TCPrime/TestCenter Update Notes - January 08, 2008
TCPrime and TestCenter will be coming down shortly. Downtime will run a little longer than normal for a database update.
Storage Deeds:
Storage deeds can now be used on POB ships. Storage deeds can be redeemed from a POB ship terminal or from the ship's control device in a datapad. Ships cannot be re-deeded until all storage deeds are removed.
Group Loot:
Corrected an issue with the lotto loot group loot setting where a player going link dead would result in items on the corpse not transferring properly to the winner.
Beast Master:
Noxious Vrelt Scavengers will now stuff correctly.
User Interface:
Credit and bank values now can be delimited via a token of your choice (comma or period). This option is turned off by default, but you can turn it on via the Options -> Misc panel.
Combat:
The Show Snare Messages checkbox now works as expected.
Jedi:
Saber Block may now be activated with any weapon, though the full benefit will only be realized when using a lightsaber.
Advanced Decoration:
Players can right-click the examine window to rotate objects in their house. While examining an object that can be manipulated in the player's house, right-clicking the window will spawn a menu with options if the needed collections have been completed.
Added left/and right move furniture commands in the Move radial sub-menu, and slash commands /moveFurniture left and /moveFurniture right.
Entertainer:
The Build a Buff UI will no longer allow entertainers to apply buffs with no effects in them.
The Build a Buff UI now properly resets the used points when opening (you don't have to hit the clear button every time anymore).
Space:

Droid Ships now display a more descriptive name for space kill collections.
The Imperial Decimators will no longer give Rebel players kill collection credit as a gunboat.
General:
Naming a building, crafted item or backpack in a player's inventory now ignores any leading @'s. @'s that are not at the start of the name are unaffected. For example: "@my house" will now be treated as "my house", "party @ my place" will still be "party @ my place" and " @home" will remain " @home" (notice the space).
Fixed a bug that would cause inventory and examine windows to display incorrect usability information after changing characters.

The Jedi located near a potted planet has been moved outside of his hut. He is now attackable.
