Posted November 5 (edited) Welcome to Sklotopolis Infinity Round 2 and so the adventure begins After the huge success of Sklotopolis Infinity Round 1 we proudly present the next round of Sklotopolis Infinity. With a rich history dating back to 2015, Sklotopolis has been a haven for players looking for a sandbox experience on our 3 original servers that have never been wiped in the last 9 years. But, after such a long time many players have 9+ years head start in comparison to new players. This makes Sklotopolis not newbie friendly because new players have no real chance in catching up and on the player markets the long-time players have a massive advantage, giving new players no real challenge on our servers anymore. As a solution to this problem, we opened Sklotopolis Infinity on the 25th of May 2024 for the first time, almost 9 years after Sklotopolis has been introduced. Sklotopolis Infinity has all Sklotopolis mods installed and emerges as a solution to the needs of our player base while constantly attracting new players. Recognizing the importance of maintaining a welcoming environment for all players, Sklotopolis introduces Infinity, a new cluster designed to provide a fresh start for everyone. In Infinity, every player begins anew, with skills and items left behind on the original servers Liberty, Novus and Caza. On Infinity the slate is wiped clean, offering an equal footing for veterans and newcomers alike to forge their paths in a world untainted by past achievements. However, Infinity is more than just a fresh server cluster, unlike the original servers (Liberty, Novus, Caza) which will never be wiped, Infinity operates on a unique model of periodic resets. Approximately every year, the servers within the Infinity cluster undergo a reset. With new servers launching every 6-12 months, players can continually embark on new adventures, adapting to new maps and challenges with each iteration. But what truly sets Sklotopolis Infinity apart from other Wurm Unlimited servers is its seamless integration with the original servers. While Infinity offers the thrill of starting anew, players don’t need to fear losing their hard-earned progress. Players can freely travel from Infinity to the Original servers (but not in the other direction), ensuring that no skill or items are lost when an Infinity server resets. Even as servers within Infinity reset periodically, players retain the ability to access their accounts on the original servers, transporting items and continuing their adventures without interruption over there. This unique synergy between Infinity and the original servers ensures that players can enjoy the best of both worlds: the excitement of fresh beginnings and the stability of established servers. Plus, whenever an Infinity server is reset, the world will be available for download, so even your old deed is accessible to you forever. Nothing will ever be lost. In a move that showcases Sklotopolis' commitment to excellence, all maps for Sklotopolis Infinity servers are generated using a special map created with the commercial tool World Machine, the same tool that Notch used when generating the first Wurm Gold servers back in 2007. Infinity Round 2 will open on the 23rd of November, 2024 at 9pm UTC. Map of Infnity Round 2: https://andistyr.github.io/wu-map/14901-topo/ You don't like resets?

But not in the other direction. Data Safety Backups will happen every 3 hours daily. They will be stored local on the server in Germany and all backups are transferred to the Microsoft OneDrive Cloud too. Further more we keep daily backups up to one month and weekly backups up to 6 months. So if something goes wrong we likely can restore ingame items up to 6 months.

Posted November 11 I first started playing Sklotopolis in June of 2017. It is an amazing community and a great server. I took a break for a while, but I am really looking forward to the challenge of Infinity Round 2. Starting with the armor on our back and the basic tools, carving out new deeds and new alliances, no established markets to rely on until we build them from the ground up. Plus, based on trying out Infinity Round 1, the faster skill gain is really satisfying after having a nearly maxed out character that rarely got any skill ticks. Now the hard part. What do I name my character? 🙃 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 17 (edited) New Hybrid Skilling For the Infinity server we use hybrid skilling, which comes very close to the Skillsystem in Wurm Online. During the last round we improved the system and we now use the blue curve. We received very positive feedback about it. Edited November 17 by Sklo:D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
