Thanks, that seems to work for me for every past spork other than mainnet8 where I get the error: Recovering from panic: client: rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = connection error: desc = “transport: Error while dialing dial tcp 35.238.24.101:9000: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.” Is there any way to stop this connection error?
