I was playing with some friends and randomly everyone was kicked for the third time and that in itself is not too big of a deal, but then we get back on and there was another rollback. The first was pretty big, but I don't know the exact time amount. The second was about five minutes, and this one was four hours! We all had made massive progress on our tames and bases. I have a 30 person server and the most I have had on at once was 8 or 9 today. Is this a common issue?

When I restart server I usually rollback a few minutes I notice. I will not load back where I was. I read that when conan stops it saves the current state and should load that when loaded. But I notice it does not. So I then thought maybe if I dont restart instead stop and start. Nope same thing, I was outside my home when I rebooted, and reloaded back inside my home. Any idea how to stop the small rollbacks?

A few days ago I used this feature to rollback our server about 30 minutes. Worked perfectly without a hitch. The next night (almost exactly 24 hours later) An update came out for ark so we all logged off and I simply chose restart option in the control panel so it could update. It updated fine but when we logged back in we were restored to the the EXACT same point as we had been restored to the night previously, losing all of that days worth of work, items, and tames. Now When I use that same "restore an ARK backup" feature in the control panel simply nothing happens no matter how far back i try to restore to(I have tried 6 or 7 different restore points at this point all before the restart), and the server is still back to the point where we are missing about 24 hours worth of gametime. Is there a fix for your backup feature in the control panel not working? Or is there a way to manually go in using FTP and replace the files with the back-ups myself? Because we have many back-ups listed and they are of varying file sizes so I know the server was actually making backups as the file size increases a little with each backup file listed. I believe the problem is whatever program is being used to replace the server files, it just isn't working correctly. Any ideas? server #8594 UPDATE: So I went in using FTP and dowloaded one of the back-ups to my computer and replaced my single player world with the one I downloaded and it worked perfectly and it is right at the point where we should be before the unwanted roll back, so the back-up files themselves are fine. I went in again using FTP and deleted theisland.ark and renamed the backup file to that name instead, this seems to work as long as I also delete the anti-corruption backup as well. So it would seem to me that the problem isn't the game itself or the backup files, it is whatever program is handling the back-up restores. It doesn't work.
