Server Maintenance [December 28, 2020]

[Kevsoft]

Age Of Empires Online Celeste Fan Project will undergo planned server maintenance on the 28th of December 2020 starting at 3:00 PM UTC (4:00 PM CET). The server will stop responding to login requests at 2:15 PM UTC (3:15 PM CET) meaning you will not be able to log on from this time. We expect the maintenance to last until 4:00 PM UTC (5:00 PM CET). The Winter Event will be activated directly after the update.

Changelog:

• Winter Event Gear crafting costs now properly scale on players' civilizations: The first three gear pieces crafted will cost one heart and have no cooldown between crafts; Then the next piece will cost two hearts and have no cooldown. After that, each piece will cost three hearts and there will be a 36 hour cooldown between each craft. These timers are tracked separately for each civilization.
• [Skirmish/PvP] Sheltered Pass: Improved the consistency of resource spawns by making sure that players start with two guaranteed hunts next to their starting Town Center and at least one Gold Deposit in the back of their bases. (in addition to their starting one)
  
• [Skirmish/PvP] Savannah: Improved the tree spawns in the map.
  
• PvP: Revert/Deactivated the reveal logic that would trigger after the TC has been destroyed. An alternative/similar solution will be implemented in the future.
• PvP-Sparta: Fixed an issue that made the global pvp quests nonfunctional
  
• Editor: Added a few more quest areas to select from
