They had the good sense to schedule server maintenance exactly a day before, this time around.
Even without a hotfix to apply, a fresh reboot of all shards with accompanying purge of assets can go a long way to giving a better first impression of Star citizen.
Did they purge assets with yesterday’s maintenance? I thought part of the server issues steam from the fact that new servers are rebooted to the previously saved state, with all the junk laying around as usual. My session last night didn’t really look like a clean and fresh start at the very least.
One of the notes from Wakapedia was that they were cleaning up the bugged out landing gear that’s leftover from destroyed ships. I’ll see if I can find it.
That would be a welcome sight indeed, these things can be a menace.

Much obliged!
Quadrature’s reply is far more informed than mine.
I only noted a much lower entity count from r_displayinfo 1 than before, which I often check when dealing with server lag and hopping between shards. Admittedly that’s not really indicative of any server cleanup efforts, however. Sorry for any confusion.
No worries, I actually didn’t even think about them manually cleaning up stuck parts of ships as I simply forgot about them - I don’t visit the popular locations and most of the ones I do stop by don’t really have much wrecks around them.
