Ocean Of Stars - A highly modded dedicated server running beta!

Bad_Idea · February 25, 2017

Welcome, welcome:

Ocean Of Stars is a rather small server previously open only to me and a couple of friends. After getting tired of the low population at all times we (with we i mean me, the server owner) decided to open it up to the public in an attempt at getting some extra players.

So that's where you come in.

The server is running on insane difficulty with collision damage set to 0.5. It is reasonably hardy and will provide a good lag-free experience.

Brief list of rules:

1. Don't be a twat - No, really, treat others well and don't start undue drama.

2. English please! - Keep it to english in the game chat.

3. Don't minge around for no reason - This ties into rule number 1. Killing eachother is well and good, but do keep it reasonable. Don't just stomp on players with smaller ships than yours for the heck of it.

4. Don't exploit - Should you find some sort of abuseable exploit you are not to use it, this leads to an immediate ban and removal of player data.

5. No lagging - Due to how the game handles bad pings one person with a terrible ping is enough to pull everyone else down. Should you knowingly have a very bad ping and still play you will be asked to leave until it is fixed, should you stay/come back with said terrible ping you will be banned.

Mods:

We run a number of mods which can be found preinstalled here: https://mega.nz/#!DghX0BpY!XcwEpOtVesT3govhYNabskeDeQeb7MvmGZs9KwZco34
