I was just made aware of the server crash. I will be investigating the cause soon. Please bear with me. **Update** Sorry for the wait. Busy day. The server is now back online.

As most of you already know, Reckoning depends on donations to stay afloat. Even a small donation is greatly appreciated to help offset expensive hosting costs. Any shortfalls are covered directly by myself, or other staff members. I wanted to re-post this to stress that we depend on your support. As of writing this, we're all going through hard times with the record high inflation. I understand that trust me. We still depend on community support to keep this all going.

The test server is now up. The next patch is a ways away though because the AI changes coming in are a massive improvement, and changes are coming in everyday from SWGEmu. That said, if you want to check out the new changes with NPC behavior, its all on test now (as of the current merge). We're not in a testing phase at this point, so we're not taking bug reports at this time. This is mostly an AI preview. Once we get to a point where we're looking at a release candidate to live, we'll start active testing and taking bug reports. Patch Notes (Work in progress) Patch notes are a work in progress. We're still working on our custom changes/additions as well as constant fixes from the Emu.

I want to preface this by saying that we try to stay away from politics or world events here. That being said, I can't stay silent when another Country decides to invade another free Democratic society in a blatant land grab, while purposely killing civilians because things aren't going their way. To our Ukraine bothers and sisters, everyone in the world is watching you and your leadership. I am at awe at your resolve and your Presidents resolve in fighting the invaders. To our Russian players, keep protesting the war against Ukraine. I know as an American, I can't begin to understand protesting in a Putin controlled Russia with the threat of imprisonment or being dissapeared. Just know that the world stands with you as much as it does the Ukrainians.

Just an update on the patch. This thing is a beast, with constant updates being pushed. That said, its slow going keeping up with the Emu, but actively being worked on still. Hopefully will have more updates soon.

We're working on getting Patch 9.5 ready for testing. I'm hoping to get the test server up with the latest changes soon. The biggest changes being an entire AI overhaul from SWGEmu, as well as adding additional Reckoning specific changes. Test notes will be posted once its up for testing. Hope to get as many people as possible involved in testing.

We're still testing and monitoring server stability with Patch 9.0. So far, this patch has been very stable with very little bugs or stability issues. The server will instead restart on Thursday, November 25th @ 6AM ET to accommodate Reckoning's Thanksgiving event. Normal Tuesday restarts will resume after the event.

In order to continue to monitor server stability and performance with Patch 9.0, the server will not restart this week. Our normal weekly restart will resume next week.

Patch 9.0 has been deployed to the live server. As with any patch, please report any bugs you encounter using our support system. https://swgreckoning.com/support/ Patch notes can be found here:
