The problem is, players tend not to like change. Oldies on Classic, for example, abhor any changes to the map. This is a constant debate sort of thing that goes on on Classic. You can never really have anything new for this reason. Even additions or removals gets the pitchforks ready. Then again, I don't know if Era players are the same as Classic players, when it comes to that.

You have two choices: leave the current world open, and add a new world as an expansion of sorts, or just delete the current world and put everyone in a new map. For the former, you'll end up just having an empty new gmap, as no one will migrate. For the latter, you'll get a bunch of pissed off players.

Updates like this tend to never work on Graal servers, players just get too damn attached to their surroundings.
