The hosting provider on which STK's main services are hosted (main website, forum, addons server which is also what handles online play) suffered an outage tonight. So this wasn't something specific to just our own server.
The problem was first noticed at 18:40 UTC but it may have started a bit earlier. When we discovered that the issue was at the level of the hosting-provider, there wasn't much that we could do except wait.
The websites were back up on bcf's end by 20:25 UTC and on my end by 21:00 UTC. The in-game API allowing to connect to the online user account and to access online servers initially didn't respond but it worked on my end shortly after.
As far as I can tell, all services are now restored.
We apologize for the inconvenience!
