Tell them shit happens and this is a early access game? Not much else u can tell them really....

I gave up and am now watching a movie lol

Unfortunately I think there is nothing we can do and just have to accept the fact we lost a day+ in progress now... I have been asking around and I haven't seen or heard of other well known hosting providers having as many "issues" as us unlucky few had my server ordered since before launch and I got maybe 8 hours of actual playtime.

Yeah. After my community raged on me last night.. I just stopped the server.. I knew it wasn't saving and I wanted to save new players coming in the grief we have been experiencing.... I'm noticing other server providers are not having as many "issues" as we are....not sure how I can get my community back. Right now my server is sitting in unknown status and I cant switch back to LA because it's greyed out.. not that it matters because it's not saving anyway.

Saving is not currently working. I believe after they brought down some of the servers yesterday for "maintenance" and then back up... both saving and the ability to update the server is not working. My server stopped it's auto saving around that time. Even manual savings with admin command didn't work. You can see by looking at the file theisland.ark in the server save folder.. check the last modified date. The guide you posted is great if the servers were saving properly but they are not. I imagine as more ppl try to update their server and restart they will see they lost all progress from yesterday. I tried switching from LA to new York and I did get the latest server version but of course I want LA so I switched back hoping to get a new IP trying to fix the server saving issue.. but unfortunately it gave me the same server/ip. So I did it again and now I'm stuck with server status unknown. Anyways I put a ticket in like 20 hours ago with no response. Side note.. admin password I figured out there is a configuration file in the ftp ... can't remember the name off hand.. anyways look there and u can find it.. u can manually change via text editor and overwrite the file.
