Gameplay:

Abilities and Mechanics

• Doubled the damage of all smartbombs, and then adjusted the sig radius sim damage profiles for ability based damage to better balance the damage applied by smartbombs, bombs, super weapons and any other ability damage. This is in order to better balance bombs, which were too effective vs small targets without removing nearly all of the utility provided by smartbombs in the process. This also creates a signature radius like effect for the Drifter super weapon.
• Adjusted the range of the Monitor and it's casting ability in order to try and help make it a little more feasible to use for a wider range of different ranged fleet configurations. Tweaked it's targeting priority so that it will prefer to clear nearby capitals before starting work on super capitals.
• Moved the creation abilities of the Nightmare and Apocalypse Navy to the headquarters. And placed the creation ability for the Zarmazd logistics cruiser onto the Azbel.
• Added fighter like movement dynamics to T1 Frigates, T1 Destroyers and the T3 Destroyers.
• Adjusted the threshold at which Force Auxiliaries will enter Triage Mode. The threshold will now activate the ability when nearby targets are deeper into Shield/Hull.
• Bosonic Field Generator
  • Damage application failures caused by anomalous behavior triggered by the buff being removed by the actual ability file itself, and thus causing the damage to cease prematurely.As a temporary measure, fix applied by making the damage buff continue to apply until the end of the weapon cycle, regardless of the position of the original target, as long as it was inside the target cone area when the weapon itself was actually fired.

AI

• Made a few changes to how it interacts with Freighters and Capitals early game period in order to better stabilise its activity, thus bringing its behaviour back to a more normal level, without it waiting so much in this period.
• Adjusted the costs and timers for the use of Capital-Ships in order to slow down the number created in early game periods, without also excessively reducing its mid to late game capital production
