Title: Harbor RP restart timeset
Post by: Sprite Can on October 28, 2012, 01:09:25 AM: We should have a set time to when the server restarts to save people in-game money, possible lag, and trouble for admins.

Also how long would the reswt intervals be 12 hours?

Lowest is still an average of 20 in each server

However, since HRP is never empty, this best would be to have it restart at a specific time and have the server notify the in game players.
