Patch 0.9.3

another patch so soon? well Orban kings was outputting roughly 2-5 times the intended damage, and a few other things that were of issue.

General Changes

• Ping duration on the mini-map from 2.5 seconds to 5 seconds
• Max pings per minute reduced from 10 to 6. you can only ping once every 10 seconds now. note: we are working on a muting function. but for now we gotta lower it. once we have a muting function in we will raise the limit for the people that can use responsible

Structures

• Take 70% reduced damage from triggered damage sources of weapons. Like Orban Kings, Spark Generator, etc..
• Shipyard and Saltcore damage reduction from minions increased from 20% to 30% Note: having minions help push is great and a corner stone of the macro game, but they shouldn't be leading to games ending all on there own to often

Minions

• Incoming damage reduced from triggered weapon projectiles and area from 30% to 35% Note: meaning like Orban Kings area, Spark Generators sparks, the splitters from Hull Splitters. etc..

• Returning Harvesters now provide [200-400] Occo to the Empire (and thus the payout)

Small Class Ships

Seabloom
Ability 3 - Black Lotus
