Network Stability Patch
- Posted on September 18th, 2002 - 09:46 by Faustus

We will be releasing a new server-side patch later today that will finally fix the network code stability issues. The problem, as always, was a simple bug that was causing the servers to crash and thus disconnecting all the clients. Thanks to everyone yesterday who got on the servers, and delt with the very annoying crashes, those logs helped in finding the cause of the crashes.

Thanks to everyone for their patience.

We are now testing the stability of the network code in beta, if you would like to help the download the beta client from the Downloads page and join in the action. The new network code needs to be tested with as many players as possible so we can make sure it is stable before it is released.

Version 1.479 Release
- Posted on August 24th, 2002 - 13:17 by Faustus

The next version, 1.479 will be release on Monday August 26th. See the Development Log for full details on the changes in this release.

- Jump Drives now take longer to recharge and consume more fuel for larger ships. This is a HUGE improvement in balance for the smaller ships since they have now have a much faster recharge rate and longer range than before. Additionally, the jump velocity has been increase dramatically to imrprove the playability of the MetaVerse.

- Grouping now awards full prestige and is no longer scaled. This means, players can increase their prestige gain dramatically by forming groups in-game. This change should encourage team-play and help new players into the DarkSpace universe.

- Sever stability has been improved, which is the real reason why this version is being released more quickly than normal.

- All torpedo weapons track now, including the ICC fusion torpedo and the K'Luth AM torpedo.
