Version 1.5.8

Written by martin published on October 25, 2011 in News

UPDATE II: All game worlds have been patched. Please note that some have accumulated quite a bit of backlog due to the rather long downtimes.

UPDATE: For technical reasons we were only able to upgrade Idlewild and Croydon. The other game worlds will follow tomorrow. Thank you for your understanding!

Finally, after a regrettably long period of relative silence, we are able to announce a patchday: Today we will upgrade all game worlds to version 1.5.8. This is a maintenance release, primarily, largely consisting of small new features, bugfixes and various performance- and stability-optimizations. As usual, you can find a complete change-log at the end of this post.

A few words about the course of action: We will upgrade Kaitak and Idlewild first. If all goes to plan, the other machines will follow right afterwards. Please be aware that - due to changes to our statistics database - the upgrade process can take several hours during which the game worlds will be inaccesible. Thank you for your patience and your understanding!
