 Patch notes for Carnyx 1.0

Released on Tuesday, June 2, 2015

FEATURES & CHANGES:  Sovereignty:

• The next stage of Sov 5.0 introduces changes to station services. For more details see the previous dev blogs SUMMER 2015 NULLSEC AND SOV STATUS REPORT (http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/summer-2015-nullsec-and-sov-status-report/) and POLITICS BY OTHER MEANS: SOVEREIGNTY PHASE TWO (http://community.eveonline.com/news/dev-blogs/politics-by-other-means/)

• Station Services
  • Station services for outposts and conquerable stations are now enabled/disabled using the Entosis Link module. They have become immune to regular damage.
  • The structures have been moved away from the center of station to more appropriate locations on the station model. Each type of station/outpost has a different layout of service locations.
  • Services will take 5 minutes of uncontested Entosis Link activation (after completing a warm-up cycle) to enable/disable. To provide a defensive bonus, the time take to disable a service is increased according to the solar system's occupancy multiplier (more details in the dev blogs linked above)
• Activity Defense Multiplier
  • System Sovereignty Index values now combine to form a single Activity Defense Multiplier. In this release the multiplier modifies the time required to disable station services, and in future releases it will modify the time required to capture and reinforce sovereignty structures.
  • Activating an Entosis Link module will now trigger a Weapon Timer. This causes the normal penalties on the ship (cannot jump/dock or switch ships in space)
  • A director in an alliance’s executor corporation is now able to set a default alliance vulnerability time. Currently this has no effect, but will allows alliances to pre-set their timer in preparation for the next stage of sovereignty changes coming in AEGIS.
• Entosis Link module
  • Activating an Entosis Link module will now trigger a Weapon Timer. This causes the normal penalties on the ship (cannot jump/dock or switch ships in space)
