Version 1.7.1.1 (December 23rd, 2020) | Version 1.7.2 (February 7th, 2021)

* Change: Further optimization of gamestate usage for maps with dynamic lighting or many target\_location entities.
* Change / Fix: g\_teamSwap is now a serverinfo cvar. Improved teamswap scoreboard behaviour.
* Fix: Selecting a character with the SBD class in FA/Legends (IG-88, Galak Mech, Duckwalker, etc) will no longer cause a server crash.
* Fix: Force powers are once again usable after dropping or using map objective items which disable force powers whilst they are being carried.

* Fix: Resolved occasional issues with saber style change not working when saber isn't ignited.

### Gameplay

* New: Jedi jump kick now available to all melee users that have access to kicks. The minimum height requirement is also reduced. This shares the same cooldown timer with other special melee moves such as uppercuts.
* Fix: Melee kicks and other knockdown moves should now work vs saberists that are in states where they aren't defending themselves (such as using force powers) even while holding down the block button.
* Change: EE-3 now lets you use primary shots while you're in secondary weapon mode and not scoped.
* Change: Wookiee forward / strafe speed increased slightly if using Bowcaster 3 and Health 3 (Assault build).
* Change: Wookiee barge damage lowered from 15 to 10.
* Change: Poison FP regeneration reduction reduced from 100% to 50%.
* Change: Ion blob stun time has been normalized across all classes (mechanics are otherwise unchanged). Indirect hits will stun from 0.86-3 seconds (depending on damage), and a direct hit will enhance damage by 25% (up to a little over 3.5 seconds at max charge).
* Change: Pulse Grenades
	+ Adjusted visual effect of pulse nades to more accurately show their detonation radius (thrown is larger than grenade launcher).
	+ The electrify mechanic for thrown pulse nades, launched pulse nades, and pulse rockets has been reworked to simplify effects:
		- The baseline stun time is 2.5 seconds. Droid classes (Deka, SBD) receive an extra half second (3 seconds total).
		- Droidekas no longer suffer from negative ammo drain (clip is still drained to 0 and ammo regeneration prevented for duration).
		- Pulse Rockets can now knock down SBDs and do hull damage to Droidekas.
* Change: Dodge
	+ Fewer dodge points drained if dodging from far / mid range.
	+ Farther or at 950 units: 11 reduced to 9 points
	+ New: Added range of 949-600 units which drains 16, resulting in more shots able to be dodged while approaching.
		- Farther than 300: remains at 25 points
		- Closer than 300: remains at 51 points
* Change / Fix: Normalized knockback from blaster fire - further refinements
	+ Normalized knockback no longer triggers during the return phase of swings (end of the animation before going back to idle/blocking). This should prevent additional instances of knockback occurring during non-damaging parts of the swing.
	+ Clone Rifle level 3 has knockback lowered to 85% to account for its high rate of fire.
	+ Saberists that are swingblocking shouldn't have higher knockback than when they take health damage in certain circumstances.
* Change / Fix: FP Drains - further refinements
	+ Charged shots now properly scale up FP drains, especially at lower charge levels.
	+ Shots against saberists that aren't blocking now capped at draining 70 FP.
	+ Saber Defense 0: increased incoming FP drain multiplier reduced from 3.0x to 2.5x
	+ Saber Defense 1: increased incoming FP drain multiplier reduced from 1.6x to 1.3x

### User Interface

* New: The FA / Legends character select menu is no longer limited to 6 slots, instead uses a feeder style similar to Open/Duel.
* Fix: Selected item border thickness no longer increases at higher screen resolutions.

### Full Authentic

* New: Added FA weaponflag HELD\_DISRUPTIFY (dying to a projectile weapon with this flag will cause the disintegration effect).
* New: Legendary Sith vs. Jedi FA for uM\_Vjun - created by -{EXE-} n00b.
* Change: FA weapons with the shock effect (weaponflag HELD\_PULSE) now drain only ⅓ of ammo clip (previously ½).
* Fix: MB\_ATT\_STRONGBLOGS not working as intended on any class other than MB\_CLASS\_CLONETROOPER.
* Fix: Fixed several dozen discrepancies and typos throughout Official/CMP/uM/PB characters, some of which could result in instability.

	+ A new route from Tie Fighter Hangar to Conference Room will be opened when secondary spawns become active.
	+ Tractor Beam Shaft sensor traps will now crush anything blocking their fall and the top parts cannot be stood on.
