Anarchy Extinction Bug: the SALVAGE mission SCAVENGER NPCs are still attached to local anarchy and not some neutral pirate faction. You can still be sent on missions by an anarchy faction where you have to murder that faction's NPCs to complete it. (raised by Naboo)

Previously reported as fixed by FDev, it was apparently only fixed for retrieval and protect missions.

WhErE tHe ChEeSe At?

Airag, also called Kumis or Ayrag is a fermented dairy product made from raw mare's milk. It is the traditional drink for many people of Central Asia, particularly of Huno-Bulgar, Turkic and Mongol origin. The milk can be mildly alcoholic, but it needs to be consumed in enormous quantities to have any noticeable effect.

The milk is fermented by a combination of lactic acid bacteria and yeast in a horse-hide container called a "saba". Since the milk is fermented; Airag is suitable for lactose intolerant people. The taste of the milk is sour but can be quite yummy. Airag is used to make cheese, yogurt.
