Spectrum MOTD Update:

[4.1.0-LIVE] We have rolled out a DGS hotfix on select shards for testing. This hotfix has work for Surface Mineable issues as well as fauna causing large entity counts. From our testing, this new hotfix is now stable and appears to have resolved the issue so we have made it the default replacement build to replace instances that crash. This will slowly scale as this happens but will fully replace any that haven’t been hotfixed during the maintenance on Wednesday (current goal day)

Spectrum MOTD:

(Tuesday) Goals for the week:

  • [4.1.1-PTU] We are currently cooking a new 4.1.1 PTU build for an Evocati and Possible Wave 1 publish tonight. (WIll be up with Evocati for a couple hours to validate before opening wave 1)
  • ** [4.1.0-LIVE] We are currently testing further Surface Mineable hotfixes for more edge cases we found last night and plan on rolling these out with the server maintenance on Wednesday if all goes well.**

Wave. 2. :ocean:

CIG has decided that the PTU was too not PVP and needed more PVP. All weekend Polaris will be spawnable by all backers in PTU. Reminder currently PTU is Wave 2. “You will need to repair/recopy your account to get the Polaris on PTU”. May the deities of Stanton have mercy on our Size 10 souls and may the wreckage of endless Polaris not block your extra large hangar exit.
