Yor suggestions make sense, i would take into account though that where there are Warrant Officers in a Town or Outpost it would also be realistic that they may have carried out some degree of maintenance, such as the light globes etc.Some level of maintenance increases security for the staff that are manning the area.
Based on the back story  i am not sure if trains and train tracks would be damaged, probably the only reason they wouldnt be functional would be that in outlying areas there may be little power generation to run them.
I would imagine around the major city, such as Saransk they may have been able to power them, depends on whether they have got stable power generation.But if you can run a forcefield you probably have stable power generation, at least in some regions.

In the absence of version information i suppose if we supply the date the last update took place it should allow DL to know what software is running.

The other problem is the sound ... I get none, and I've tried on two different machines.  On one I hear music for a few seconds after logging in and then it dies.

Hi Woose :)
                  try opening the Control Panel (ctrl-O ) and then close it.
There is a good chance your sound will then work, but for the time being you will have to do that at the start of each login.

Newcomers corner / Re: Newcomer - first task : get to New Urengoy

All Newcomers start in Mugen Village.

From here you need to follow the yellow path (indicated on the map - CTRL-M to show map) to a 'quarantine' area called New Urengoy.

Ctrl-M = screen capture
M= Map

For us, gamers, instant access is important, we dont want to wait to get entry to the game.
Secret question works well, or its equivalents, because it has no real delay, you log on, it says you need to answer question, you answer it and all is normal, it has slowed you down maybe 20 seconds.
Methods that really on external aspects such as emails or devices require you to have that device with you if you are on a different PC, or have your default email already setup and available on the different PC.
This is why Secret Question is really the standard in MMOs for IP change.

I appreciate "some" people would have a resolution to the email aspect, and "some" people would happily carry a device with them, but "all" will be able to answer the Secret Question, again, that is why it is used by other MMOs.
Personally i dont carry a smart phone,( i dont even own a smart phone, i have no need for those aspects) or a handbag with me when out  ;)  If i am travelling and i have the game on a laptop i can have email setup but i still dont really want to rely on the email for the ability to play, it still has potential for a problem that can delay entry.

These are just my preferences, i am sure others will have alternate preferences.

The MMOs i have played with lLock To IP request the Answer to a Secret Question, to proceed.
You are normally required to provide 1 - 3 questions and answers when the game is setup.

FYI, i dont think sound is working, it's not for me, unless it needs to be activated somehow.
You need to enable it via Options panel.
Though, the sound effects is still work-in-progress, we don't have yet sounds for everything. In a future updates, we will bring more.

I had previously gone to Options and seen it was Enabled so i tried alternate Output Device, with no luck.
After reading your reply i went back into Options, Dis-Enabled Sound, Re-Enabled Sound, changed Device Option back to Speakers and could instantly hear sounds :)

Cheers

Dont get me wrong, i am not a fan of the password secutity strategy here as it stands, i just thought i'd try and get some feet back on the ground before the conversation got to a stage where theory and practicality lost their comnnection  :)
