1.1.4 Patch Notes

BioWare has patched the game again (yes, on Wednesday instead of on Tuesday as they have before) bringing the game up to version 1.1.4. Though it includes a number of nice bugfixes I think that the main addition is probably the inclusion of the new cooldown appearance settings, allowing players to change how the cooldowns appear (getting rid of the flashing if desired and such).

Here are the full patch notes:


1.1.4 Patch Notes — 2/22/2012


General

    • The key formerly bound to /bug can now be mapped to any action and no longer opens the /bug window. The command is no longer able to be bound to a quickslot, but player can still type /bug in chat to open a new bug report.

Classes and Combat

    General

    • Using abilities with indirect targeting (such as area of effect abilities) will no longer cause players to be flagged for PvP if a PvP-flagged player from the opposing faction is within the ability's range, and the ability will have no effect on the PvP-flagged player.

    Imperial Agent

      Operative

      • Medical Therapy: Kolto Probe and Recuperative nanotech will now properly benefit from this skill.

    Bounty Hunter

      Powertech

      • Carbonize: PvP armor for Combat Tech will no longer prevent this skill from stunning enemies.

    • Added several new preferences for cooldown appearance:
      • Show Ready Flash: Toggles a bright flash when an ability finishes cooldown.
      • Show Global Cooldown Ready Flash: Toggles a bright flash when an ability finishes global cooldown.
      • Cooldown Style: Changes the art style for the cooldown graphic.
      • Global Cooldown Style: Changes the art style for the global cooldown graphic.
      • Show Cooldown Timer: Toggles cooldown time text on top of the ability icon in the quickbar.

    Bug Fixes

    • Items placed in a quickbar are no longer removed when training abilities.
    • Using Shift + Right Click to split a stack of usable items will no longer cause the item to be used.
