Can we have a statement about what will happen to the various OP declarations that are active?

Maybe this will answer your concern (quoted from this Q&A):sprite wrote:Can we have a statement about what will happen to the various OP declarations that are active?

Q&A wrote:A little calculation needs to be done here, which is not very easy to explain...
Bring forward the time of the beginning of the attack stage (or defense stage, which lasts 2 hours) of the Outpost by 3 hours. You then obtain a "theoretical" attack stage of 5 hours instead of 2.
If during this five-hour period the server is down at some point, then the war will be cancelled and automatically refund.
You will have to return to the Outpost to declare war again.
I am now going to give you a concrete example. Suppose the server stays down from 11 to 11:50 am.
The attack stage of your outpost begins at 10, and therefore ends at 12. Bring forward the beginning of this stage by 3 hours. You obtain the following period for the attack stage: [7; 12].
The server's closure is here included in this period of time. So the war over this Outpost will be cancelled.
Make the test with an OP whose attack stage begins at 3 pm: the period is thus [12; 5 pm].
In my example the server is down until 11.50. Therefore its closure is not included in the period; the attack stage will take place at 3 pm.
This 3-hour interval is some kind of a "safety rule" implemented to prevent battle stages from possibly taking place without anybody able to participate (it is the case when the server is locked after the patch, i.e. open but you are not able to log in).
So if I understood correctly, if the attack (ie when the guards start spawning) is within 3 hours after the server "up" time (in this case 3pm), it is cancelled.. otherwise its left alone? If I got that right then its very helpfulMarjo wrote:Maybe this will answer your concern (quoted from this Q&A):

Has there been any compromise regarding the servers already?soulsnatcher wrote:Edited now thanks. Thought that sounded like too much of an easy day for me.
