Survival World Map Reset Schedule

/archive/minigames/plugins/ · last edited 29 May 2021 · Partnerships

Last week, the survival world map was reset unexpectedly after a server update introduced a bug that caused the map to corrupt. This happened during a scheduled maintenance window, but the reset was not part of the planned changes. Players who had invested time in building structures and gathering resources were left frustrated, and several reported losing progress that wasn’t saved properly. The incident highlighted a need for more thorough testing before implementing updates, especially those that affect persistent world data.

In response, the moderators have adjusted the reset schedule to occur only once every two weeks, rather than weekly, to give players more time to prepare for changes. A new backup system has been put in place that will automatically save the world state before any major updates or resets. This should help prevent accidental data loss and make it easier to restore the map if something goes wrong. The backup process will also be monitored by a volunteer team to ensure it runs smoothly.

Going forward, all major changes to the survival world will be announced in advance with clear instructions for players on how to save their progress. The reset schedule is now posted in the main server lobby and on the community forum, so everyone can keep track of when the next reset will happen. Players are encouraged to build in designated reset-safe zones to minimize the impact of future resets. These changes aim to make the survival experience more stable and enjoyable for all users.
