now I was thinking, the auto-cosmetic download and possible bloating of servers, could be a big issues especially for console players that have limited mod storage capabilities (especially PS5)

as always, I will ask to fix ASE events, like Grove Street Games did for the Switch version.

it's called caching system. and no, ue assets aren't executable so no viruses (except if they didn't fix the loophole in ASE mods, they can add content allowing to bypass the server admin whitelist ).

Seems like a threading/context switch issue of the server (ie: the server machine is having threading issue, like when hosting multiple servers with the OS scheduler still set to favour the foreground application). It may be related also to flyer speed levelling setting or a related mod.

In loving memory of Classic servers and Snail Game USA management

well for ASE numbers.. how many official server were for each console vendor and how many on PC? IIRC PC version had far more. Even if on PC unofficial had Steam workshop mods.

ASA servers aren't going bad at all to be honest, but those are Steam + PS5 + XBOX X|S. And this despite all the cross platforms and server issues. Considering this, seems like ASA is a lot more played on console and far less on PC, while ASE had a huge PC player base. Probably the hardware requirements on PC didn't help too..

Interesting steam numbers (so not including epic for ASE, and console players for ASA) https://steamcharts.com/cmp/346110,2399830#3m comparing with battlemetrics (that cannot read EPIC players in ASE but reads the amount of all platform in ASA), console versions seem fine.. not so fine the Steam version :V

restore events on ASE

you are in the wrong forum, this is ASE small poopty remains forums.

Wish for 2024: all events restored in ASE

Please, in 2024 take some minutes to restore all other ASE events world override settings as Grove Street Games did in the Switch version BTW, winter wonderland fully works on ASE too (the only fully working event).

wasn't primitive plus going open source for ASE since no longer fixed? :V (not a huge deal compared to fixing events on ASE :V)

please restore events override settings for ASE... yes we know winter wonderland in ASE is fully working. just restore the other for 2024 ok? it's just about override settings assets (you did that in the switch version!) 😕
