I ninja'd in a short update today. There is now a Drones Module in template control. It gives you an overview of what active drones you have out and their times remaining on jobs. You can collect directly from the module but cancelling requires you to click the job image to go to the Rent-A-Drone page and manually cancel the job.

The "Hide Learned Recipes" checkbox has been added to shops that sell recipes. If it doesn't work at first, try Ctrl + F5 since your cache might be using old javascript.

Finally, I changed all "Metal" items in the game into "Steel Ingot" items.

Knew I was forgetting some things.

1) Q15 and Havoc Launcher recipes are usable now, they are level 8.

2) Defense Bots, since they are now used in Scout/Pbot/DDrone/RDrones recipes, have had their drop rate multiplied by 3.

3) Droid Drone and Recon Drones stats have changed to:

Droid Drone
14 acc, 14 dodge, 40 g skill, 60 m skill, -20 p skill

Recon Drones
19 acc, 65 g skill, 40 p skill

4) Sellbacks on upgrades (Poison Tip, Gyro Balance, Armor Piercing) have been reduced to 200c since they are now craftable.

5) I didn't go in depth on any of the new crafting recipes, but I think it's worth pointing out the recipes that give you usable items.

There is now a Medical Crate recipe. Medical Crates can be used from your inventory and work the same way as the hospital med crates.

There is also a Poisoned Throwing Blades recipe. This lets you create a stronger version of Throwing Blades. Typing "/throw player" in the wasteland will use the first throwable type item in your inventory.

This update has a lot of stuff, so hopefully I cover everything in these patch notes.

Additions:

1) Hive Outskirts, new sector. It has Crafter's Guild, for all your crafting related needs, and will have The Underground available soon. The Underground is an idea Ste thought up that will only be accessible by players who get in the weekly top tens. That's coming soon, though.

2) Drone Rentals system. You can access this page from the Crafter's Guild. Send drones out on either Scavenging or Mining jobs. After the duration is complete your drone will return to you with items. This is mostly to get crafting related items for the new recipes, though there are some rarer items in the later jobs like Nuggets in mining and craftable Crystals in scavenging.

3) Blueprint Shop. Accessible through Crafter's Guild. It has some weekly timed recipes, mostly equipment.

4) Tool and Material Shop. Accessible through Crafter's Guild. You can buy crafting related tools here for the new recipes.

5) Black Market Quest line. Talking to the Drug Dealers hunting group will start a new quest. It requires a bit of reading to get through. If you want a practice attempt at the quest you can run it on the dev server first.

6) Added tooltips to Recipe items in shops and more in depth tool tips when you hover over recipes in the shadow forge.

Bug Fix:

1) Paint Remover can now be used on the extra av weapons that Neon Paint is available on.

If anyone has feedback you can PM me or start a Main Forum thread. I realize inventory space is a problem with the drone rental system, so I will look into possible ways to deal with that.

A small update went live today. Here are the patch notes:

Additions:

1) Neon Paint added to the plat store. It is available for use on all current avatar weapons as well as the SWAT Shield and 3 Section Staff.

Bug Fixes:

1) Recipes with Optional Items will now have the correct number of slots listed.

2) Working jobs during a 2x event would grant you pay of the level above your current, unless you had the job maxed out. This has been fixed.

3) 100 daily tokens were being handed out to players without any card, this has been reduced back to 50.

4) If a player had above 50 messages in their inbox because of the upgraded inbox plat item, they could not be invited to clans as it would say their inbox is full. This has been fixed.

Thanks,
Bongo.
