Happy New Year from us all at SAES. Thanks for being part of the community, especially those who have been in a position to help keep us running, it's really appreciated. I have a few things left to work on in the next few days in regards to the website, but once that's complete, I will start working my way through the suggestions forum and will look at implementing changes you guys want (and need). Unfortunately polls did not transfer with the migration, so please setup new polls and spread the word. Cheers 👍 View full article

I will be hosting a power hour tomorrow (Thursday 29th Dec) from 7pm (19:00 GMT/Server Time) and will be hosting a few other events afterwards in which you can win various rewards. I will ping everyone again on discord, 10 mins before it starts as a reminder. I hope to see you there. P.S. A special thanks goes to @Yannick for sponsoring the event. https://discord.gg/saes-rpg-229936715383439361?event=1057678683818709153 View full article

Nice sig.

@Tombaa is working on it

Hello, I have recently switched our forum software back to Invision Community from NodeBB. I have not taken this decision lightly, but there are various reasons. The way the NodeBB software is setup is that we rely on "plugins" for all the additional features we use on our website. Unfortunately, none of these are maintained anymore, so it would require us to fork and maintain all the plugins we were using ourselves or pay for NodeBB for "support" to do it. I would rather we pay for software subscription than for support each time we do a software update. I have spent today migrating everything from NodeBB to Invision Community. I have managed to migrate all the users (6,000+), forum categories (300+), topics (3,100+) and posts (320,000+) but I was unable to migrate groups or profile covers/photos. You might need to reset your password before you can login. I have setup our built in bug tracker so you will no longer need to submit issues via GitHub. You can request access back to your private forums as long as you are the organisation leader/hq Feel free to use the forums as normal, all the features you are used to using will be added back over the next week. You may experience a few issues with posts where coloured text, spoilers, centering of text/images or embed videos no longer work as these did not use standard markdown and was unable to be converted to WYSIWYG. If you are the owner of these post, you will need to edit and adjust accordingly. If for some reason you prefer the "light mode" (eye cancer) theme, you can select this by going to the bottom of the site, clicking "Theme" and selecting "Default". If you have any issues, please contact me on Discord. View full article

Perhaps on the back of this, we could (for those with limited hardware) at least warn pilots on the altometer who are below a certain height threshold, which can be set above the tallest trees/buildings

It should be noted that power hour functionality will change each time we host one as all the settings are togglable, so depending on who is hosting the power hour, spawn restrictions may not be disabled.

@Scorpyo has created a resource which handles and sets up a "power hour" within seconds, the events over the weekend actually served as a decent test and we are happy with the outcome, therefore we are pleased to announce that we will be hosting a number of these each month. We will ping everyone on our discord server each time a power hour will be in play Please make yourself familiar with the rules and information listed in the following topic to prevent yourself from being punished.

@Scorpyo has created a resource which handles and sets up a "power hour" within seconds, the events over the weekend actually served as a decent test and we are happy with the outcome, therefore we are pleased to announce that we will be hosting a number of these each month. We will ping everyone on our discord server each time a power hour will be in play Once it starts, you will get an in-game notification in the top bar information window and from that point, depending on how the power hour is set up by the host, you will the opportunity to use the majority of the spawns unrestricted, special vehicles will spawn around the map (such as Rhinos and Hydras) and you will receive information on how to spawn special weapons which have been activated at the time (such as Miniguns and Rocket Launchers). If you do not wish to participate, you can use the following command: /safezone This will transport you to BC outdoor cinema, which is the current designated safe zone During the power hour, some people are playing like ALL THE RULES are thrown out the window, this is NOT the case. The only changes to rules during power hour are the following: DEATHMATCHING IS ALLOWED! REVENGE KILLING IS ALLOWED! AVOIDING ARREST IS ALLOWED! SPAWN / MARKER KILLING IS NOT ALLOWED. ANYONE CAUGHT BREAKING THIS RULE WILL BE BANNED FOR THE REST OF THE HOUR! ANY BR DURING THE HOUR WILL NOT COUNT ON THE TOP DAILY LIMIT FOR GANGS! ALL OTHER SERVER RULES ARE STILL IN PLACE (as listed in F1 and HERE), so for example, if you spam the main chat with non-English or abuse the construction panel to block banks etc, expect to be punished!
