Frequently asked questions
How long does Rob Run maintenance take?
Use the end time in the specific announcement if Kefir gives one. The in-game list is useful after a restart with an open-ended window.
What if the server says maintenance but there is no fresh post?
Restart Steam, check for an update and compare what friends on the same server see.
Do I need to change regions after a restart?
Check your usual server first. If it returns, you can try to rejoin it before choosing a different world.
Where can I see older maintenance notices?
