Sorry to hear you were having issues. You are actually not the first with this issue. I believe it's because of whatever the server provider did, and since I didn't just do a full wipe afterwards.
That being said, when the new update comes out, I will be wiping the server fully, and hopefully you'll come back! (:

well i cant connect to the server now. i got a random disconnect last night and now when trying to join i am stuck on the "waiting for character" screen. console shows an error 'condition stillnotmet:controllable.localplayerControllableExsists==true' that justs scrolls over and over.
apparently i have corrupted file or something. admin might be able to get me in but sounds like all research will be wiped. very sad, took so long to get c4. oh well, have fun guys

Looks like the server is back up, however it looks like the map is gone but character profiles are still there. So anything you were able to craft, you can still craft. Working with server provider to see what can be done, but probably nothing.

I have posted a discussion about the issue! I am doing everything I can to get the server back online, however it seems to be out of my hands. After talking with them, this does not seem like a DDOS attack, their data center in the US is just experiencing some problems. Either way, the server is still down. There will not be a wipe unless the server's contents get wiped by playrust.eu. At this point, it's out of my hands. I cannot wait until I can run my own server through my own provider (which is awesome), and stop going through sketchy server providers who don't respond as quickly as a i like and with only vague details.

Its serverside issue, it will be back

sirs i am also sad about this :(

where is server boys?

Dat devildog bahahaha

Yes it is!

is the server up yet?

is the server based in US central?

I am currently in the middle of setting up a new server with DDOS protection through playrust.eu. It will take under 24 hours. I am sorry for the inconvenience, and I hope that everyone is willing to wait/follow us to our new home.
