Server reset AGAIN?!?

[Lexilou]

I’ve played for years and I can’t tell you how many wonderful towns I’ve built just to have the server be reset and everything wiped clean. I haven’t played for a couple weeks and I just logged on to find my whole town was reset. Random iron tools lying around but all my walls, floors and everything else I had built was gone. I’ve stopped recommending this game to people because it has disappointed me so many times.

Wait what ???

Which server?

the map resets inbetween 7 and 30 days, if nobody is visiting this part of the map. i guess thats only for public servers not for private servers.

@Christoffer

The map cleanup only happens at server restart and then the condition is that a certain area must not have been “seen” by any player for a given number of days. The number of days can be set individually per server. It used to be 7 days as standard, but due to player feedback, it was bumped to 30 days on some servers.
That the cleanup sometimes leaves some stuff behind is probably a bug we inherited from OHOL.

I especially recommend to visit your town within that 7 days, when an Update is coming up.

I experienced that a town may reset, through an update even its a server where you could normally leave and not visit the town for 2 or more weeks, without anything get lost/reset.

idk if this count for every puplic server, but better be save before an update.
(there will be an update in the near future!don’t know the date tho)

There will be another update this week, so go visit your loved places now if you haven’t done it the last week.
