Re: Terraforming has been reset on Davis barrier

What happend that it got reset? Hopefully they can restore all your work.

Re: Terraforming has been reset on Davis barrier

I too have spent a unspecified amount of time on a unspecified project on Landers.  Due to the unspecific nature of this unspecific job, I would like all of my unspecified NIC back, as well as all of my unspecified time back.  The time can be specifically reimbursed in candy canes and unicorns.

Thank you for your specified time, I should of probably just made a ticket asking and explaining the situation, but I will make a specified forum post instead.  Good Day.

It's probably best to put it on the forums when tickets are taking 3 monthes to answer.

Re: Terraforming has been reset on Davis barrier

Unfortunately during the server crash on October 10th we have lost some important terrain layers. The bad news is that there is little hope of recovering them sad

The three affected islands (as far as we know) are Davis Barrier, Emperth and Guthraw.

We are looking into how we can compensate this.

Not sure if troll or not smile but to avoid misunderstandings these islands are hosted on the same machine in our cluster of servers, and the problem affected that machine only.

so it took BOS 4 days to notice the terrain reset? I'm confused. hmm

Re: Terraforming has been reset on Davis barrier

It's very worrying that terrain files (Or other server files) aren't backed up.
Sadly for the game this kind of problem has given me even more of a justified reason not to have been taking part in it for some time.

Disappointing. Avoidable. hmm

Re: Terraforming has been reset on Davis barrier

Re: Terraforming has been reset on Davis barrier

Ow, Anni! Your cynicism almost took me eye out! Watch where you swing it..

Overall it's a major shame that such a data loss happened. Lesson learnt. Yet more "I wish they didn't have to refund it like this but you can't put a price on emotional damage".

It's hard to enjoy a persistent world when things like this happen but it's happened and all water under the bridge. tongue

Slight update: seems like Emperth wasn't affected after all, but feel free to tell us otherwise.

thankyou smile Its a basic lesson. find the main points people go to & make a straight line between them. im just sad that TFing was lost sad

But really devs this should never happen again its unacceptable. imagine if this happend to some ones home base island. Remember the main thing is time wasted & when that happens ppl get emo mad.
