Day count doesn't mean anything in terms of difficulty. Hasn't meant anything for a few years now. New players will get spawns and hordes based on their own gamestage.

The easiest solution may just be to reset or lower the day count using admin commands when the rest of you log on.
Just a note.. Doing this is very likely going to break the save. Or at least anything in the world that relies on a timer.

really? Is the same true for the debug mode slider? Because I've never had any issues at all and I use it all the time.
Yep. Anything relying on a timer has a strong chance of being broken. Going forward is less likely to cause a problem, but going backwards almost certainly will. Has been this way for years.
Debug mode and console commands are for testing. Not something to use on a game save you care about.

Basically you have been super lucky so far, or just haven't encountered/noticed the things that were broken.
