       Ugh - Server rollback AGAIN??

       So I was playing, building and having fun from about 5PM ET -
       9PM ET tonight.  All was going good.  Then the server kicks me
       and is down.
       Five to ten minutes later, and it comes back up.  I join.  It's
       rolled back to about TWO WEEKS ago???
       Is there a backup from tonight?  I am sorry but if we're forced
       to restart bases yet again, that's it for me.  :(

       Hey Jalis, I've looked into this issue and unfortunately it's
       not a simple rollback like before. The data is saved and is fine
       but something is causing it to get deleted when logging into the
       server.
       For example: The database is single file with all the
       information written to it. It's simple text file so it's very
       small. Currently the latest backup (9pm friday) is 432kb. I will
       load this file into the database folder to be read and when
       logging into the server, at "server initializing" screen you
       will see that file change from 432 to around 300kb. Your
       character location and information seeems to be ok, but all
       building objects and vehicles get deleted. It's not being rolled
       back, it''s being completely removed.
       The reason I didn't notice this earlier when restarting the
       server is because my character was in the right location with
       the right gear so it seemed right. After you notifying me of the
       rollback I looked into it and I searched for building items to
       see where my base was to determine how far it rolled back and I
       noticed there was no building items what-so-ever on the map. I
       checked vehicles as well and there were no vehicle clusters at
       any of our base locations.
       To put your mind at ease, the database files have the correct
       information and your base is saved. I just have to narrow down
       the cause of it being deleted at server start and all your data
       will be backed up and restored to where you left off.
       It's 4:30am now and I've been working on this database issue for
       some time now. I need to go to bed and get sleep so
       unfortunately I will have to leave the server down and continue
       working on it tomorrow when I wake up.
