But I wouldn't mind the world save happening a bit less often.
It would be nice, but its never caused any problems. Its a 7-12 second pause. Nothing horrible. Think of it this way its a great safety thing. Save and save often!

RunUO relies heavily on world saves for certain features like item decay for example.
If the saves were moved to 24 hours an item that normally would decay in 20 or even 60 minutes wouldn't decay until the 24 hours elapsed on the save.
This probably won't change until a better saving mechanism will someday be developed by either Derrick or the RunUO team. I would see something like this happening from Derrick before the RunUO team though. I don't think the way the current code for saves really bothers them or they don't want to take the enormous amount of time to fix it.

Server crashed yesterday and reverted 10-15 min maybe? I had loged from doing a lvl 5 map and set up another macro. Came back with server disconnect, went back to Tmappper and the poison/blood eles ate my ass at the tmap......
You guys are all on crack if you think this server doesn't go down other than restart. Anytime you see saves taking longer than 10-12 seconds.....crash may be coming!

I am guessing you have not expirienced crashes and reverts on free shards 7-10 years ago. If it was below 5 hours revert nobody even complained.Brules wrote:Server crashed yesterday and reverted 10-15 min maybe? I had loged from doing a lvl 5 map and set up another macro.
