Is there a way to keep the server going without the host online?

There could be situation where the host needs rest but the others want to keep playing..
You can't just leave because something bad will happen to your beloved character..
Maybe that's why there is feeding .. To take care of them while they are gone...?

Nothing will happen to your character when you're not in the server so... I dunno what you mean by that?

But no, as far as I'm aware, when the host leaves, everyone gets kicked.

There is a dedicated server apparently... I've looked but never could find the damn thing.

So.. the dedicated servers are always opened..? Even without the host?

That is what a dedicated server is, yes.

I read on the forum and apparently you have to be selected to test dedicated servers, they are not public yet.

Oh right, sorry my mistake. I thought you were worried that when you disconnected, your character was still in the game.

That's true, a host can't just leave the server running. As someone else mentioned there are dedicated servers, but they aren't open to everyone right now. So at the moment, if you play on a server and the host leaves, you get kicked. It sucks but, not a lot you can do...

Yeah, we should be able to transfer host rights.

Having a something like a manger in that server who can open and close without the one who created the world
