Hi Captains,
While we investigate an issue with the Foundry editor, we have temporarily disabled access to it. We're working to get this resolved as soon as possible and will update this thread when more information is available.
Published Community Authored missions are available to play and the review/ tipping system is still disabled.
Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Sucks that the foundry is down but it's a good thing in the long run if they've found issues they need to fix.
Foundry Mission Database
Check out my Foundry missions:
Standalone - The Great Escape - The Galaxy's Fair - Purity I: Of Denial - Return to Oblivion
Untitled Series - Duritanium Man - The Improbable Bulk - Commander Rihan
Other than that I love the Foundry and hope it's back up soon
As far as I know, when it became unavailable, it should not have kicked anyone who was editing at the time. If it did, I sincerely apologize. As zorbane mentioned above, there is an autosave feature that should have kicked in.
Cheers,

It might be to do with the exploit that was posted about in the bug forum. In which case it's probably better if they don't tell us.
If not it could be the lag some folks are reporting, or the crashes I reported when deleting maps, or the crashing people are having when duplicating, etc, etc.
I think its the bug.
You can. I did it last Thursday after the editor came back up. I was wanting to swap out one of the old interior maps on a mission of mine for the new drozana station, so I copied and pasted four groups of enemy mobs over. Worked just fine, except it did something weird with the names. I had reskinned a bunch of feds to have TOS uniforms, but I didn't mess with the names. It copied fine with the uniforms, but the names turned into Actor #1, Actor #2, etc. Had to delete the names so it would revert back to <unnamed actor> so the game would know to fill in the blank.
Edit: I just realized that's not really what you meant. sorry.
The only thing that I noticed, is that when I copy and paste an object that had a "Y-value" that wasnt ground level... the copied version reset it to zero... this was not an issue before the last update... makes it very lengthy when I build an entire structure above ground level and I have to adjust the "Y-value" for every object. Can you change this back so it copies and pastes exactly what it has?
I would also like to hear an estimated down-time... a few hours? a day? a week? a month again? Just trying to update my website with new mission release dates... thanks devs! Love the foundry overall!

I suspect that might be the issue. I have since moved all the objectives off that map and onto the new one, but I haven't gone back and tried to delete the map without objectives. I'll have to try it when the Foundry comes back.
I can't help but hope, even a sliver, that, when the Foundry goes back up for editing, the TOS maps go up with it.
(1) Deleting a map crashes Foundry to the desktop.
(2) NPCs fall through captain's chairs.
(3) Previously killed NPCs respawn. Even though you may have completed an objective, the NPCs you kill during it respawn later.
(4) Items placed into buildings seem to hover; thus, you have to place elements outside of the buildings. If you set their y-axis to align with terrain, the objects move to the roof of the buildings. Regardless about which setting you use, you cannot get consoles, crates, and other placables to flush with the floor. It only works outside of buildings.

Build the editor first, then use the editor to build your game. Not the other way around. :P
Am I making you feel bad? I just pulling your leg but I would like to get back to what I was doing and so would a lot of others. So hurry it up, or I swear I will haul out the whips and chains.

Simply pathetic. Theses people really need to learn how their own game works.
I have the same thought.
