Hey everyone, it\u2019s a third server update for June! Since there\u2019s 5 Thursdays this month, we\u2019ll have our 1 week wipe from 6\/29 to 7\/6. Since it\u2019s the third wipe, there will be no wiping of BP\u2019s or Skill Tree XP. The map will be an unedited procedurally generated map. We\u2019re not running a custom map or customized proc gen due to our change to Carbon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What is Carbon? I\u2019m glad you asked! Until now, we\u2019ve used Oxide with our server. Oxide is a framework used to run the plugins we have on the server. Carbon is a newer framework that touts better performance as well as some built in features that eliminates the need for some of the plugins we\u2019ve been using. In theory, this should allow me to increase the maximum slots again and to potentially add features to the server that might otherwise cause too much of a load on the server.The tradeoff is that some plugins will not work but these are relatively minor plugins that aren\u2019t essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I will be taking the server offline around 12pm EST on Thursday. I need time to ensure that everything is set up properly when I do the switch over. I need to transfer data and configs as the server files will be an actual new installation configured on the same port as the current server.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Monument Owner is back for this wipe. It\u2019s a new version that hopefully resolves some issues we\u2019ve had in the past. I plan to enable the zones on most of the monuments. I\u2019ll keep an eye on the locking of the monuments and how it affects the players. Hopefully we won\u2019t have any issues, but if one arises, please use the \/staff command to see me or any of the moderators are online.\u00a0If not, put in a support ticket on Discord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019ve been watching the server updates, you\u2019ll know this, but I\u2019ll reiterate it. I will only be running events from now on that use the PVE Mode plugin. This plugin is responsible for locking events to the first player\/team that meets a certain requirement and locks out players not on that team. This is necessary as we\u2019ve had some incidents recently where people couldn\u2019t play nice at events that didn\u2019t lock. This includes the Airfield Drops, Cobalt Labs and Crashed Plane. I\u2019m sure there\u2019s a few more that I\u2019ve run in the past as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s it for this update. I hope to see everyone on the server!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
