SOI Updating: A low-usage program has been started that updates SOI in zones that have not yet been updated at the rate of about 30 per minute beginning with the largest empires in the game and moving downwards. To shut the game down and update them all at once would likely take between 5-8 hours, so we are reluctant to do it. The method implemented doesn't create any extra server drag and no downtime. We expect that it will update all zones in all empires over the next 10 - 12 days. If there are zones that you need to update right away because you need to see a proper zone garrison number, then you can simply click on the zone in question and update it. Once all the zones have been updated once, SOI will only update if you click on the zone manually. This means that if you enlarge a city or build a new one, you will need to check the zones in that area that are not currently under your SOI to see if they have changed hands.
