As of tomorrow will our world be useless? Really enjoying it and I don’t mind starting over, thinking of doing a dedicated server or joining one so it’s not tied to any one person needing to be online to play.

From what I understand the version of Alpha 20 that is dropping tomorrow requires you to opt into an optional experimental build of the game. Your currently existing save files wont be useable, but at the same time you can also not get the experimental build of alpha 20 and keep playing your existing save.

Following this up, I want to know if it's worth starting an experimental alpha 20 save tomorrow and if that save will persist into the actual alpha 20 release (at a later date)

While opted into experimental, we recommend wiping your saves and clearing out old game data in between builds. Any code can change in between experimental builds and the results can be... interesting.

Edit: As an exp. changes to a stable build - the build number should not change therefore you could continue that game.

Hello! Just checking in cause i have a group of 15 friends ready to start on a dedicated server as soon as A20 is playable

If we start today on A20, and we want to keep that game long term, it will all work as long as we're ok with dealing with some "interesting" bugs?

Main concern is the game simply not letting us run the save anymore. Cause if something bugs out we can decide as a group if its bothersome enough to restart but if the game simply won't let us then its a bummer and some people will feel like dropping out

We were all hyped up on starting the game today and keeping it running for as long as we can

You can honestly do whatever you like, my dude! However, you have been warned that saves can break, and things can happen :) See you in Navezgane x
