PACK2 GAME SERVERS
CONAN SPECIFIC RULES
A.) Auto-decay
The PACK2 uses enhanced rates (30 RL Days), for all structures and thralls/pets. This means that if nobody in your tribe logs into the game every 15 - 20 days, your structures and thralls/pets may disappear. In general, higher-tier structures will last longer than lower-tier structures
It is the responsibility of the Player to make sure they refresh all timers on the servers they play on. You must RENDER the items to actually prevent the decay of the item.
All Servers are "SWEPT" (our term for the mod/Admin cleaning) in a rough schedule of every six weeks. Keeping our maps mostly clean and ready for new players.
Please follow the above rules as we use a Admin's Heatmap to remove those clans that show no activity for 30 days or more.
B.) Building Restrictions

(1) MAIN BASE - a maximum of 80x80x24 Building tiles per clan, or solo player.
(2) OUTPOSTS: a maximum of 30x30x24 per clan, or solo player.
