RIZZASTERBackups of the world files

Backups of the world files are essential to ensure that the game world remains safe and playable, even if something unexpected happens. Every few days, the moderators take a copy of the main world files and store them in a secure, offsite location. This means that if there is a crash, data loss, or any other issue, we can restore the world to a previous state without losing progress or disrupting the players.
New household members should be aware of where these backups are stored and how they are managed. It is important not to make changes to the world files unless explicitly instructed by a moderator. Any modifications should be tested in a separate environment first, and only applied to the main world after approval.
If you are asked to assist with a backup, follow the steps provided carefully. Do not move or rename files unless you are certain of what you are doing. Keep all backup files intact and do not delete them without consulting a moderator. Regularly checking the backup schedule and confirming that backups have been completed is part of your responsibility.
In the event of a system failure or data corruption, the most recent backup will be used to restore the world. It is important to keep this process as smooth and efficient as possible, so knowing where the backups are and how they work is a key part of being a responsible household member.
