Istrolid Update 1.0.1 - Community Balance Council #2

We have run the Community balance council 2 and gotten a series of results guiding things ever so slightly towards a new and more mobile meta. Jump changes, heavy PD-able changes, and some minor tweaks are in this round. We look forward to seeing the effect on the current meta. PD-able Adjustments by Owlfeathers These are a modest rework increasing the general quality of PD-able weaponry.

This is a general minor nerf to damage and a slight normalization. Phase Bomb Damage 160 → 150 Reload Time 3.75 → 3.56 (5% faster RoF) Weight 20T → 22T Energy use 3600e→ 3500e Jump Buff by Owlfeathers Jump changes seem to have been mostly in the right direction, but it seems a hair weak. The official proposal by Owl was requesting a sharper decrease to min distance, but because of the jump-delay currently present, min distance is only being reduced to 150 for now. This is a much larger buff than it seems at first, roughly improving the part by 50% for ships that just wanted a jump-turn. Jump Drive Jum...
