Reset / New Round #4

Hi all,

this round #3 will end at the end of this month.

On 11/01/2005 at 00:05h CET we will reset the game.
Therefore you won't be able to login for a short period of time.

After this reset, there won't be any WUs (worldupdates aka Ticks) until 12:00h CET 11/01/2005.

So you can start up your company and build up your production lines without missing the start of this round.

At 12:00h CET we will start the first WU.
After this, there will be a WU every hour, like before.

Some additional information:
While resetting you will be set to the time you registered an account.
You will start with the first 2.500.000.
But, all your research in quality of products will be saved, so that you won't loose these research.

Good luck
Sascha

Because of changes in our database we will reschedule the official first worldupdate:

The reset won't be rescheduled.

But the first WU (WorldUpdate) will be rescheduled to 18h CET on 11/01/2005.

You will be able to login after reset, but there will be no WorldUpdates until 18h.

Because of some changes in our database, information about products and buildings will be inconsistent until the first WU.
Building costs and costs to knock down a building won't be affected by this changes.

Our changes in our database are ready.

Therefore the scheduled start of the fist WU at 18h CET won't be rescheduled.

Here are the changes:

- Now, all stores have maintenance costs like all other buldings in IT. Because of testing purpose these costs are low, at this time. You can view these costs like the costs of all other buildings in the building-view (visit).

- The phase of testing of our InGame-Communication-System is accomplished. This system will now run 24 hours a day like the GameServer.
To use this system you need a JVM like SUN JAVA (JRE or JSE) 1.4.x and a Java-compilant browser.

- The main-changes you can find at all products which can be sold in stores.
All normal selling prices were changed. Some were increased others decreased.
Prices of products which are only produced once a year and products which consists of such raw-materials were increased.
Therefore all prices which were normal in last version aren't the same in this version.

To aid players to select good prices in their stores, all currently builded stores were updated to the correct new prices if their old prices were much higher than the new one.
