I am absolutely certain this is out there, probably a feature of whatever OS you're using or at least a stable add-on that they made for it. Should be able to schedule the event, and should be able to restart after a crash. I would be one surprised dude if it wasn't ubiquitous.

The thing is, the server doesn't actually crash so far as I'm aware.  It just derps, stops accepting new connections, starts bugging the ship warps, and then people either bug off or try to relog.

Also, if it's on a home version of an OS then it might not be there.  Servers usually have special server OS for really dedicated servers.

I thought about that too. But I assume there have to be some peripheral tools that you can use on a home OS. And this is a pretty darn simple thing.

Let us draw our minds together and figure out what the flying fuck is going on.

Or, y'know. Wait around and hope Forsaken does that for us. I tend to prefer the latter. :P

I wonder how tricky it'd be to make a 3rd party program that would automatically close the server, wait 2 minutes, and re-launch the program.  Servers in general seem to just become increasingly unstable the longer they run.

If it's on Linux, a simple Cron job would work.  Most linux distro's have cron jobs, even server ones.  Linux is awesome that way.

You could do it with autohotkey. It would involve knowing/learning how to use it, but it should be able to do it without any problem.

Same for me with platinum AND diamonds. Also, the Ufo is suddenly fun! Beta planet miniboss still 1shots me in steel armor, though. :I

The ability to smelt logs into coal is really damned nice. 10 logs per piece of coal for anyone who can't check.

That point where you find yourself actively avoiding diamond veins because they take longer to mine than soil or rock...


Also, found a harp. Fuck yeah. xD

I will trade the everliving daylights out of that guitar if you're willing (whenever forsaken's server is back up). Assuming it's a lead/bass/acoustic guitar, and not an overdrive, because I already have one of those.

I think it's an overdrive guitar, I'm afraid.

If I find any others, I'll tell you.

Also, since I have the saxophone, I need to get Baker Street into ABC... Irritatingly, I lack any way to do that. No ABC programs/converter, no ability to replicate music, and lacking a copy of the song.

I think that should be it. At least it's listed as "Baker street (sax version)".
