[h3]Version 0.660[/h3]
🎯 [Continuum Challenges] Continuum Challenges are now available in the beta test branch from the new station platform in Reginald (waypoint 1 in Act 1)! Each challenge provide fixed player buffs such as bonus skill points when completed. Beware: If you die during the challenge, you need to restart it completely. Unlock them by completing a Continuum Event (any - you need to do this again even if you have completed a Continuum Event pre this patch).

🎯 [New skill] The Xinthu tier 7 skill Experimental Catalyst has been added. If a weapon provides damage over time, its direct damage and hull repair are converted to damage over time. Attack speed is reduced by 80%.
🎯 [Balance] The "Brute Edition" weapon mod can no longer be used on purely auxiliary weapons that have 0 DPS.
🎯 [UI] Current player conditions in the UI are now sorted according to type and effectiveness.
🎯 [Misc] The setting "Networking_Max_MTU" has been added (this setting is not possible to change from within the game). Per default, the max MTU for network packets is automatically identified by the game itself. However, some users seem to have had issues with this function. A too high MTU can cause various weird behavior when playing multiplayer, such as lag and infinite loading screens. If you experience such events when playing multiplayer, try setting Networking_Max_MTU to 1200. I.e., add 1200 to ../game_root/Data/config.cfg.
