Computer Problems & Possible Mod Changes

Sorry I have not been around much the last few days. I've been having some computer problems and it might take another day or two to get them sorted out. I won't bore you with the details, but I foresee a new hard drive coming.

(the thought of reinstalling everything makes me wanna cry)

Also, as I was reading through the update notes for Structures +, I realized that I might be able to remove a mod from the server. The mod to be removed will be Water Bore.

The mod author has adjusted his mod so that the S+ Intake Pipes do not need to be placed in actual water. I know that the Water Bore mod isn't large, but one less mod to load is not a bad thing.

The S+ mod author has also removed the Land Claimer due to issues with it. If you have one at your base, it will be gone. Sorry.

Extra Ark 2.0 Added Back In

The mod author updated Extra Ark 2.0 late last night. I have re-installed it on the server. All appears to be working well now.

You will need to re-learn all of its associated engrams.

New 'Server Status' Page

I've created a new page called 'Server Status'. This is where I will post information as to why the server might be down.

If you see that the server is not online, please check there for reason and length of time it is expected to be down.

Thank you!

Changes to Server Restarts and Backups

I've made some changes to the times that server restarts and backups are performed.

Restarts are still daily and now take place at 4pm EST. In game message reminders should begin 15 minutes prior to this event.

Server backups will now perform daily at 4am EST, instead of weekly. Like with restarts, in game message reminders should begin 15 minutes prior to this event.

The server shuts down, and restarts, for both of these events. Please log out before they begin to prevent corruptions or rollbacks.

Mod Removed (Extra ARK 2.0)

I apologize if removing this mod messes up anything at your base. Apparently, this mod was/is the cause of the server issues I was having. It was creating corrupt saves, as well as not working properly. I have removed it for now and will re-install it when the author gets it fixed.

I have installed a new mod, however. 'APS: Ark Postal Service'. This looks like it could be a very handy mod in the long run. With this mod we will be able to send each other in-game mail.

Thank you for your patience during all of this.
