We are going to apply a large balance patch that changes a bunch of game-play elements. A full change-log will be posted this Friday.

The downtime will be a bit longer than usual due to some additional steps that need to be taken. I will keep you informed on the progress in Discord.

Due to problems with the loginserver we were forced to reboot the server.

Another minor update to the rules.

Gameplay:

Placing items to block players from leaving or entering points of interest or prevent access to any public area is not allowed. Placing items to create a yard is fine as long as it doesn’t obstruct points of interest.

A minor update to the rules.

Kidnapping NPC’s by luring them into your house is illegal. Taming and Spellbinding is fine.

This means that using discordance, herding, etc… to lure NPC’s to an enclosed private space without capturing them (becoming owner) is illegal.

The reason why is because these NPC’s will not re-spawn until they are killed.

As mentioned in the announcement channel. We are getting a new server. This means I will have to set it up on Tuesday and move all the stuff over. I will try to do this as fast as possible and hopefully keep the downtime to a minimum.

While we’re at it we will also do some changes.

• Fixed various debug messages.
