    Default Old save/reset request

    Either the dwarves have been victim of some incredible greifing or we have been victims of a bad chunk error. Whatever the case everything is ruined (see spolier).

    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 






    Thats not half of it...


    So can we go back a save or somthing?

    Nhytg, we are referring to reverting back to a previous save, not necessarily restarting the entire world all over again. Furthermore, I cannot simply understand the harshness displayed in your comment: this is a major, destructive glitch that has caused most of what we have put hours into to be utterly destroyed. 'A hole', in your terms, is equal to several massive, cataclysmic chasms diving deep down into our halls, ruining just about everything.

    I suggest that until we figure out the extent of the damage, and wether it's fixable or affected anywhere else in the world, that people refrain from building anything they can't afford to lose. That, and we've got to evaluate that if we do restore from a backup (depending on how old that is), which is harder to remedy - the Dwarven holes, or what everyone else has made? Also, it may be that we restore from a backup, only for the issue to reappear. [I'll say in advance, if we opt to revert, take a copy of the server as is now before we lose that. We don't want to find the issue is unfixable by reloading and lose recent work aswell]

    If we opt not to revert, i'd like to offer to help you guys fix everything.

    Edit: Can't see any damage near my construction. Is this just Dwarf specific?

    Sama's and Danny's and Manco's house in the city are affected too.

    EDIT: As well as the swimmingpool/wall/makrells house/treefarm/english's buddy house/Katsu's house.

    EDIT 2: The climate also shifted to tundra in the city.

    I know that this is no time to joke (least of all by me), but can you see the developing pattern here? First the mysterious appearance of TNT. Then the monsters invading the city - now it's the map itself terminating our constructions. The server... It's alive!

    Stunt, I heard there was a save from morning today, I believe that it could in fact work, seeing as everything was working fine at least up until 9:40 AM GMT+1. You may be referring to 'morning' on American time zones, however.

    Is anything like this being reported on the Minecraft forums?

    Anyway, if we can't revert, I suggest we have a co-ordinated effort in repairing the damage.
