Miscellaneous updates.

Hi all!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the Facility Playtests this week. We're working hard to implement all your feedback. The result will be 1000% better thanks to all your fantastic input.

Now a couple of miscellaneous points worthy of mention:

- Many of you have noticed Giftwrap not working properly. I have had to shut off its ability to target non-loyal items, as well as mobs, for obvious reasons. This means it won't work for a rather large number of potentially reasonable things you'd want to wrap, which we'll work on as time goes on. Priority, however, was in closing off its exploitability.
- Many of you have called out the absurdly high passenger mission XP at higher Captaincy levels. What I thought was supposed to have been a feature (percentage based XP gain) was, upon closer inspection, actually a bug, and it was never intended to work this way infinitely into the highest levels of Captaincy/Admiralty. As such the XP gain from passenger missions at higher Captaincy levels has been brought back down to reality.

Regards,
Neritus
