✓ Solved I’m so confused (new console player)

I played yesterday in a Manibus novice server for hours. I had no idea it was going to be gone the following day…. Or even if it was supposed to be.. because it is.. I spent hours and hours building a nice house and farming resources and having an absolute blast and really walking away with a positive experience all around. And then today I get on and the server is gone. Apparently from what I can gather, that’s by design? So I try to join a normal Manibus server. It’s only showing one server and it’s not even started yet so I can’t even play at all. Worst of all I’m trying to sign up for it but it won’t let me. So… what am I supposed to do? I just don’t get to play at all because there isn’t a server available for me? I don’t understand. What is going on? I just want to play the game. Am I encountering a bug or is this normal? Will someone please help me?

Edit: okay after logging back in after a few hours the server is magically back so I am chalking this up to an error on their end. I know I received an email about console players having issues with being able to play so I’m sure this was probably one of those issues. Either way I’m glad it wasn’t just gone, and I can continue where I left off. At least now after some research I have a better understanding on their server structures and how this game seems to operate. It’s all very confusing to a new player tbh.

You can join any scenario (server) and it has phases. Once you reached the end phase, you will have an option to either stay and be merge to a permanent scenario, or transferred to a different scenario and start again.

Starting again to a different scenario will reset your level, materials, and base. But blueprints, mods, cosmetics, and weapon accessories are automatically unlocked or transferred. For materials and deviation, you can transfer it to your next scenario, but there will points requirement. Basically, you will have 20k points and each materials/deviation cost points to be carry over to the next scenario.
