Chat was also completely overhauled for this release, so it should work for everyone.

We’ve added a SCUGS indicator on the map PDA. It will flash yellow when connecting and stay solid green if your survivors have a good connection to SCUGS. If green it means that the map is auto-refreshing and you don’t need to refresh. If red or yellow, please give it some time before reporting it as a bug.

In an effort to make the extra two servers pay for themselves, I’ve added Amazon affiliate links on the left. We probably won’t make much from these but if you’re considering a book or DVD anyway, please consider buying through the WotLD link. All links are hand-picked and are titles I’ve enjoyed myself. You might find something you like.

There’s also going to be a bug-fixing release going out tonight or tomorrow morning, so I’ll add the details of that separately when it goes out.

Thanks for your patience with the server problems we had last week. Good luck out there!
