Issues with combat experience
okay here's a setup:
kill a bot with gauss, you get +light weapons, only.
Kill a bot using a heavy weapon (jackhammers in my test) you don't get anything.
How do I get heavy weapons exp then? Combat experience is dealt with the (now working) Border patrol missions. A whole +300/+300/+300 for three bots (and a couple of assaults that get nosey.. They don't leave -you- alone, but they leave the bot AI alone.)
thats +100 for each of those fairly difficult bots, when a assault2 gives +150.

Mission experience rewards will have to be tweaked. But yes, you've uncovered a bug. Killing someone with a rocket or mine probably doesn't give you the exp reward. (A gatling cannon or something will work though.) This is a server-side fix, so hopefully I'll have that working in the next few days.
