    So I'm at Blossom on Pristine, and try to mine some ore in what has ALWAYS been the public mine there, and it tells me I can't do that because this tile is 'protected by the gods'. I go to use the forge and there's a bulk storage bin there with something like 500 kindling and 1000 wood scrap but it will not let me take a single one and considers it stealing. This is awfully strange behavior for a starter town that's supposed to exist to help players find their footing.

     

    That being said I had to go cut down a random ugly fir tree to make a campfire, to smelt my rock iron in because I can't mine in Blossom or use the forges there. The new foraging system that only lets you forage on specific tiles is kinda cool. Also kinda annoying, when used to the old system, but currently the cool factor outweighs the annoying.

     

    My sincere Pseudo-Apologies to whomever it was that complaining in local that I'd cut 'their' fir tree down, (It would have had to be in Perimeter cuz you can't cut stuff down on deeds!), and didn't sprout and replant it with an hour old character, (with no sickle) in the middle of avoiding a scorpion, anaconda, and a Champion wildcat. :P (Build next to a Starter Deed, then QQ that a tree is cut down... okay...)

     

    Coming back to WO I'm shocked at how strangely unaccommodating the 'Starting Town' now is for a new player. Is this supposed to be this way, or is the protection of the facilities an oversight that needs addressed?

    Yes, selling at the token...

     

    Just wondered if it was just out of coin or if this is an intentional 'feature', as I've only ever seen it in WO when the coffers were run dry by a bunch of people selling a zillion items to the token. :D

    Hardware change ahead - Testing required

     

    Three years have passed yet again and some of you know that we change our server hardware every three years within our lifecycle management.
    Therefore, it is time again to test. The new hardware is again much faster than the current one.

     

    We already managed to set up an old backup of Sklotopolis on the new server. Most of the things that are needed are finished, and we have a whole new way of hosting our servers giving us more options and better flexibility in the future. (For the people speaking tech, we use Docker and Ansible to automate almost everything on the new server)

    Test the server now by connecting to the IP 176.9.149.249 port 3724, or just search for silopotolkS (Sklotopolis spelled backward) in the server browser.
    Make sure to give us some feedback 🙂


    We currently plan to change the servers on the 15th of August 2023, which means up to 8 hours of downtime on this day. We will post details once we know if this release date goes as planned.

    Has this been implemented yet? I don't see Sklotopolis (or Liberty or Novus) on the connection list in WU. Is Sklotopolis currently available for play, or no? Thanks!

    I think for the first time in... ever... I'm vastly more worried about the official WO servers shutting down than my WU server shutting down.

     

    New company, staff resignations and firings, we've seen all this before.

     

    But other than the official 'everything is fine' letter from the new CEO last month, we haven't heard boo about what's actually going on.

    I didn't see one in stock, so I have my first custom order for you.

     

    Trowel, 90ql, with 90s coc and woa.

     

    Unless you have a pre-existing one lying around that you can imp and throw some enchants on. That works too.

     

    I'd alternatively be interesting in buying a rare trowel if you have one you'd like to get rid of that you could imp to 90 and throw 90s coc and woa on.

     

    Lemme know, and thanks as always!
