[EU&US] Rusty's Universe Modded Servers [PvE/CorePvP] Next Wipe: 13/14 April

[Devious]

Both modded EU servers have been wiped so enjoy a fresh galaxy!
The US server won't be wiped yet as that galaxy hasn't been running for that long, most area's are still reasonably fresh.

Dirtyredz has been working hard on a mod to regenerate claimable asteroids over time so that should help considerably with the durability and persistance of the galaxy. We also have a mod planned that will regenerate the content of sectors over time, which could possibly eliminate the need for a wipe due to the galaxy being farmed clean!

I think that is awesome news as that really is something the vanilla game is lacking.

Anyway, enjoy the freshly wiped servers and let's hope that we don't have to wipe anytime soon again

[Dirtyredz]

Our US and EU servers have been wiped and updated to the latest Beta branch (the fighters patch) ENJOY!!

WOAW WOAW WOAW!

Can I have a question? Let's imagine I have some miners in sectors I left behind and few stations as well. When I put my PvP protection down - does that make them killable as well? I mean I would like to have some PvP fun, but not if I had to constantly loose my stations and miners to people ~100 sectors away.

The PvP protection only works outside the core center, inside the core center your ships will only be protected while you  are offline.
So with the current version in order to PvP you'll have to enter the core otherwise you won't be able to damage eachother.

Can i ask how did you increase dock and trading distance? it'd be extremely useful currently for the buggy cargo haulers.

Docking range doesn't affect that unfortunately, should be fixed in one of the recent patches tho.

Due to the ongoing issues and well-explored map we have come to an agreement to wipe the servers so everyone can start on a fresh map.

For this wipe we have a few changes in mind, if you know of any others that could suit these changes, let us know on Discord

Here are the planned changes for the coming wipe:
- Destructible player stations inside the core on the CorePvP servers (offline protection if the player<>player reputation system is not working correctly yet)
- No complexes (due to performance issues )
- Enabled NPC fighters
- Player owned utility stations temporarily disabled on the CorePvP servers due to exploit that needs fixing

We have no set date for the wipe  yet, but you can expect it near the weekend (friday or saturday).

If you recently started playing and will lose your hard earned progress, we are sorry about that but it will be for the better to have a better performing server. Luckily you can use all you've learned so far to do it better and faster next time!
