Rollback on public servers should be adjusted

[IAmAFurrz]

It's used most of the time to prevent griefers, but sadly if they do it at the end of day, or people found out 1 day too late rolling back 2 days is impossible, make it an option to pick number of days, either that or have the time after a save has been done allowed to rollback to the day before longer, or best option: both. the rollback feature cant do much of anything to prevent griefers sadly, and i hope it becomes actually useful for that

You beat me to it, I was going to post this exact idea. Being able to rollback even 2 days would be amazing to combat griefers. I think it'll be great just to have that extra option and can stop alot of griefing.

sadly, i recently had a griefer in one of the pubs, and stole so much of our stuff... he just did nothing which was suspicious but i didnt wanna assume  ended our shadow rift rush bc of it

 

so anyway the server got reset by the game as we were re-gathering items randomly while others were not :))))))))))

You should be able to store a "save point" and no matter how many days pass you always have a good spot to go back to.

It's for times where, against all odds, you do something amazing and saving up to this point will mean it's stored forever. 

Though with all things this could be exploited but tbh if people really wanna cheat they're gonna cheat.

if only manual saves were a thing... (i do feel it might not fit with dst's vibe)

It currently rolls back to the previous day for the first like 20 seconds of the day or something, so it's basically impossible to actually do. They should extend that timer to the first 3 minutes instead.

I have been asking for changes on klei public servers for couple years now, they just do not care at all sadly.

i dont know if you know but do you know the meow servers? there you can use .save and then .loadmy if you are alone on that meow server to load your manual save, and it is a puplic server aswell

Voting in general (besides klei's pubs) and server permissions should be modified at some point. I'm still waiting for klei to implement server moderators

Well, double rollback is possible, but EVERYONE in the server needs to have a fast pc, which also means, having to kick people with slow PCs if they dont want to leave(which is very unfair) it's very hard to pull off, I have a slow pc myself so I always need to leave the server when people do that, by far, I've only experienced 2 double rollback and all of them were In klei servers a participated. And, yeah, there should be a way to configure how far you want your rollback to go, it's so hard to convince people to leave the server and leave only the super pc people.
