Downtime

Post by +Colibri »

While i was preparing the server for a restart it crashed, and while i have it down i'll try to set up the redundant connection.

Not to worry, all of your pets will be recovered.

It is now back online. The redundant connection i'm afraid isn't working (yet, not sure that this solution i have right now will ever work tho)...

There are a few script updates, nothing big tho, i will post in the devlog soon.

Everybody who was online at the time of the disconnect will get 3ed as a token of apology for the unannounced restart (and for waiting patiently for the server to get back online).

This topic will be deleted after a day.

Yes, it is down...

Post by +Rayne »

Yes, the shard seems to be down, so it is not just a single person with a login issue. I hate to say this but it could be a little while if it is something Colibri has to manually fix, as he is away for the day. Let's hope it will auto-fix :shock:

On a brighter note, I did not think it is a crash per say.. There was no message indicating "Server has Crashed" so I do not think it is anything to be worried about.


Is everyone getting stuck on Verifying Account?

Oh do I wish I could, but considering the Colibri's location is basically on the other side of the world, I am not able to oblige.. However, take heart it knowing I am just as desperate to get back into the game as you. I have many creations in the works and need to continue working on them today.

Hang in there guys... :idea:
