It can't actually.

Orbital servers are machines that are around the globe that are "orbiting" our main server. The basic reason for this is so the load on the one server can be spread across multiple servers on high-speed broadband Internet connections. When you connect to XLink Kai, you are attached to the orbital server that has the fastest response. All the servers work together and create a mesh, just like how the Internet works.

The orbital servers handle almost all of the work, including handling chat messages and user lists. We're always looking for more orbital servers, as the more we can bring online, the better the load can be evenly distributed amongst orbitals.

But yeah, it remains pretty handy to have a stable server in Europe. I was always having frequent disconnections with the american ones during these last weeks because of them shutting down; guess it was maintenance but still.

I posted a twitter notice about it which appears on the Team XLink news page when we set it up. The French orbital is compliments of our longtime friend optodoxie.

As Narolf reminds us, no game traffic goes over the Orbitals but you may see a little more snappiness in chat and when switching arenas. Either way, it's good to have a presence in as many continents as we can.

Thank you for noticing and sharing your appreciation.
