This morning around 855am PST there was a glitch that destroyed all bases/structures. I suspect this might be a bug related to the auto-destruction timer. I would consider turning auto destruction off or at least looking into it as a potential cause for this bug.

This was on me, my deepest apologies.
I have informed the other admins on the cause, how to avoid and how to restore the server quickly with minimal downtime.
Learning experience for me for sure.

Mind me hooking me up with that info? We've run a private server for awhile and since this happened I have been wondering how to recover from this if it were to happen. |

The way to fix it is immediately stop the server without saving first. Dont use the game commands to stoo it. Just either end the process or go to your hosting company control panel and stop server. As long as you do it quick enough it will auto rollback to the previous save.

I missed that window, but at least I found out why our data files were time stamped wrong!

I think this debacle might be why you're worth about the same as a dodo egg...

It should should just load from the last known save as long as you don't save the world, and providing autosave doesn't kick in before you can shut it down.

I left my 80-something Survivor on Ragnarok, can we transfer our toons to AB or just start afresh? Very Happy to be Baaack!
