CassieCroft Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Hi So I recently purchased a dedicated server. I shut down the server last night in the hopes when I started it up again the world would resume. However when I started the game back up the world is brand new again. Is there something I need to do?

jacklul Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Server should've autosaved every day unless you have autosave off in the settings.ini. If you shut it down from the server host company's panel it probably just killed the server process, you need to send c_save() command to the server to make it save.

Thanks for your reply jacklul It is changed in the settings.ini - I have the following re: saves: enable_snapshots = trueenable_autosaver = true by sending c_save - do you mean typing that in console commands? Or something completely different?

CassieCroft Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 hmm. I dont know what to do then because my server options are really only just: Shutdown or Start/Restart... sigh. Stupid thing. I've lodged a ticket - lets see if they can help. They pointed me to the wiki before - but none of that seems to apply since I seem to be doing the right things.

CassieCroft Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 ok it looks like it's working now. I think maybe the issue was that the previous server I started before the settings file had the appropriate information in it. Looks good now though. Sorry for the stupid questions.
