  2. Developer Update 11.21.2015

    Hello Xsyon Citizens!

    The Peace Server has been updated with a potential final fix for the server lockups that have been occurring from time to time (especially this past week). The War Server will be updated during the next maintenance.

    For a long time, the server has been locking up roughly once a month. Although with each lock up I would obtain additional clues to the problem, it's been very difficult for me to locate the exact cause.

    Thanks!

    The Welcome Station is designed ...
