Reset Date: Friday July 31st! Details inside
Posted: Wed Jul 29, 2015 5:32 pm
Howdy all!
As we've discussed, the reset of the server to a new map (large size) on expert mode will occur in a couple days. Specifically, it will happen on Friday, July 31st at around 7:00pm central time.
Please make sure to save any items from the current server that you feel are yours and take them to your SP world prior to this date. The current world will cease to exist.
I've been talking with Stevo, who has been kind enough to take some time out of his evening to help us get it set up. We'll lock down the server with a temporary password at around 7:00pm Ville time (Central) Friday evening, and he'll do a reset with our new options. I'll head in to make sure the server is functioning correctly, the map isn't borked, and everything is working as expected. Some time between 7:15 and 7:30 (barring complications) we'll swap the password back to normal and invite everybody in to start the new adventure!
Nothing will be pre-built, and no items will be spawned.
Since permissions seem to be functioning correctly lately (the Celestial Sigil not working isn't a permission issue, it's a programming issue), I'm anticipating leaving the permissions as is (though obviously if we run in to problems, they'll be updated).
I'm still waiting one last bit of info about Server Side Characters/Inventory before saying for sure we'll use it, but it's looking likely we will. It's possible that players will have to create in-game accounts on the server and log in when they connect to play, which is an extra step I know, but ensures a clean server environment. The process is very simple (a one-time account registration, after which it is accomplished simply by typing "/login username password" when you connect), and you get used to it fast.
