25NOV11 - Server Upgrade

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi all

We've been very busy behind the scenes, but a bit lax in updating the release notes. So without further adieu:

SERVER MOVE
The server migration completed successfully and the time Illyriad was offline was only 7hrs rather than the expected 9hrs. 

GENERAL SPEED UPS
Various server-side modules and database functions have been streamlined and optimised to allow for both higher scalability and higher performance.

LOGIN ISSUES
The server-side login system has been rewritten and the various login issues caused by the server move have been fixed.

SITTER ISSUES
Sitter issues have been resolved and it should now be easy to switch between accounts.

ALLIANCE CHAT
The short-term memory loss of Alliance chat has been corrected and well as the disappearing chat logs.

CHAT RESPONSIVENESS
We've completely rewritten the server side alliance and global chat systems. The are now more scalable and should be far more responsive.

MULTIPLE CITIES ON ONE SQUARE
We've found and fixed the issue that could allow multiple cities to be placed on one square. This should no longer be possible.

MAIL
Mail now has "Select all" at bottom as well as top.
