Its... unstable. Alpha is alpha I guess, but it seems to crash now after an hour or so no matter what I do.

I may have to restart the world.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Ohh well

[Max White]

Do it, I dare you!

[Neonivek]

It sucks, I lost a lot of time and effort with a vehicle I didn't save properly, but if there is nothing we can do about it... Thems the breaks.

[forsaken1111]

Its back up for now but if it keeps going down I may have no choice. I can't babysit it like this.

[Max White]

I lost very little actually. I'm very surprised, as I built a structure, and then build a turret on top of it, then built another structure, and another turret.
Both structures are still there, and both turrets are gone. Apparently the roll back affected ships, but not so much planets. I still don't know if shops or stations were also affected.

EDT: Actually come to think of it, if somethings were rolled back and others not, that would easily explain why you had some database errors.
EDIT2: Also, Neon, your ship is back on my planet waiting for you if you need it.

[Neonivek]

I am banking on the server being reset Max, so there is no point in going back for it. I saved the ship I needed to save.

[forsaken1111]

Yeah due to increasing instability I'd recommend everyone saves their ship designs now.

[Max White]

Everybody is pretty much getting ready for a server restart, so you might as well go ahead with it.

Restart checklist:
~Save your ship design!
~Your inventory is client side, so it is likely you will maintain everything you are holding. Grab anything you will need.
~Your location is also local, so be aware that it is likely you will spawn in the middle of space with no ship. Best bet is to head back to 2,2,2 or carry the stuff needed to build a new ship.
~Once in the new game, get to a shop and reset your spawn point! Otherwise when you die you will likely be stuck in space.

[forsaken1111]

I'll be resetting the server in just under an hour so make your final preparations. Server will go down at midnight EST

[forsaken1111]

Everyone logged out so I went ahead and reset it.

[Greiger]

Yay everything is so fresh and new!  And the shop doesn't have a hole in it!

I see inventories are reset too, but that's all well and good with me.


EDIT: Aww designs are gone too.

[forsaken1111]

even locally saved ones?

[Greiger]

Nope I derped

Thanks for the reset!  Everything is fresh new and shiny.  Ripe for the strip mining!

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The front is coming along nicely. You can see the big doors. I want to color code the two hangars but not sure of the best way. Right now the inside is very plain. The back of the carrier has a big 30x40? or 40x50? internal door/passage connecting the two bays. The big docks are done. It can hold roughly a 60x50x390 ship in each dock, but that's with no wiggle room. Ships that size might get stuck. I will probably make an emergency dock crossing both top decks that could hold a twin of itself, or whatever max dimensions I find. Power is being a pain and not budging much over 1.2 million recharge.

So how does this game handle ships docking? It sounds rather... bumpy. I figured I'd make a mobile base and dock a few personal ships for my various uses.
