FRS AND GCW ZONE UPDATE

FRS and GCW Zone Update
SWGEmu Team
FRS and GCW Zone Update
- FRS Season Change -
Why
After a lengthy investigation conducted by Staff into allegations of kill
trading and fight clubbing, we have decided to implement a method for a
"seasonal" reset of the Force Ranking System. As we have stated before, the
FRS is a broken system and was not developed for longevity in live SWG. With
our project development on the brink of 1.0 completion, we looked for a
method to deal with some of the issues found during our investigations. In
addition to the FRS seasonal reset implementation, we increased logging for
FRS fights, added additional combat statistics. We also added XP trading
prevention checks and tools for our CSR's to allow them to banish offending
Jedi from accessing the FRS system. Banished players will be unable to
achieve any rank greater than Jedi Padawan.
We have taken these temporary measures to avoid having to deal with a
complete FRS overhaul at this time. This allows us to continue moving forward
on development and planning for what's next, while allowing players to still
enjoy ranking up in FRS on a seasonal basis. Freeing staff up from constant
FRS management will allow us to focus on the future of pre-CU and beyond.
What does this mean?
Every player that is a current member of the Force Ranking System, upon the
change of the season, will be set to Rank 0 and have their FRS Experience
cleared. When this happens FRS players will receive an email so they know the
season has changed. This puts all FRS members back onto level footing and
allows them to start progression up the ranks again. We decided to couple
this with the release of the GCW Zone, giving players a new place to fight
the Galactic Civil War and test out new content ideas the team has for
potential future use in a post 1.0+ server. The FRS Seasons are planned to be
reset on a 6 month interval.
When
In the coming weeks, both the above FRS changes and the GCW Zone will be
active on Finalizer. Please keep an eye out in the Update Notes Pop-up, the
Newsnet Terminals and the Finalizer Updates Forum.
- Opening of the GCW Zone -
Original GCW Zone Development Thread.
Where
-3050, 457 Lok
How do you access the Zone?
Players are able to access the zone on foot/speeder and by faction portals,
locations listed below. The portals have certain restrictions on them to
prevent players from attempting to use them as a means of escape. The portals
listed in the factionally aligned cities are GCW Banners with a special
radial menu option. They will be found in a guard tower behind each listed
Starport. Only members of that faction will be able to enter the guard tower
and will be required to be out of combat and not under the duress of a GCW or
PvP TEF. This also applies to the exit portal areas inside the GCW Zone.
Players will not be able to use them as a quick means to escape the zone.
They must be out of combat and again, not have a GCW or PvP TEF. Players
attempting to enter the portal area of the opposite faction will be damaged
and kicked back.
Imperial Portal - Bestine, Tatooine - Behind Starport
Rebel Portal - Moenia, Naboo - Behind Starport
Players that are aligned to a faction will be given a system message warning
before crossing into the zone. Players that continue into the PvP Zone will
have any active faction pets stored and they will be set to Overt status. The
zone will prevent players calling faction pets while they are inside the
boundary. Exiting the zone does not clear a player's Overt status, they will
need to visit a faction recruiter in order to return to Covert stats.
What will players find in the zone?
With the introduction of this zone we are also introducing a new GCW PvP
Token. This token is available through a number of actions (see below), can
be traded between players, and used to redeem services in the GCW Zone and
reward items. These tokens will auto stack with other tokens when transferred
into a bag or inventory and have a max stack size of 20 count per stack.
* Killing a Player: If a player kills a player of the opposite faction in
the Zone they will receive a GCW PvP Token. There is a cooldown of 4 hours
on each player that will prevent them from rewarding another GCW PvP Token
from their death.
* Faction Requisition Terminals: Requires players to be GCW rank of 10
(Second Lieutenant) or higher. Use of the terminal will cost GCW PvP
Tokens as well as factions standing, each request type has a cooldown.
* Airstrikes: The GCW zone suffers from random airstrikes from each faction,
players caught in an airstrike will be damaged.
* Drop Ships: Dropships from each faction will randomly land outside the
main fenced area of the GCW Zone and patrol in those areas. These will
vary in size and strength.
* Cloning: There will be NO cloning options in the GCW zone. Players will
need to store their clone data prior to entering the zone.
* Buffs: There are no buffs provided in the zone other than what players can
do through normal game mechanics.
Capture Points
Each faction has the following Capture Points: Power Station, Control Point,
Main Base
* Capture Point terminals spawn within the fenced area of the GCW Zone.
* Each faction has 3 capture point locations.
* There is a delay of 30 minutes after the server comes online and then the
capture point terminals are scheduled to spawn in 4 hours.
* A 30 minute pre-warning will be in the PvpBroadcast Channel stating that
the terminals will be spawning.
* Capture point terminals will stay active for 3 hours once they are
spawned.
* At the end of the Capture Point active period the terminals will be
despawned and the next active period will be scheduled 3 hours and 45
minutes from that time. This allows for the time to gradually shift for
players of all time zones.
* One hour, thirty minute and fifteen minute warnings will be broadcast in
the PvpBroadcasts Chat Channel for the end of a Capture Point Period.
* In order for terminals to be captured there is a minimum requirement of 5
players of each faction in the zone AND a minimum of 2 defending factional
players must be killed before they can begin capturing points.
* Players must be the factional rank of Colonel in order to access the
capture point terminals.
* Main base capture point can only be captured if the attacking faction has
control of either the Control Point or Power Station of the defending
faction.
* It takes 5 minutes to capture a point and the faction member cannot be in
combat at the time of initiating the capture countdown.
* Defending faction members have the ability to interrupt the capture
process, but must be out of combat to do so.
* Points can be recaptured by defending faction members, this takes
approximately 4 minutes and also requires the player to be out of combat
when initiating the recapture.
* Attacking players have the ability to break the recapture countdown.
Capture Point Period Score Calculation
* Capture Points controlled by the opposite faction have a value of 20
points, calculated at the end of the active period.
* Every 10 kills adds one point to the score.
* Tokens are only awarded to the winning faction of the Capture Point Period
if the difference between the two factions' scores is more than 20.
* Four GCW PvP Tokens and Faction Points are awarded to the winning side.
* In order for a player to be eligible for the reward they must have done
one of the following: Killed at least one opposite faction player,
captured a point, interrupted a point being captured or recaptured a
point.
* Players must also be within 300m of the center of the zone to receive the
award at the time of the active period ending.
* Players must be online to receive their reward.
* Scores will be output into the PvpBroadcast channel.
Rewards
All item rewards are in Schematic form and require players to seek out a
crafter to obtain their reward item. The following items are available to
purchase at the cost of faction standing and GCW PvP Tokens. All of the armor
added is equivalent to Composite armor and requires the same components to
craft. All schematics are single use, with the exception of the GCW City
Banners. The only schematic that is manufacturable is the PSG Schematic.
* Bunker House Schematic
* Enhanced Bounty Hunter Armor (Neutral)
* Kashyyykian Black Mountain Special Armor (Neutral)
* Strengthened Ithorian Guardian Armor (Neutral)
* Reinforced Stormtrooper Armor (Imperial)
* Augmented Rebel Marine Armor (Rebel)
* Kyber Enhanced Personal Shield Generator
* Rebel and Imperial City Decoration Banners
All of the above listed armors allow for color adjustment in the same method
as composite armor. The armor colorization is restricted to the available
colors from the original objects template.

Farwell to a Friend
It is with great sadness that we have to inform the community that one of our
own has passed. Pyrrhus, Event Coordinator Intern, passed away in 2022 after
a long battle with illness. He spent a lot of time enjoying the game, was
passionate and a great source of ideas while facing the battle of his life.
He will always be remembered, and we have honored him in our memorial amongst
the other members of staff who have passed away.
You can visit a remembrance of Pyrrhus, as well as many others at the SWGEmu
Memorial.
Location
4120, 3210 Naboo
May the force be with you Pyrrhus, always.

SWGEmu and Service Provider Change
11/1/2022
The SWGEmu Team
Many of you know we moved our servers in 2017 to packet.net's bare metal
servers. Through a gracious arrangement with packet.net, we were able to
secure multi-year discounted prices that gave us the considerable resources
we needed to run our services. In March 2020, Equinix acquired packet.net and
continued to honor our contract. However, as they look to optimize their data
center footprint, they have decided to shut down packet.net's old data center
that hosts our services. They have given their customers until 30 November
2022 to shut down all servers in the old data centers.
We are looking into solutions where we can get bare metal hosts or one of the
top three public cloud providers near the same geolocation as our current
servers (EWR - New Jersey). The requirements for our servers are quite high
compared to basic shared hosting, while our latency and reliability
requirements go beyond many “cheap server” providers. Our current systems
have 256G or RAM, Intel CPUs with 48 Threads, and 960G of mirrored SSD/NVME
storage combined with 10Gbs access to the internet with 4TB of outbound
transfer. Our previous deal with packet.net provided all this for about
$1,200.00 USD/month.
The publicly listed cost for equivalent servers in the new Equinix data
centers is about 2.7 times more expensive than our current monthly costs.
Unfortunately, our current donations will not support those costs, so we need
to optimize our services. To this end, we will be running an event to bring
Basilisk to a final conclusion, and we will be testing other service
providers to find a price/quality match that will meet our needs going
forward.
This move is complicated; most people don't know how complex our environment
is. We have 35 services running, including registration, forums, archives,
support portal, servers for Login, Nova, TC-Prime, Finalizer, Basilisk,
DevOps: Jenkins, Gerrit, and build tools. These are all managed in a
Kubernetes cluster across the worker nodes.
While we will do our best to make the move painless for the community, it's
important to remember we are a 100% volunteer org, and our team members have
day jobs, family, friends, and other commitments outside the project.
In the coming days, the EC team will announce an event to end Basilisk so we
can avoid moving more than 650Gigs of disk usage, 128G of ram usage, and many
Terabytes of backups. This is the first in several steps we will take to
simplify our environment to optimize for cost and reduce the time needed to
move our services to new hosting.
When we are ready to cut-over Finalizer, we will post a notice on the actual
date of the move both on the forums and in-game. We will move other services
incrementally as we progress to the new environment, hopefully with minimal
disruption.
Thank You,

Real Life Monetary trades - September 2020
Staff would just like to give a friendly reminder to our community that
following ALL our TOS is a requirement to be able to use our service. Aside
from the act of donating to the project (thank you!), spending real money on
third party websites for in-game benefit is strictly forbidden. Today we have
banned 65 accounts for breaking this section of our TOS. We do not enjoy
removing people from our project, but violations like this endanger the
project and force us to act.
Our TOS say:
1.9. On SWGEmu Servers, all accounts and characters used for financial gain
will be deleted/banned. It is forbidden to use your account for:
* 1.9.1. Soliciting real life monetary trades.
* 1.9.2. Purchasing of in-game credits or items for real life currency.
* 1.9.3. Exchange of in-game items/credits for real life items.
* 1.9.4. Exchange of in-game items/credits for items/currency from other
games.
Selling your account/sharing account
Selling your account will fall under the same rules. If we find that an
account has changed owner, it will be banned.
Letting others borrow your account also falls under the rule below:
1.5. Do not share accounts. The rule includes children as well, if you have a
child in your home they are not allowed to share accounts as they must each
have their own regardless of age. Any account banned for another user's
actions will not be unbanned at the request of the owner.
1.6. Any and all stolen and/or compromised accounts that are reported to
SWGEmu Staff may be *suspended* in order to conduct an investigation. On the
SWGEmu Servers, characters, credits, buildings, structures, or items will not
restored or replaced under any circumstances.

The SWGEmu Support Team
Our support team needs to be strengthened and we are searching for one or
more interns that we can train to become CSRs to help our community in
support about account and in-game issues.
Some of the tasks that our CSRs handle are:
* Approving multiple account applications
* In-game issues like getting people unstuck or help them been able to log
in a character
* investigate reports about rule breaking on our servers
* Help with Events and setting them up and/or execute them
The work is done in two systems. We have a live support, where you can talk
directly to players with issues, or we have a ticket system where you will
answer the ticket, trying to solve the issue or answering questions about
policies.
Please follow this link if you are interested in contributing some of your
time to the project and the community.
