<![CDATA[Shard3 is struggling in the evening, third day in a row]]>Suggestions from Slack indicates that this may be a consequence of the take-out a few days back.

Is something not quite back to normal yet?

@artch, any thoughts?

It is really quite a massive slowdown seemingly all of a sudden. Many times I think my script has an error because it goes 10+ seconds without anything moving.

I dont mind long, slow, drawn out games, but there is a line where it gets frustratingly slow, and we crossed that days ago 😞 I think it was only 3-4 seconds per tick when I started playing a few weeks ago.

anything we as players can do to help the devs get it back to normal?

As a noob, I wouldnt be averse to... ahem... a complete restart 😄 a fresh shard 3 at 2-3 seconds per tick? (im only half joking, i know many players would be quite upset)

Either way, I just hope it gets fixed.

Random suggestion, isnt there some way that players could donate processing power to the server from their own computers? 12+ hours a day my pc is idle, id be happy to help process the game to see faster tick times. Like a distributed processing sort of setup. I know thats probably a huge undertaking code wise and maybe not even feasible but I couldnt help throw the idea out there.

We're working together with the staff of our hoster to identify and solve this issue as soon as possible.
