We'll be releasing information on 1.2 ship tuning relatively soon, probably within the next couple weeks.

1 in thread Skirmish system ETA? [Ask an FLS Developer!]
The article probably misunderstood Jess. We would be doing work on it a few weeks after launch, as opposed to being done with it a few weeks after launch.

1 in thread NPC to Avatar Clothing [General PotBS Discussion]
OK let's rope this back in and stay focused. We really wanted to know what NPC clothing is out there that you want to see on PC's. Let's not attack each other, there is no right or wrong answer.

1 in thread System Reset [Ask an FLS Developer!]
To be clear: when one faction wins a server victory the only things that reset are which nation controls which port, and the contention point totals. That will not change for existing servers.

On a whole, I think the idea of a complete server reset is interesting, but would require a significant amount of rethinking of some of our game systems. It's really something that, if you want to do it, should be designed into the game from the start.

I'm a never say never kind of guy, so possibly we could do this with a new special rules set server at some time in the indefinite future, but it's certainly not something that is going to happen to existing servers.

It's funny the sword out animations are pretty much the exact same as the non sword, just a little faster.

Justinian has updated our Support Article #36 for diagnosing network problems. Give it a read and consider trying the WinStun or Wireshark tests.

1 in thread Island Spawns [Ask an FLS Developer!]
It's fixed in v1.2, which is coming very soon. We had to redo the entire ad hoc spawning system and that was a major change, but the work is done and coming soon.

Was it just a couple of improved frames?
It's a completely different run.
