Update September 15th: I’ve successfully moved the original update server without losing its key. I will no longer be taking the update server in question out of service (thanks goes out to Exrems Brock for the info needed to accomplish this).
This is a notice to let everyone know that Union Micro is moving to land on a private island and will be decomissioning our original elevator update server. So, you need to get your updates while you still can! Luckily, our newest update server will work after the switch so once you update everything, you should be good to go. We’re still setup in Pigra but are in the process of creating a new build. Feel free to drop by and check it out in-progress in the NW part of the ‘Ruwart’ region.
If you’ve updated your elevators since August 30th you should be fine. Otherwise, your parts will be checking for updates from a server that no longer exists. If you run into this issue, just send me a message detailing which parts you need updated and I will send you an update manually after verifying your purchase.
This has to be the biggest and best update I’ve done on the elevators to-date! Basically, the car is now capable of downloading floor coordinates from doors, it has a monitor to reset itself if needed, you can define admins, there is an event log, and there is also a maintenance mode.
The builders kit allows builders to include placeholders with their builds that users can then use to rez their elevators. At the click of a button their objects will rez out of the box and automatically position themselves where they need to go.
On a somewhat unrelated note, Union Micro now has a small presence at the Tech Expo. Come check it out!
