March 17, 2023

A sudden popularity explosion forced us to take The Universe into a serious maintenance, to make sure it offers high quality gameplay and performance. Don't be shocked if a nice feature got removed. Most of them are temporary, so we can bring a better version back later on.

Thanks to the big community we were able to find a lot of bugs, which are now fixed. Our Staff Team is now 4x bigger, the community 16x.

​

Big updates:

  • The Universe is now a network of multiple protected and connected servers acting like one.

  • More than 60% of the scripts and plugins have been rewritten.

​

Minor updates:

  • Player's location is synchronized between servers.

  • Added the Beaver, Bread and Dragon Pet (based on community votes).

  • Reenabled the Dungeon and Full Moon events.

  • Rebalanced the Legendary Crate (Removed prizes: Gemstones, Experience. Added prizes: Fly Perk).

  • Removed Holo Projector.

  • Ores in Mines now instantly sell (removed /autosell and physical ore drops).

  • Removed top 3 Islands in the Spawn.

  • Removed Carl and Player Shops from Islands.

  • Added more holograms through the Prison (removed top commands /prisontop, /baltop, /hunttop, /mobtop, /fishtop, /killtop, /deathtop).

  • Cleared the Solar perk 'Unbreakable anvils'. Will be updated with a new perk in the near future.

  • Cleared the Cosmics perk '/block'. Will be updated with a new perk in the near future.

  • Renamed the Cosmics perk '/privatechest' to '/vault'.

  • Changed the prefix for Emojis from ‘\’ to ‘;’.

  • Changed the Celestial perk '7 Extra Player Shop slots' to 'Claim 2 Islands'.

  • Added /preferences.

  • You can now mention players by typing their name.

  • Added [item] and [i], which shows the handheld item in chat.
  • Added a 3 second delay for Prisoners and Lunar players.

  • Chat now prevents duplicated messages.

  • Updated Discord Bot with /link and /donator.

​

Things that work a bit differently for now, because we just wanted to open the server:

  • Hunter quest progress is not saved/synchronized between servers.

  • Particle and Pet settings are not saved/synchronized between servers.
