Nightsister, Peko Albatross and RIS layers should now have proper bonus attributes.
Crafting
Crafting weapons will now grant the appropriate General or Weapon Crafting XP.
Fixed the way resources are evaluated when used in crafting. Under the old system, a resource's final value for an attribute was the position its rating had between the minimum and maximum possible attribute value for any resource that could go into that slot. Now, it is only relative to the maximum. This will generally improve the value of all resources, especially high-end resources which have high minimum values, especially when used in slots that have very strict requirements. So, for example, assume Frobozium steel has a toughness range from 750-850, and also assume that this steel is being used in a slot which specifically requires Frobozium steel. Under the old system, a particular frobozium steel with a toughness of 800 was considered 50% tough. Under the new system, it will be 94% tough (800 / 850). This change is now also reflected in the visual toolbar.
Food and drink components should now show up under the 'Component' sub-menu of the crafting tool and you should no longer be given the option to consume food or drink components.

Fixed defuse minefield functionality for faction bases.
Inventory
Players can now equip an item without having to remove any item(s) that are equipped in the same slot. The item currently equipped will be put in the player's inventory. If the item the player is trying to equip is not usable by the player, the currently equipped item will not be moved.

Fixed some collision issues with impassable terrain in Kashyyyk.
Tree cantina in Kachirho is now a usable cantina.
Kkowir Forest: The Arena Challenge should now reset properly.
