There's been a lot of cool updates released over the past month which I hope is already improving your experiences in-game, including but not limited to the new Cartel Armory loaning feature which has been an often requested feature, the removal of all backgrounds on images (big thanks to PATCHWORK [15606]) which makes the dark mode experience even better, the new Cartel Role-Based permissions which should simplify Cartel management significantly, the new Life & Energy bars and the reduced tick rate, and finally, a lot of areas in the game becoming live at long last!
