Saving.

Post by sami1337 »

With this many crashes why don't we get character saving every 15 minutes and world saving every 30 minutes? It's stupid to lose 10k lp because i don't log out every 30 minutes while hunting.

I would like a button that saved your character personally, getting into a fight to then logout and back into the same location seems very long winded.

Well, it's fine for a stable game. But it obviously isn't.

Yeah, you have a point. I've hacked the server a bit so that it always saves the character when you click the button to buy new skill values, even if you didn't increase them. It won't take effect until the next server restart, of course. I have some stuff that I'm currently working on; let's hope I get them done and restart the server for them before it crashes again. ;)

Ogod the LP losses .. if it saved like every 1k or 5kLP or just a /save.. needs better character saving with these downtimes, global message when you take the server down would be good witht he current system so you can logout and thus save.

You don't need to log out, like loftar just said, just open your attributes/skills window and click the buy button, that saves your character. Do that frequently.

The time of day in the game doesn't go backwards, but that doesn't stop me from losing 1-2 hours of progress.
