The servers are being renamed and swapped
#7
Wire, would it be possible to reword the ingame notice a bit? The way it's worded now would indicate that if you used to play on RP1, you would want to play on Goonstation Classic 1: Heisenbee, as it states "Goonstation Roleplay will become Goonstation Classic 1: Heisenbee". The average user doesn't understand/care about port numbers but rather the experience they are used to; in essence, what we consider to be the RP1 experience now is going to become Goonstation Roleplay 3: Morty while what users currently use as Main Overflow is going to become Goonstation Classic 2: Bombini, etc.

I understand the line following it clarifies somewhat, but without visiting this thread, they may not understand that they will quite literally need to search the server list on the 31st to try to find their correct server, as the normal "Replay Last" button will not bring them to the server they expect.

Thanks!

Edit: There's also a concern that casual players that only play SS13 occasionally may not see the current ingame notice and might also inadvertently join a different server post-Jan 31st. Another smaller notice for a few weeks after the change goes live might be useful as well.

Appreciate it!
