@james

Allow locked private worlds to register their new server location after migrating between servers

Wait what’s this? People can move their planets from one region to another?

Also I guess they patched your find @ovis

@DKPuncherello

People can move their planets from one region to another?

Between servers within the same region.

I think that was related to this change:

@james

When worlds expire and they’re taken offline it leaves a gap for another world to fill. We will normally spawn new private worlds into these slots. But sometimes if there are many gaps it’s more efficient to move the remaining active worlds onto other servers to fill their gaps. (This is the Boundless version of defragging the entire universe.)

[james]

Update OP with detail of the recent hotfix.

@james

Release 248.4:

Bug fixes:

• Fix an issue where crafting XP would not be rewarded to characters that have performed crafts inside a beacon where they did not have ownership or villager privileges. This allows players to still get XP if their permissions are revoked after crafting and if specifically granted on machines via Advanced Locks.

[james]

Released on PC. Will release on PS4 once the update has passed PlayStation QA.

@james

Release 248.5:

Bug fixes:

• Fix incorrect unpacking of strings where dataviews are above 64k in size. This has been causing client crashes for large guilds.

NOTE: This fix has been published on PC. The PS4 version has not completed PlayStation QA. It will be published once ready.
