■We have temporarily halted the timer for the automatic reclamation of housing.

If your housing/property is currently initiated for automatic reclamation, you can lift the automatic reclamation status simply by entering or performing construction on your house.

As a note, once the automatic reclamation timer is restarted, the countdown will continue on from the point when the timer was halted.
This does not apply if your house/property no longer has a timer because the automatic reclamation status was lifted on it due to your interaction.

*Please see below forum post for details regarding the temporary halt of auto reclamation.

■We have addressed the following issue

• An issue wherein under certain conditions with the Adventurer Squadron, the server may shut down.

※Primarily there should only be up to 8 squadron members, but due to some issue, certain players may have over 9 members and when those characters speak to the Region’s “Personnel Officer”, the server may shut down. For this reason, we have addressed the issue on the character data so that certain players with over 9 squadron members will now have up to 8 members.

Since the player’s screen can only display up to 8 squadron members, we were unable to verify which members were selected by the players. Therefore, we have removed the squadron member with the lowest level from those players exceeding over 8 members.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused.
