Exploration Experience Fix (7/23/03)

Hello all,

We've pushed an emergency patch to correct a balance issue with exploration experience gain. The combination of the prospecting formula change, cherry-picking prevention bonus, the new harvestable fields, and the higher quantity of ore dropping resulted in experience gains that were considerably higher than intended. We've made the following changes:
  • We've reverted the prospecting formula.
  • We've removed the cherry-picking prevention bonus experience. We'll be re-evaluating the bonus later as we are eager to get the galaxies back online as soon as possible.
All of the new resource fields and increased drops will remain and add considerable improvements to prospecting experience.

We apologize for the downtime and appreciate the reports from the community that helped us identify this balance problem.
