Worlds

There are currently five worlds in the game. Each world runs separately from the others on its own server. Most game functions are limited to a single world. On the cash market, many transactions are possible between countries in different worlds. Each world has 10 continents with 3100 to 6400 countries per world.

The worlds look differently and do not resemble any areas in the real world.

Three of the five worlds run one game month in 8 hours. Kebir Blue runs four game months per 24 hours while Little Upsilon, the youngest world, runs six game months each day. The processing of the countries and their corporations with trading running at the same time, starts generally at about 5.20AM, 12.20PM and 7.20PM EST. Countries are processed one by one and all their corporations are evaluated and processed at the same time. The processing schedule may however differ depending on system load and maintenance activities.

Not all the countries can be process at the same time and depending on their location in the database they might run early in the process or much later. There are no advantages or disadvantages linked to the position in the database.

Trading runs alternately with the processing of the country data. The trading process handles one product at a time. It reads all the requests and offers for one product, matches them depending on the way they have been offered (Market price fixed price etc) and executes the matched trades immediately. During this month process, each product is traded 6 to 8 times. Each trade session processes the products that are available on the market at that point in time.

A trading session for a single product runs for 1 to 100 seconds depending on the number of product offers and product requests waiting for that specific product. Contracts are processed once per game month, this happens at the first trading session for the product.
