• The 'Imperial Crackdown' - nice thought, but it doesnt really work. No advantage to being a smuggler as far as I can tell ... just be an imp.
• Fixed broken old spices - of course they remain useless compared to chef and Dr. Buffs which have NO downers what-so-ever.

•  Smuggler Missions added in space. - for anyone in the game ... not for smugglers.  Everyone with JTL now has a greater ability to smuggle than non-JTL ground smugglers.

Oooh, but that would be all too simple!

  Well, I'm a Master Smuggler and I've been scanned many times. Out of the hundreds of times I've been scanned.... I think I've been caught once or twice. Boring if you ask me.
• Fixed broken old spices - of course they remain useless compared to chef and Dr. Buffs which have NO downers what-so-ever.
  Gotta love our spice... with nothing to love about it.
• *Stealth Nerf* Auto-pulling on Slicing materials is disabled. - I'm still so P***ED at this one - saying it was a accident when the patch notes said "Smugglers:"
  Tell me about it. This was another stab into Smugglers. This nerf was the biggest pain in the ass.
• Slicing XP added for FS Senses XP conversion. - but  a smuggler cannot use the exp for the most smuggler like skills (such as luck) without dropping something and mastering medic.
  Smugglers really should be able to get some skills... because we're a mix of professions. Crafting, slicing, pistols, even "healing" some could say. Because I'm a Smuggler, I really wanted to have Luck and Persuasion (spelling?). Perfect skills for Smugglers! But, of course, seeing as I'm a Smuggler/Commando, I'm stuck with Ranged and Melee... two useless skills (especially melee).
• Spice Crafting XP added for  FS Crafting XP conversion. - but  a smuggler cannot use the exp for the most smuggler like skills (such as luck) without dropping something and mastering medic.
  See what I said above.
• JTL is live. We can now fly a YT-1300 just like Han Solo… - and so can anyone else in the game.
  I never wanted to be a Han Solo wannabee anyway. I want to be me, Degwin Tze'Midak. THough I really do think Smugglers should've gotten the Smuggler's Run (shown in an anniversary painting) as a special Smuggler-only space craft.
•  Smuggler Missions added in space. - for anyone in the game ... not for smugglers.  Everyone with JTL now has a greater ability to smuggle than non-JTL ground smugglers.
  Try the Talus station. The guy there gives missions, but you have to have Underworld skills to understand him. That's about the only "smuggler mission" we get.
