Crossfire Atlas News:
August 11, 2022
- New page, Map Reset Groups
- Instead of a multiple level map resetting at various times based on activity, the entire map set will reset at the same time when left idle for (typically) 2-hours
- This should reduce the times where, for instance, a player is on level 3 of a map and gets trapped there because level 2 has reset and now doors are locked or closed, etc.
- Updated map images
