Yesterday Legacy servers had a mishap with a few files and they "expired" meaning the game went down except the odd few systems like the staff system, wiki etc... I logged on 6 hours later and started the process of getting the game back online and notifying players.

Relating to the Main Forum thread I have now granted all staff access to Twitter and given them powers to leave a portal message however when the game goes fully down don't expect any notification unless it's a planned downtime.

Apologies to all players for yesterday, Zorg went into the HCS Office today to fix the problem so Legacy shouldn't randomly die again.

Everything should be working again now, after I managed to break quite a few things last night updating the server and rebuilding the code. Also fixed some issues with email activation and password recovery. The advent calendar is being designed and will be up on Monday, got a long week end ahead.

Took me about 4 days longer than I planned to move Legacy to local hosting and SVN.

Routine server updates seem to have killed all cron services (ticks) and my ability to login to the server. Currently in the process of contacting FastHosts to try and get in to the control panel so I can KVM to the server to fix it. More information will be posted when available, until the game is ticking Warfare will be down.

All legacy scripts have now been updated to run through version control, they also detect their environment so no changes will be needed when moving scripts between development, main and local projects. This should make development easier, I've had to remove the line counts from the updates page as the new PHP encoding software we use makes it impossible.

If you find any bugs with the new scripts let me know. More news coming soon!
