power trays were acting strangely and not remembering what you had placed in your first slot. Code has gone in to address this and should now remember what power you place there.
 * Work towards improving game performance when the shard is at peak capacity.
 * Fleet Bank Updates - Options are now grayed out and disabled for players who don't have permission to change them. The Limit field is now filled with the current limits set. And restrictions should now be working properly. They were not updating until you switch tabs and then back. Fixed a bug where players could circumvent limits that were set.
 * There were many areas where if you logged out, you would not log in to the right location. We've gone through the maps and hopefully addressed these so that you always log back in on the last safe static map you were on.

Missions

 * Daily missions now start their cooldown from the time the mission was taken instead of from when the mission was turned in.
 * Rank up missions complete now if you get your free ship at any time, not just once you have spoken to the ship vendor. This was causing an issue with some characters getting stuck if they talked to the ship vendor contact with odd dialog choices.

 * The crate on the Iconian ground map is no longer giving out too many items.
 * Repeatable Star Cluster missions are now set so that they are only offered when you are neary the cluster if you are above the mission level.
 * Moved anomalies on Danteri V and Beytan V that were impossible to scan.
 * : Den of Thieves: Commander Teleb was becoming unkillable if hit with an exploit. Teleb is now smarter and will hopefully no longer let himself get put in this situation.

 * In the - all of the crates can now be interacted with.
