Over the past few days, I have been making important changes to the internal server structure to improve the overall performance of Battle for Embolia.
Many of these changes are not directly visible in the game, but they are necessary to reduce freezes, improve response times, and allow the server to handle multiple players and simultaneous actions more efficiently.
I am still working, testing, and fixing different systems. Since these are major structural changes, unexpected issues may appear during the process, but every problem found helps build a more stable foundation for the future of the game.
My goal is to make Battle for Embolia run better with every update, especially during situations involving many players, combat, map changes, and multiple operations happening at the same time.
Thank you to everyone who continues playing, reporting bugs, and being patient while I keep improving the server.
