Woohoo, they finally made a change to the vendors, too bad it wasn't before I lost 200k.

Update Notes October 31, 2003
• Changed Squad Leader XP to be based on total combat related XP earned by group not just Combat XP
• Make buildings only disallow access due to enemy flags for temporary aligned enemy flags
• Change visual enemy flag indicator to only include temporary aligned enemy flags
• Temporary enemy flags now only last 5 minutes.
• Cases where players were not receiving credits for items they sold on bazaar terminals or vendors have been corrected.
• People with temporary enemy flags may no longer enter player placed structures other than factional bases.
