Update.
Discovered that while Nitrado web service indicates the server is restarting, Ark itself is able to find the server as though it were up and running. Upon attempting to join, it indicates a "mod version mismatch". Now i'm uncertain if it is on my end, or on server side. Also, quite oddly, server side Ark version states it as 331.19 while at the main menu for ark, it states it as 331.17
So again, was there an Ark update that I for some reason have not downloaded? Or is this a Nitrado issue?
I have yet to open a Ticket to the support team, however I am beginning to wonder if I should do so
UPDATE:
Discovered the Nitrado web interface is NOT communicating with my server, or so it seems. Opened a Support Ticket as i'm uncertain what to do outside of reinstalling the server.
