As many of you know, earlier in the summer B.A.T. ry bought a new
server, made possible by the donations from our players. The server
is up and running, and will soon become our primary host for BatMUD,
at which time we will also announce the name of the new server.

The MUD is actually already running on the new server, and we invite
you to try it out. It can be accessed as follows:

83.145.249.156 (port 23 or 2023) or
newbat.bat.org (port 23 or 2023) <= DNS may not yet have updated.


All game data will be overwritten prior to going live, so you can
safely assume that nothing you do will have any permanent impact.

Known issues:
=============
- Intermud is not working (will be fixed when going live)
- NPC ship movement is not working (will be fixed when going live)


If you encounter other oddities, please let myself or an archwizard
know.
