Animations that apply status effects are now split into 2 categories:
"Persistent" - Continuous color pulsing on a ship that applied a buff to self.
Affected ships: D, E, M, P, Q, V
"Flash" - A quick 1-time color flash, after which, if applicable, previously applied Persistent animation is resumed
To show a hint that the status effect is still applied - a small colored pip, similar to Shield and Health pips, shows up on one side of the ship, next to Health and Shield pips
Affected Ships: G, N, O, T, U, X
Gravitating state applied by G Ship Ultimate no longer produces a distortion-like visual effect, for consistency it is now a Flash color effect as well.
Shock damage from U Ship Ultimate now also uses an explicit Flash animation
