The server has been updated with a new version of FLHook. This process moved FLHook from the vc90 compiler to the vc140 compiler. This is roughly 8 years of compiler versions.
We did not expect to see any performance increase from this as it was mostly an effort to save time in the long run, but it turns out it did. The server used to hover around 10ms load when idle and it is now at 3ms so if it holds up we should experience less server lag related problems.
Additionally, the previous version of autobuy has been completely destroyed. Instead, there is a new version of the plugin written today capable of handling FLHook items. You will now have the possibility to autobuy cloak batteries for cloaking devices and cloak disruptors. We have made additions very easy and it should be a blessing for any future addition.
Due to the radical changes in the code, your previous autobuy settings will not work anymore. You will have to enable them again on every ship. Read the full documentation about the new autobuy here: http://discoverygc.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=133591
This project has been in the works for a long time, but the most important is it is now done and we are able to move on to work on new features.
