v14.107 Patch Notes

<span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">-Bug Fixes</span>

• Moved default position of the loot queue window off to the left so that it no longer sits behind the battle modes and health gauge.
  [li]Minimap - Button icons should no longer clip outside of the map edge for a single frame while map is opening (or zoom is changed).  Also, the minimap no longer fades in, it snaps in like the rest of the interface does.
  [li]Rewards window in Mission Dialog will now automatically switch to a smaller font that can squeeze out two rows of text whenever the rewards get too long for a single line (like with medal rewards and long values of money).
  [li]Medals started in an instance map will now save state. For example, completing the first Pike medal will start you on the second Pike medal. This second medal would not save state if you were in an instance map until you left and started working on it in another map (or if you happened to complete the second medal too).
  [li]Missions completing in the middle of a mission dialog no longer de-synch the client/server so that the server doesn't give you the next mission.

  [li]Fix for not being able to transfer to an instance map correctly from town and being able to switch instances in town.
  [li]Fix for crash when die while stealthed (ex. you're stealthed, and you're about to die, and you get hit my locking on missiles and die, your TacArc no longer crashes you).
  [li]Fixed a bug where you could have a status icon with no icon picture in it (but it would still have the time remaining and a border frame).
  [li]Fix for loading while minimized/ALT-TABed away (ex. getting INCed or during a loading screen of map loads).
  [li]Fix for windowed mode screenshots.
  [li]Fix for not being able to interact with NPCs randomly.

  [li]If you're starting a new character, you'll notice an abundance of new "First-Time Hints" that should help you with the features of the game.  If you never turned them off with your current characters, you may find a couple of new ones here and there as well.

  [li]Inventory changed to maximum of 4 slots in cargo and locker - any additional inventory will be compensated to character in the form of sell value credits.

  [li]We have a better series of messages that go into your chat window when you gain a level stating how many attribute pts, skill pts, attributes, health, etc. that you gained.
