For the love of God could you guys PLEASE give us a heads up when you do server restarts, so that we can dock and save progress.
I have lost so many hours of progress in the past 3 days...
Just a five minutes warning-.
Is it possible?

Server normally restarts once each day at 7am. There are announcement about this.
Another situation is server crash, which is usually linked with bugged client installations trying connect to the server or which are connected to the server and server need to kick these. Such situations alas do not have any"warning" bcs they are not planned. For save your progress you need dock, jump, or log-out.
Can you be please more specific how you lost progress?

it's not about scheduled restarts. the server simply crashes. don't forget, it is still a beta test and dev team is doing its best to make the server more stable and the game more enjoyable. pls be patient

Last night I asked Huor what was going on and he told me they were doing restarts to test a new feature.
6 restarts while I was online and we got 1 heads up. a one minute heads up.I respect that crashes occure and it's a BETA.
-
Ah, such case is coming quite rare. Please little more patience with this like suggested denne. Some changes need to be applied and tested "in real".
-
uhm yes, yesterday we started testing a new feature and some restarts were necessary. but when it works, it will be great. here is the complete thread for this: outpost on inner core galaxy
i hope to have u participating with that

Just give us a 5 minute heads up when you restart the server
-
We cant if there is a crash. Crashes occur just out of randomness (more or less).
Else if i need to restart the server purposely, i am givin a 2 or 5 minutes warning ahead. -
I give a 1min warning everytime.
I dont think that any player need more than 1 minute for Alt+F4.
It also gives the server enough time to store the chars where they currently are.Waiting longer than that is wasted time for me... I have to get work done.
Especially on patch days there sometimes isnt any luxury to wait for players if problems occour. Either apply fixes and restart the server as soon as possible or I risk that hundred if not thousands of chars get bugged (we already had such a situation once and it took me weeks to get everything restored). -
Oh I didn't know your progress got saved with alt+f4.
In that case a 1 min heads up is fine.
Thank you for replying.
