I am sorry for the long down time of FB.
It is OK now. Processing cought up and it is upgraded with all other worlds.

All other worlds were down for a very short time.

The problem on FB in this case, was caused by an error we made. We completed the upgrade but did not complete part of the restart procedure.

I am very sorry about it. It should not have happened.

Eeeee OOOooo

I'm noticing you updated prices of some goods (IE Electric Power).

However, it didn't update on Fearless Blue. Did the update on FB go through or is the difference intentional? Asking b/c you talked about an error.

FB should have the same base pricing we have on all other worlds.
I was not aware of a difference but as I said before, the upgrade on FB did not execute as it should have.

We also found some small issues in other parts of the upgrade and are redoing the upgrade today.

This will fix any possible issues on FB.

Each upgrade brings some tuning in some corporations.
Changes are not very large and intended to fix problems on the market.

Elecric power cost is trending up for a long time.
The reason is mainly that relative to other costs of production and as a percentage of total cost, electric power cost was too low.
We also want to make sure that wind farms will be very profitable and make shure that their production capacity will be at a realistic level compared to traditional power stations.
Currently one oil/gas power station produced 5 times more than a windfarm with 250 large wind turbines. The level was 10 or even 15 times before.
We think that wind farms should do better.

Changes are always small and we make sure that the profitability model remains as before.
