Imperial High Command has issued a travel warning to notify citizens to avoid travel to the planet if possible. Citizens that cannot avoid travel to Dathomir should be aware that certain locations are now considered restricted areas. Unauthorized travel by citizenry to these restricted areas may result in fines, arrest or both. While rumors have circulated that restricted areas are being used to contain a biological threat, no official report has been confirmed or denied by High Command.

  Publish Notes, September 30th, 2009

  Chapter Gift

  • Jabba's Comlink (Quest Object)

  Highlights

  Star Wars Chronicles Master System
  It's time to open your imagination and start creating stories to share with your friends. With the Star Wars Chronicles system, you now have the ability to create stories from relics you will discover throughout the galaxy. Use the Quest Builder to write your story with the relics you have discovered. Hit "Create Quest" to consume the relics and create a holocron in your inventory. This holocron can be traded to others or activated to begin the adventure. Completing holocrons will reward you with profession experience and tokens. Tokens can be used at the Chronicles reward vendor, S7-U44 Vending Droid, in both Theed and Coronet. The vendors are in the tent behind C-3PO. You can purchase relic booster packs from them as well as other exciting rewards.

  For some friendly assistance, speak with C-3PO and he will explain more about Chronicles.

  • Chronicle Master – all players can advance in the chronicle profession. Open your profession wheel and take a look at what awaits as you advance as a chronicler.
  • Quest Builder – the tool used to create holocrons or drafts.
  • Draft – a saved version of your quest. Creating drafts does not consume relics. You can edit drafts freely. They can be used to create holocrons.
  • Relics – objects that represent memory, experiences, visions. You will discover relics as you play the game.
  • Holocrons – by pressing "create quest" in the Quest Builder, you will consume the relics for your quest and produce a holocron in your inventory. This can be traded or sold on the Bazaar. Players can active them to participate in your quest.
  • Sharing – as you progress in the Chronicle profession, you will gain the ability to allow your Chronicle holocrons to be shared. Sharing will allow multiple players to enjoy your quest from a single holocron.
  • Fragments – relic fragments. They are acquired through loot, as a byproduct of creating a holocron, and by deconstructing relics. Fragments can be combined to create a relic.
  • Tokens – earned for completing other people's quests. When people complete your quests, some tokens will be held in your Chronicles Reserve for you to claim. Use /chroniclerGetReserve to claim your reserve of tokens and Chronicles XP.
  • Relic booster packs – purchased from the Chronicles reward vendors by using tokens, they provide random relics.

  Vendor/Bazaar:

  • Search By Attribute: Selected object types can now be searched by selected attributes in the vendor/bazaar window.

City House Packup

• Overview
• If your character owns a structure inside of a Player City, you are now required to log in with that character at least 1 time in a 90 day period. Both Citizens and Non-Citizens are affected by this rule. Failure to log in over a 90 day period will result in:
• Your structure being flagged for packup (Zoning Violation)
• Your character being removed as a Citizen of that Player City (if you were a Citizen)
• Safe House System
• We understand that there may be circumstances that prevent a character from logging in within a 90 day period due to real life situations; such as Military Deployment. In order to assist these structure owners and their community, Mayors have been given the ability to 'protect' a limited number of their Citizens if needed. The following is a rundown of how the 'Safe House' system works:
• Mayors can access the Safe House options via the City Terminal.
• Mayors can only protect Citizens. Non-Citizens can not be protected.
• A Mayor can protect up to 20% of the required citizens for the City's current level.
• Level 1 City can protect 1 Citizen.
• Level 2 City can protect 2 Citizens.
• Level 3 City can protect 3 Citizens.
• Level 4 City can protect 6 Citizens.
• Level 5 City can protect 8 Citizens.
• Only structures inside of the City Limits can be protected. Structures outside of the city are not affected by this system. Structures inside of a different City will be flagged for packup if they qualify.
• Citizens that are 'protected' will receive the following benefits:
• Protected Citizens will remain Citizens while they are protected.
• Protected Citizens' structures, if inside of the City offering protection, will not be flagged for packup (Zoning Violation).
• Down-Ranking/De-Ranking Cities
• If a Player City down-ranks and exceeds its 'Safe House' maximum limit, the Mayor will have 4 days to correct the discrepancy. After 4 days, any Safe House overages will be automatically corrected by the Safe House system. If a Safe House is removed due to an overage, the Citizen that has logged in most-recently will be removed – this will continue until the Player City Safe House count is within the limits of the system.
• Packup Requirements
• The following criteria must be met at the time of packup in order for the system to successfully pack up a structure that is flagged as a 'Zoning Violation':
• The Player City must be at least 3 weeks old in order for structures to be flagged for inactivity.
• The owner must be offline for 90+ days.
• The structure must be inside of a Player City at the time of packup.
• The structure can not be protected by the Mayor at the time of packup.
• Note: This system is separate from the original House Packup System. There are no rewards for packing up houses under the City House Packup System.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed abilities that determine action costs based on percentage, rather than flat amounts, not taking the general action cost reduction modifier into account when charging action. This affects the following abilities:
• Medic:
• Bacta Corruption
• Blood Cleansers
• Cure Affliction
• Electrolyte Drain
• Rheumatic Calamity
• Revive Player
• Area Revive
• Resuscitate Player
• PVP Area Revive

• Heal Beast (Mark 3)

• Beast Encoder: Fixed an issue that could cause a beast encoder on a POB ship to stop working.
• NEW: A Beast Encoder in your structure or POB ship will always offer the option to reclaim any pets stored within it even when the device might otherwise be inactive or not working.
• NEW: In the event that a beast encoder stops working for whatever reason, you will have the option to reboot the device in an attempt to re-activate it. Rebooting the device will not harm any beasts stored within it.
• Fixed an issue that caused various spawners stop spawning mobs.
• Various 'instant respawn' locations have been given a delay before they will respawn mobs.
• Vendors in a structure that is re-deeded or destroyed will now move to their owners Datapad.

Player Structure

If the item is subsequently stacked (either manually through the item's radial menu, or automatically by moving the item around), the item will lose its unique id, and the item subsequently pulled from the stack will be a different item with a different id, and will not be restored with the /restoreDecorationLayout command.

• Elegant Furniture Lines now start with the word 'Elegant.'

Player Structures

• To help with moving in to a new structure, if you are currently at or below the lot limit, you will be allowed to place a new player house even if doing so would exceed the lot limit. To be precise, this exceeding the lot limit is only allowed when placing a new player house (factory, harvester, generator, guild hall, merchant tent, cantina, medical center, theater, diner, barn, etc. are not included). To coerce you back to lot limit compliance, the following will occur when you place a new player house that causes you to exceed the lot limit. A message (in large red text) will be permanently displayed on your client warning you that you are in violation of the lot limit. You will be spammed (every 5 minutes during the first 24 hours, and every minute thereafter) with a warning message that you are in violation of the lot limit. It may take up to 1 minute after the violation for the large red text and the spamming to begin. You will not be able to drop any item into (or move around items within) any other factory or structure (even those owned by someone else that you are admin of) except for the structure that caused you to exceed the lot limit. You will still be able to drop items into other containers (inventory, equipped backpack, bank, trade with another character, storage droid, vendor, bazaar, POB ships, etc). You will not be able to edit the admin list of the structure that caused you to exceed the lot limit.
• To help with moving in to a new structure, the following new commands have been added:
• /pickupAllRoomItemsIntoInventory (/pickupAll or /pickupA for short) command has been added that will attempt to pick up all items in the room of the structure or POB ship in which you are currently standing into all available inventory space. Only available inventory space will be used. Available space in equipped backpack will not be used. Any item in the room that you would normally be able to manually pick up from where you are currently standing in the room should be picked up by this command. If you wish to pick up more items than available inventory space, you can specify the "overload" option with the command by typing "/pickupAllRoomItemsIntoInventory -overload" which will pick up additional items and overload your inventory, but not so overloaded as to prevent you from moving.
• /dropAllInventoryItemsIntoRoom (/dropAll or /dropA for short) command has been added that will attempt to drop all items in your inventory into the room of the structure or POB ship in which you are currently standing, up to the item limit of the structure or POB ship. Any item in your inventory that you would normally be able to manually drop into the room should be dropped by this command.
• /saveDecorationLayout and /restoreDecorationLayout have been added to save and restore decoration layout of a structure or POB ship. You are still responsible for actually moving the items into (and dropping them into a pile in any room of) the structure or POB ship where you intend to run the /restoreDecorationLayout command. These commands are also useful to "undo" a decoration change that you don't like, like if your structure decorating "helper" (aka cat) jumps on the keyboard and ruins your decoration masterpiece. Or they can be used to save multiple decorative layouts of the same structure or POB ship, allowing you to quickly switch between decorations. Run these commands and follow the on screen instructions. You can get the name of the room that you are currently in from the "UI Debug Print" window (Shift+Ctrl+G). Saved decoration layouts are not transferred with CTS. Note that these operations save and restore an item's position and orientation by tracking the item's unique id. As such, it will only restore the particular item (NOT a similar item) that was saved. The item to be restored must be placed directly in a room (any room) of the structure or POB ship where the /restoreDecorationLayout command is run. For example, it cannot be in your inventory or inside a container in the structure or POB ship.
