    Due to the increasing load the Powder Toy websites is taking, I have had to migrate the server software to a new host.
    Because of slight differences in the server software and operating system, there have been a few issues (That have now been resolved) but there are still a few bugs waiting to be found, The Wiki being one.

    If you find any issues with the server, please reply with details.

    Known Issues:
    Wiki does not load
    Powder Toy crashes when saving (Fixed) [Though during this period, saves may have been lost]
    Powder Toy reports a large number of saves to be corrupt (Fixed)

    One last Question. Are you paying for the hosting of this website or are you on a free plan?

    Paying. No amount of free hosting could handle the powder toy server.

    Couldn't you split the server to be held on a few different free ones? Because, I have seen this in a few games my friend made.
