Some significant balance changes this week. Many of them have been planned for awhile, and we are just now getting them all out. We are trying to normalize missiles with normal weapons a bit. Currently PD is strong enough to shut down missiles too easily (because of how mod sharing now works). We are weakening accurate 100% successful PD, making it better against light harass. Additionally, we are trying to bring Heavy Armor back into a better place, as it was too reliant on a bug (ship pushing was too easy), which has now been fixed.

Missile/PD Changes
• Artillery: 15% Reduction in Damage
• Missile: 15% Reduction in RoF
• Light PD: RoF massively reduced to 0.5 shots per second. Damage increased to 15 to maintain DPS. Range increased to 400.
• Micro 360: Range modifier 50% -> 66%.

Armor Changes
• Heavy Armor: Mass reduced by 16%
• Volumetric Armor: HP Increased by 25%. Mass increased by 30%.

Other Balance Changes
• Tesla: RoF Decreased by 20%.
• Module Sharing: Penalty increased with first weapon, approximately the same with 6 weapons per mod
• Ship Collisions: Technically a bug fix, but with large balance implications. Ships now respect mass correctly when pushing/being pushed.

Galaxy Mode Changes
• Many bosses tweaked to be more engaging and less beatable by 'cheese' tactics.
• Fixed bugs with some AIs not spawning ships correctly.
