Dear Settlers,
We are very happy to inform you of a major change:
No more weekly maintenance
From now on there won't be weekly downtimes anymore!
The good old worker has retired and will only return everynow and then for special scripts and game updates.
Several fix scripts will run every day around 1am GMT during runtime instead of one time a week during the maintenance.
New game deployment time
There will also be new time frames during which the game will be updated. The exact times will still be posted in an update announcement 1 day before, but please keep in mind that updates will be deployed around 7:00 - 11:00 GMT
We hope you'll enjoy the maintenance-free times!
