Update regarding Unofficial Non-ATLAS (Blackwood) Dedicated Saves & Data Reset

[Jat]

Additional Update: We have managed to make already existing savefiles load with this change, however, you will be forced to create a new character and make a new company. Force-joining into the old company will not work. However, you can then reclaim all your structures, ships, and creatures again with the use of admin commands such as:

- cheat takeallstructure

This will transfer all the structures, boats, and claimflags of the previous company, to your own.

- cheat takealldino

This will transfer all the creatures of the previous company, to your own.

- cheat giveallstructure

This will transfer the structure you’re looking at, as well as anything snapped to it, to you.

- cheat givetome

This will transfer the individual object you’re looking at, to you (works with creatures too).

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With our upcoming update (v218.24), some critical changes were made to the way Unofficial Non-ATLAS (Blackwood) servers saves were handled. This was in order to resolve the following issues:

- Players were randomly removed from their company
- Companies being deleted
- Being unable to spawn on beds
- Beds not appearing on the map
- Ships not appearing on the map

After some days of investigating ways in which we can push this update with no loss of data, we've had to acknowledge that it isn't possible to migrate existing saves to the new system for dedicated servers. Given the critical nature of these issues, we don't see putting this update on hold as a viable option. Unfortunately, Non-ATLAS saves made prior to this patch on dedicated servers will no longer load. This means a new save file will need to be created. Please note that this change only impacts Non-ATLAS Dedicated servers, so Single Player and Non-Dedicated saves will be unaffected.

We apologize to those affected, and we'll always look to avoid wiping or any data loss scenarios when and where possible. We have opted to push this update through quickly in order to allow players and dedicated server owners to get back into their saves with little pause.

Thank you for your understanding

Just posted another update to the save change. Technically you could still go with your existing savefile, but it may require some admin intervention if you would like things to function how they did. We've updated the OP to reflect this.

@Jatheish Thank you for the fixes and taking the time to figure out the workaround to get everyone up and running again with the commands rather than forcing a full wipe. Now if you could get them to fix the fish ;)

Did you download the dlc from the store page and does it show as installed on your library page?

[EffaGames]

I downloaded it and now I am able to play.

However, the game crashes every time I quit out. Is that normal?

[SteelFire]

Shouldn't be, but I also crashed on shutdown after this patch, so... *shrug*

@Jatheish brand new Dedicated Server Blackwood install and still the beds do not show up on the map, and only work if you first random spawn and die again, then i have a bed to spawn in. but its not on the map and I have 2 beds and can not travel from one to the other.

SO BEDS are still broken!!

Yes I am running 218.24. I started a whole new server to ensure that I am running on the updated code.

This AM I created a new 3rd Dedicated Server with 218.24 Blackwood and no Mods.
Entered the new server build 2 outposts with beds and can not use the beds for travel or to spawn at when killed, and they do not show up on the map.

Is anyone else still having the bed problems? Or is it just me??

Hmmm... Thanks for the info. will see what else I can do..

Are you using the Blackwood Map @XaNaBeLL ?

I can not get my boats or beds to show up on the map and they are not working.

Thanks for update.

Status of sea mobs: fish, etc. and what about falling to your death when diving in the ocean away from land. Another bug us when my character is killed, my brother's charactee got killed even though he was logged off. Example: Tiger killed me, and showed both my char and brother's char names popped yp that we were killled by tiger. My brother was logged out in his ship at the time of death. When I went back to get my stuff, i saw both our corpse bags.

Another issue I found was adding location markers on map. I entered my coords for a marker, but marker was showing in a different locarion on map.
