In the past, all online games used to go through a server in Germany. This sometimes created latency problems for players outside of Europe. To solve this problem I got two additional servers, one for players in Asia, located in Hong Kong and another for players in the US, located in New York.

You need to use version 3.7.7 of the game or above to use these new servers. The game host selects which one to use and guests will automatically get routed.

If you had connectivity issues before please try it out and leave a comment whether it's fixed now. Maintaining 3 different servers takes some effort, so I want to make sure it's worth it.

Have fun playing!

Update (Dec 6th). Version 3.7.8 is online:

- fixed bug with lightning based weapons being able to go through metal shields even when you did non-lightning attack

- fixed bug when item pickup info would show for dead players

- the old EU server for online games is being shut down by the end of this week. Make sure you update to version 3.7.8. if you want to play online games!
