Hello :) Server has been stuck in Starting for about 2 hours. Wondering if you can provide any insight on it.

Crystal Isles map. We have another server in Olympus but that seems to be working.
I have two servers in cluster that are also not starting.
I'm considering that moving the server from North America network A to another would probably fix it.
Keep in mind the following timeline.
1) Studio WildCard recently released the DevKit for Genesis content in ARK.
2) All the modders who were tensely waiting to be "first to market" with Genesis Assets pounced on it and feverishly updated their mods.
3) A lot of mods therefor have been pushing updates for the last few days.
4) WildCard botched the DevKit. Modders have been discovering that their mods have been broken in new and creative ways for the last few days.
5) A lot of mods that had updates, who have actual decent modders behind them, are going to be once again pushing out updates for the next few days.
6) Expect 1-5 to repeat for about 2-3 weeks depending on how heavily modded your servers are.
THIS IS NORMAL FOR ARK.
I'll repeat....
THIS. IS. NORMAL. FOR. ARK.
Anytime a new content pack drops, we have about 2 months of just bullshit updates from WildCard, botched DevKit releases / delayed DevKit releases, and then finally, about 90 days after the DLC launches, peace.
So in the meantime, just realize there's going to be some instability, and if you really want to just play.... your best bet is Official PvP.
Though that's only because WildCard occasionally toggles PvE servers to PvP during updates like this so they wind up having to rollback the PvE servers.
A lot.
Like seriously, look it up, that's a thing.
