World saves... Please not in the face...
Is it possible to do one world save a day or drastically reduce the frequency?
Re: World saves... Please not in the face...
i believe they were recently changed to be 30 mins apart.
do you really want to play for a whole day and have the server crash and lose that entire day?
didn't think so...

Server's pretty stable, and it's happened on OSI, so it'd be era accurate.

They do seem very frequent, and crashes are so few and far between. If we crashed once every 2 days, and world saves were every 1 hour, that's only a loss on average of 0.5/47.5 = roughly 1% of uptime. world saves always remind me how much i'd like to pop out for a cigarette. it's promoting smoking!!

It would be 1.0/47.0, if they were every hour.nightshark wrote:They do seem very frequent, and crashes are so few and far between.

If the server crashed you wouldn't lose the whole hour on average, more like 30min. Worst case you would lose just slightly less than 1hr. The server is also down, on average, a lot closer to his 15min than your 30min.
Keep practicing!

Re: World saves... Please not in the face...
I actually don't mind it saving so often. Sure, there is a pause, but it's worth the 7 seconds in order to make sure that not a whole lot of time is lost. Heck, wasn't it just 3 weeks ago that we had server issues and several reboots? Luckily, we only had a short revert each time.

Re: World saves... Please not in the face...
frequent saves are better than long reverts. be thankful the saves here only take a fraction of the time they take on other free shards.
Re: World saves... Please not in the face...
What other servers do and the length of their saves are irrelevant.
RunUO has amazing stability. The hardware this server is run on and the location it's hosted at seem to be very stable as well. Besides someone mentioning 3 weeks ago, when was the last time there were some issues with the server?

Re: World saves... Please not in the face...
if the server was to crash right now, with the last save being 23 hours ago, i'd be wishing for more frequent saves. i think everybody would be in agreement. even a server with 99% uptime crashes sometimes.

Crashes happen, but this is like driving with bubble wrap around your car, I think.
Re: World saves... Please not in the face...
It might just be me, but it seems like every time someone suggest less server saves citing lack of recent crashes the server starts crashing...
