===== Powerplay Update 1.3.06 - incoming =====

**Hi all,**

Powerplay update 1.3.06 is coming shortly, the servers will go down at 10.30 BST and will be down for up to 30 minutes.

**Client change log:**
  * Prevent crash if we lose network connection while dying
  * When a client requests contact with an as-yet-unseen different client, don't crash
  * OSX: Fix crash in stellar forge
  * OSX: Fix crash in supercruise
  * OSX: Fix crash loading nebula textures
  * Fix monotonic timer crash
  * Fix crash in control bindings activity
  * OSX: Fix input memory leaks
  * Crash fix for a rarely reported issue ship being docked to a station that is not in a state to provide interfaces
  * Fix prospector drone crash
  * Promote people when they complete a rank up mission
  * Fixes for malformed mission text strings, including minor faction symbols missing hashes
  * Tweaks and cleaning up of salvage and smuggle delivery missions
  * Fix having 0 shields after an ungraceful exit
  * Fix to enable all wake scanners to work in super cruise
  * Don't allow ships to score the last hit (or kill-assist) on themselves
  * Fixed status labels/icons in expansion and control screens not matching what's going on in the graph
  * Add skill for major factions in modify reputation detail
  * Added language check when reading the cached powers list
  * Fix faction consequence generators for donation missions
  * OSX: Fix for pitch/yaw 'jolt' when using mouse input and launching, or returning to flight from another game state
  * OSX: Fix for the mouse cursor remaining visible when it should not after OSX 'auto-shows' the dock
  * OSX: Fixes for issues with the Apple Magic mouse and MacBook trackpad "scroll wheel"
  * Reduced the stalk base alpha, and the radius from the cursor upto which they are drawn.
  * reduced the dot, system label and region label sizes. The screen was feeling a bit too cluttered.
  * Various text fixes

**Server change log:**
  * The popular SideWinder now has a reduced tech level required to produce it, so fewer shipyards should be left empty across the galaxy
  * Activated Powerplay effects to make the appropriate Commodities legal or illegal in markets controlled or exploited by Powers. The System - Authorities have been informed about these changes to their prohibited lists.
  * Various reliability improvements for exploration scanning and station services

**Balance change log:**
  * The number of votes assigned to players has been increased
  * Requirements for fortify and undermine have been increased by 5 times – this is to encourage more tactical play and we believe this will need increasing further but will review on the next cycle.

Thanks!
