Lag is hitting fairly often. I am guessing something is running in the background.

Just did a system software upgrade. Lag should be good now. Please check again. Had about a 5 minute downtime after software install. Please post back with updated pings.

suggestion, as usual per me,

please make alien planets harder to capture.

first come first cap (as in whoever finds planet first and has 20k figs can cap them)

looks like 1 may have taken more than 1 land..
still.. just 1 land or 3 or 4 is way to easy.

makes capping the planets based more on luck (finding them) than working (a little) first to get enough resources to take them.

Again, only my opinion to do this.
If thats how you want them... then go for it ;)

Actually finding the planets was not a matter of luck. You also have to balance the amount of resources required vs the benefit of capping them in a non-truce SZ game.

Maybe go to grimmies and get Vids SysOp script pact and a few other SysOp scripts .. one is to set Alien planets based on turn level.

I know the planets are still kinda easy to take .. but way harder then what I've just heard.

just my 2ยข

As a guess the server is in the midwest so 4 AM is 5 AM EST. I believe 4 AM is the default setting TWGS uses for some bizarre reason. Midnight server time is a better setting and should have been the default, but it isn't.
