Server

For the character, see Server (character).

A server is the software that deals with the packets of the game, hosting the users and allowing them to interface with each other.

The main purpose of the different servers is to reduce congestion, and to offer a place for same-speaking players to gather. Currently, all servers are physically located in France by the same hosting provider.

Server restart

Server restarts usually happen minutes before a game update. Most of the server restarts are to add new content to the game or make changes to the game, but sometimes servers are restarted to reduce overall server load and lag.

Servers usually lag when there are too many people playing. If there is lag on the servers' end, disconnect from the game and relaunch it after a couple of minutes.

Server restarts generally cause confusion in-game. People either start spamming or noticeably panic whenever they see the restart message, which generally displays as follows:

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 2 minutes.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 60 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 30 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 20 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 10 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 9 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 8 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 7 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 6 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 5 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 4 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 3 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 2 seconds.

• [SERVER] The server will restart in 1 seconds.

Posts on Discord announcing the server restart are common.

Server restarts can be initiated by either an administrator or by moderators.

The servers restart automatically every Monday, Thursday and Saturday at 07:00 GMT.
