Greeting Intrepid test server explorers,

As announced in this lovely dev blog by CCP Fozzie, Team Five 0 are adding 101 new wormhole systems to New Eden!

Our Singularity test server has recently been updated with the new systems, and we encourage you all to get involved in exploring this new frontier before it hits Tranquility, and as always, trying your very best to break everything Smile

To allow you guys to make the most of this time, we're seeding the market in all the stations, and setting up the movebot to move you directly to Thera. The steps to do this are as follows:

1. Join 'movemethera' chat channel
2. Type 'moveme'
3. Enjoy your free trip to the new frontier

Once there feel free to make yourself at home in one of the four available stations, which allow all the usual services you would expect (Barring capital construction), we do ask however that you follow a couple of simple rules.

Thera Rules
- No capital ships (Except freighters)
- No anchorable Bubbles (HIC and Interdictor bubbles are permitted)
(Any capitals or bubbles found in Thera will be mercilessly murdered by the space police)

Aside for these two rules anything else goes. We want to keep Thera as close to its Tranquility experience as possible. However please bear in mind that this is a test server, so reign in your griefing tendencies appropriately. We reserve the right to change these rules should things get out of control.

As always, I will update this thread with a list of reported issues.

Known/Reported Issues
- The SoE Industrial station has a kick out undock (For particularly fast ships)
- Low Shader Settings can cause issues with the Station Models (Making them appear bright red)

only 4 stations are you kidding me? So only 4 entities will have control and there will be so much bubbling station camps it will be a broken system. If you really want it to work the way you envisioned it to you'll need to add like 20 stations and all of them 300au apart with several planets in between. You'll also need to bar all bubbles including dictor bubbles from the system.

This system sounds like fun. On a side note it could almost become a new area for mass testing things.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

Your own corp lives in fdz station 1 together with pizza this very day. So saying its impossible is pretty dumb, just need to be ready for fights that might happen on the undock or leave the undock if you dont like station games.

PVP centered wormhole too hardcore for your baby carebear style?

Busting out of a station with no anchorable bubbles shouldnt be hard at all and i seriously doubt any corps big enough to provide 24/7 camping is going to move into thera.

Set a timer and read a book. I'm sure that's how real deep space pilots would handle a long FTL trip.

Could you please remove the Guests tab from the stations?
Seeing as how Thera is actually a wormhole environment with no local the Guests Tab in stations really ruins this.
Gone with the mystery of no local, put 4 toons in each station and add the odd 50-500 (guestimate) people in space and there is your local. Please remove this feature, I really feel like it removes part of the wormhole feel that one would expect in Thera.

The rest is near flawless =)

Also K-Space connections to Thera have the target line saying: [no label: None]
Instead of something like : This wormhole seems to lead into null security space.

Keep up the good job and please, please remove the Guests tab.
