Hi all,

Here are some updates to cargo contracts, piracy, etc. First attempt at a balance pass, and fixing some bugs:

- Fixed an issue with registering piracy rating changes from killing pirates. It should now register properly from here on out.
- Cargo ships should now drop junk and grant experience like normal.
- Increased the commodity drop value of NPC haulers and smugglers.
- Increased the value of contraband for selling and turning in.
- The Notoriety required to be autoflagged as pirate has been reduced from 2000 to 500.
- Increased the speed of pirate attacks against Wardens.
- You can now CARGO CONTRACTS MAXIMUMS to see maximums for cargo contracts taken and placed.
- PIRACY MAP now shows your location.
- Org placed contracts now work properly.
- Pickup while specifying an ID now works properly.
- Fixed an issue where some cargo ships could get stuck and go invisible.

Regards,
Neritus
