I'm not sure what the timer is set at as far as world saves but it seems like it is saving every 5 or 10 minutes I think we need to make the timer a little farther in between saves not sure how much work it takes to change something like this as I am no scriptor etc... Between the lag and server saves lately im pulling my hair out trying to spawn etc without wondering is it lag or server save.
It's a half-hour, IIRC. It's necessary.
As for now the server is young, many things still need work and until stability issues are all worked out i think its best to leave the timer as it is now (15 minutes?)
Id rather endure those few second saves every 15 minutes than lose gear/stuff/srties due to a crash and revert.
But thats just my opinion.
