As said in the last news, we still have some issues. :(.
Thats not a DDOS.
Dev on the breach, it may take some time (no ETA), less than days, more than hours.

As Yaliskah said, it's not a DDoS related. Initial reports indicate to stack overflow errors which cause the server to reboot.

We're looking into it and hopefully will be able to identify the cause, and then improve stability.


For now, if the server crashes, assume the default stance. Wait several minutes and try connecting again.

It's not a DDoS. It's a stack overflow, and it seems to be related to a particular cell in the world, so when someone activates that cell, the overflow is triggered, and when that person relogs, the overflow is triggered again.

I'm looking into it.

I'll try to simplify. A computer program has two main forms of storage, the stack and the heap. The stack can be considered, very simplistically, as the memory used by the program to run itself. If it fills up, which it should never do in the normal execution of a program, it overflows. This condition causes the program to terminate immediately.

It usually happens if there's an infinite recursion - simplistically, pieces of code that invoke each other over and over until the stack is full of the data which corresponds to each individual piece of code.
