Why did the last world end?

[Kahryl]

Haven't played in 6 months, just noticed that a new world has come out in that time. Why did the last world end?

Any significant new features?

Is the teleport-to-home button going to go away or at least have restrictions anytime in the future? The main reason I quit is I didn't like how the rational thing to do when meeting a stranger was to lol-homesafe.

Map corruption and data loss was the cause for World 5 to end I think?

Yeah. The W5 map was already corrupted, and we had to play with chunks of the map missing. More map data was lost and we moved on to W6.

Does it cancel if the other guy attacks you?

[bmjclark]

Yup

[Kahryl]

Oooh. 5 seconds is a really short time. But it may just be enough..

Hmm. What if I'm on a boat and I meet someone on a boat and he starts to hearth. Can I shoot him in the face? I can't remember.

And does anyone have a link to a topic or post explaining this change?
