Hi everyone! I thought maps were handled on the client side? What would make all the maps on the client side be reset (fog of war)? The only thing changed was the servers display name? oO
Maps reset?

did you change your server server-list display name, world seed, ip address, or port? the map is named after these 4 parameters if any change then a new map will be created, to keep your old map you can just copy the contents of the old map folder in the new one
-
Yea i changed the server-list display name, i take it I cant include a version number then in the server list name!! X/ If i change it back, will peoples old maps work again?
-
Just tried renaming - yes it does. Shame though that you can't change server name!
-
well you can change it but then everyone has to copy paste the old maps in the newly created map folder
-
Yeah i can't see that going down well with players
-
just thought of it, you could write a small script doing:
mv old_map_folder_name new_map_folder_name
not sure if the mv command works on windows though
then send the script to all players through discord or sthing
-
Yea thanks for the idea, but still think it's too much to ask your average player to keep doing
-
yeah probably is a bit too much for the average user
Well the map will be moved server side at some point (hope soonish) so until then just don't change the server name, not the best solution but oh well for now
-
Yes, it's indeed caused by the server name... it's a really bad solution, but since we want to move the map data to the server anyway (as mentioned by @Minotorious), we didn't touch that yet... Unfortunately I have no ETA when this change is finally implemented
-
That's OK Red, thanks for the info! I can wait (I just wont touch the server name till then!)
