We have added over 30 new Space missions for Jump to Lightspeed users. This can be found throughout the various Space Stations.
Here are some some tips to getting started:

Any CorSec Pilot can receive new missions (but missions are not offered every time).
Endor:
Imperial and RSF Pilots of Tier 3.5+ (two skills in tier 3) can receive missions.

Tier 2+, Specific story missions for all pilots, rebel pilots, and smuggler pilots.
Lok:
Rebel, CorSec and SA pilots tier 2+ receive missions.
Naboo:
Imperial and RSF Pilots Tier 2+ can receive missions.
Players of the RSF or Imperial track that have completed tier one can do a quest to get access to the Emperor's retreat without doing the ground Theme park missions.
Tatooine System, POI: SA, look for Garret at the Hutt Claims POI.
Any faction can find Kelen Wordka near the Tatooine Station or A'Lerris near the Nalera's Mining Station POI.
Tatooine:
Rebel and SA pilots in Tier 1 can take the duty mission; Tier 2 SA can do the quest for access to Jabba's Palace.
Talus:

Yavin:

New Droid User Interface
Here's how to use the droid programming UI (flight commands UI)
Get a droid, either an astromech or a flight computer.
Get programmed chips (optional). If you have un-programmed chips, you can use the radial menu program the chip with any command your character "knows". You can also buy chips with commands you don't know.
Select the "Program Droid" command from the radial on the droid.
Once the UI appears. All commands you know (from skills) and chips you have (crafted or purchased) are on the left side of the window. All commands IN (active) the droid are on the right side. You can move commands back and forth to program the droid. The volume bar on the right shows how much room you have left. Putting chips in a droid (as opposed to commands you know) destroys the chip when the command is entered. This is so you can get "one-shot" programming of commands you don't know. Each faction gets different commands, so they can trade back and forth.
Press "Commit" to make the change to the droid.
When you are ready to load your droid or flight computer onto your ship, all you have to do is access a starship terminal and go to the "Manage Components" screen. On the left hand side, select the "Droid/Flight Computer" option and "load" it into your ship. You can now access your droid or flight computer in space by pressing CTRL-A while in space.
Announcement on Engine Component Rebalance
The top speed of the Mandal Motors 'Inferno' engine (granted as a quest reward) was reduced from 92 to approximately 79 to achieve better game balance. The certification level required for the 'Inferno' is too low to warrant such a high speed. Please note that engines of this speed (90+) and greater can still be looted and manufactured, but with high enough certification levels as to keep the game balanced. Existing 92 speed "reward" engines will not be affected, but will decay with damage as any other component would.
