CRITICAL
Jump Bridges

• It is now only possible for one jump bridge to be online in a system at any given time. If two jump bridges are online in the same system when the patch is deployed, one of them will be taken offline. If you try to anchor a jump bridge in a system that already has one jump bridge or more anchored, it will not anchor. No jump bridges will be unanchored by the patch. Players will be able to unanchor their jump bridges that are offlined by the patch.Jump bridges will have their storage capacity increased from 10,000m3 to 30,000m3. This is to aid with logistics.

Ships

• All players logging into Tranquility will now have to create an avatar. You will not be able to proceed into game without one.

FEATURES
Captain's Quarters

• The Maller, an Amarr cruiser, has had a dramatic makeover and looks fantastic. Go buy one tomorrow and be the envy of all your friends.

Captain's Quarters
A new 3D user interface has been built to support interaction with Captain's Quarters features.
The station hangar has been replaced with Captain's Quarters. Capsuleers can now, for the first time, step out of their pod and stretch their legs in their personal quarters. Please check out this dev blog by CCP Zulu for more information.
Captain's Quarters include the hangar balcony, where one can enjoy a gorgeous view of one's active ship in the hangar.
The main screen provides information about things happening in the EVE universe, including sovereignty changes, the Interstellar Correspondents News Feed, incursions and more - stay tuned.
The Captain's Quarters have tools that will make life for the capsuleer much easier, including the agent finder, corporation recruitment, planetary interaction, character re-customization and ship fitting.
A new camera system was built from the ground up to support avatar movement and various state transitions.
An extensive avatar movement scheme using Natural Motion's Morpheme has been developed to control your character. This includes an eight directional movement scheme accessible via keyboard controls, click-to-move and mouse movement.
Separate keyboard shortcuts for Captain's Quarters and flying-in
