Talk:Vacation Mode

Correction to article
The article previously only mentioned that constructing ships or buildings would prevent vacation mode from activating. However, from personal testing I figured out that building defensive units (even if they are the only thing being built with zero fleet slots in use) it will also say you cannot go into vacation mode "while something is being built".

Can you still receive messages while in vac mode? (Referring mainly to uni 42)

In OGame, under Options and Extended it states:


 * "Vacation mode is meant to protect you during long absences from the game. You can only activate it when no fleets are in transit.

Building and research orders will be halted and then reactivated when vacation mode is ended."
 * Once vacation mode is activated, it will protect you from new attacks, attacks that have already started will however continue and your production will be set to zero.

So, you should be able to activate Vacation Mode if you have buildings being build and research being done. The timers will pause, but these should not prevent you from entering Vaccation mode.

There is no mention of building ships or defences; so these activities may interfere with you entering Vacatinon Mode.

Vacation Mode effect on DP item?

Does Vacation Mode pause the timers on the Booters you can buy with DP, win in auctions, or get from the Import/Export?

Answer: Vacation mode STILL allows you to buy items from the Import/Export option and bid on items in auctions. As far as boosters, I haven't figured that out, yet.
