    Greetings, Pilots!

    We know that we post a lot of announcements about features and events, but that you cannot always see what we are doing to improve the game. These monthly patch notes are intended as a way to keep you better informed.

    In March we implemented the following events, improvements and bug-fixes:

    Events

    · Hungarian Revolution of 1848 (HU servers only)This event took place on all Hungarian servers on March 15, 2014. Several additional event games were also offered as special bonus boxes on the maps. In addition, drones did not take damage.​

    Improvements

    · Website

    · Clan page: Players are only able to leave a clan if they are near their company’s headquarters. If two players of the same faction are in a fight during a clan war, it is no longer possible for negative honor to occur due to leaving the clan during the fight.​

    · Players who have been banned due to bot usage are now also removed from their clan.​

    · Tech Factory: Players now have to confirm if they want to delete a tech.​

    · Game Client

    · Pirate Maps: The de-cloaking zone on pirate maps does not cause shield damage anymore. This prevents players from farming Palladium while idling.​

    Bug-fixes

    · Website

    · Achievements: Completed achievements are no longer displayed as being in progress.​

    · Achievements: The title P.E.T. animal trainer is now shown on the space map once selected and saved.​

    · Auction:​

    · A captcha has to be completed for a player to make multiple consecutive bids.​

    · A scroll bar is now available for all items in the auction history.​

    · Bid and Buy Now buttons got a tooltip to explain their function.​

    · Broken time indicator of weekly auctions has been fixed to show the correct countdown.​

    · The price for the Iris drone is now correct if you buy it via the instant buy function in the auction house.​

    · Credit bids on auction offers are now only deducted once.​

    · Clan Search: The function to search for a clan is once again working as intended.​

    · Ranking: Admin flagged accounts are no longer visible in the “Top Experience Home” section.​



    · Game Client

    · Crazy Bot: All variants of this bot now always give rewards when destroyed.​

    · Game Entry: Players using the P.E.T.’s Kamikaze detonator are no longer able to kill players who are still under training protection.​

    · Scoremageddon: The Scoremageddon hearts no longer disappear if you have been shot with a WIZ rocket.​

    · Seprom exploit: Players can no longer exploit Seprom from cargo boxes if they have the Lab CPU 3 equipped and activated.​

    We also carried out a number of additional bug fixes, text corrections and other improvements.
