Dear players,
tomorrow starting at 10:00 CEST we will be rolling out version 17.2.0-r1. The maintenance is expected to take about 2 hours until every server is rolled out.
- As usual, during that time it is advisable to not have any unit upgrades or bigger fleet movements ongoing, as well as account transfers.
Find detailed information in the changelog below:
- Changes:
- Individual Happy Hours: The groundwork has been laid for a new individual version of happy hours. Unlike the regular server-wide event, these will be tied to your own gameplay activity.
- Donations made to the Helios Tower will now be removed from the remaining duration when a player leaves the server due to account transfer or inactivity. If that player’s oil is the one currently burning, only the exact remaining time from their donation will be deducted from the tower.
- Bug fixes:
- Fixed an issue that caused merchant ships to travel faster than the displayed travel time during the Festival of the Worlds.
- Fixed an issue that caused the population to increase excessively during the Festival of Worlds.
- Fixed the building construction countdown in the browser tab title not updating to the next queued building after switching away from the town view.
- Various backend fixes and adjustments.
