By Ambassador Kael | Wed 08 Apr 2020 08:52:54 PM PDT

PC:

General:

  • First Contact Day Event:
    • Resolved an issue that would sometimes cause AFK status to be applied after completing First Contact Day – Model Rocket TFO.

    • First Contact Day – Model Rocket TFO, will no longer backfill the match if someone drops out.
    • Resolved an issue in the Patrol, “One night in Bozeman”, that would sometimes prevent progression on the “Defeat Borg” objective.
  • Resolved an issue during the mission, "Sleepers” that prevented Tactical officers from being able to proceed through the mission while aboard the derelict vessel in the T'liss System.
  • Resolved an issue that could prevent progress on the "Dependable," "Vigilant," and "Reliant" accolades for completing charting the B'Tran cluster.
  • Resolved an issue in the Accolade "Riker's Apprentice” that could potentially cause this accolade not to complete when player had successfully destroyed two Son'a ships during the first space map by blowing them up with an exploding metreon gas cloud.
  • Changed "Riker's Apprentice" accolade to complete if you inflict damage on multiple Son'a ships with one Metreon gas explosion during the mission "Brushfire."
  • Moved all of the star cluster exploration accolades (Delta Volanis exanse, T'Ong nebula, etc.) into a separate section of the accolade journal labeled "Exploration - Star Clusters."
