Map resets when i rejoin my dedicated server


Recommended Posts

I'm not sure why but every time I disconnect my dedicated server and connect back to it, the map resets and I got lost and didn't know where to portal is and do you guys have any idea on how to configure the mods for dedicated server? 

 

Can anyone help me with this? Sorry, i'm new to hosting a dedicated server.

I'm not an expert but I'm willing to help but please share the log so I can try to see what went wrong.

 

Additionally, in order to configure your mods, you would need to add a modoverrides.lua

Here. Its a super long one tho

Is your dedicated server running linux? 

Maybe you have the same issue as in this thread http://forums.kleientertainment.com/topic/52204-linux-dedicated-server-always-starts-a-new-session-cant-resume-saved-world/?p=623572

 

nope not the same problem. my map resets whenever i rejoin my dedicated server and only shows the place where my character is currently standing at.

 

its windows btw.

What do you mean by the map resets exactly?

 

Does the dedicated server generate a new map? Because according to your log (that I could understand; aka I'm not an expert at this) your game is already at day 18 so it should be the same map.

 

Or do you mean by reset that it looks like an old save file was loaded? I'm thinking it's this. This is because the dedicated server only saves after the game night ends (meaning it only saves once a day) therefore if you disconnect your server at any point after that, all your progress is gone.

 

If it's neither of those try deactivating all of your mods (I counted 35 mods in your log from your modsettings.lua) and test it vanilla and see if that fixes it.

Hi @Annabelle,

 

so it's server dedicated on your computer?

 

it's normal if your game he is in folder "Download"?

C:\Users\Annabelle\Downloads\Steam\SteamApps\common\Don't Starve Together Dedicated Server\bin\dontstarve_dedicated_server_nullrenderer.exe
you are well on a steam version? it's server dedicated on windows server? windows 7? windows 8? windows 10?

That happens to me when I play DST on a different computer (using the same Steam account). The map is saved into your pc locally if I'm not mistaken so transferring to a different computer, even though it's the same account, won't transfer the map that you've explored.

 

I'm hoping that that's what happened to you because I'm stumped if that's not the case. Sorry... :(

nope, i've been playing DST on the same computer.

@Annabelle,

 

wait your steam is installed here?

C:\Users\Annabelle\Downloads\Steam\SteamApps\common

very strange installation

 

yes, not sure why its there tho @@

Did you mean that everytime after you have finished DST, you directly close the server at window instead of proper shut down it?

 

Maybe you have to shut down it in proper way. Try type c_shutdown(true) in the game before you quit your DST. Not sure you have same problem as mine or not. 

I also notice from log that your server seems share the same save folder with your DST client.

Perhaps you may want to create a separate folder for dedicate server to save the data.
