Outer Rim Space Engineers

Hi guys. As specified in the /motd, I'm planning on a soft wipe to hopefully re-invigorate the server. It's been the usual lifecycle of a SE server, slow to start, very busy for a couple of weeks, then a bit of a drop off in interest as the big projects have been completed. I'm hoping that by squeezing the playing area down in the hope of more player interaction, and making any other changes that I think are workable that players suggest, there'll be a little more to it.
Everyone's welcome to have a say, invite anyone you like. Obviously at the end of the day not everything will happen as keeping server simspeed high is my priority, but hopefully it'll move in the right direction.
Oh, by soft wipe I mean changing the map but allowing people to bring a ship or station across. Won't be open slather but will be fair.
Cheers, Jon.
