Thread: Towers and server crash/reboot

    Towers and server crash/reboot

    What happens with all the towers you bought and build if/when a server crashes or reboots? Do they just disapear? If so its pretty bad.

    Well, at least that would make it an even better money-sink!

    Why would they do that? Even missions don't do that (repopulate sure, but not vanish). They'll be stored in the DB and reconstruced on server startup. Worst that could happen is that you've just about killed an enemy tower and *bang*, and when you get back its all back on full health.

    Unless FC have *really* messed it up...

    Nah, even they know they reboot their servers once a week...

    Heh, true. But they don't get stored in the DB either. Nothing is permanent until its written to the DB (as people who've lost all sorts of stuff to server crashes know only too well...)
