Help - lost buildings on zion

Post by Convv »

Hi as you all know i've just sortof come back, and am idling on Zion.

yesterday around 19:00 hours gmt +1, i returned home to find my mine and fuel pump gone.

This is strange, since I repair every day. I'm fully aware one needs to ctrl click the building to be sure how much it is damaged. No more than a day has passed since a full repair.

Everyone else their buildings still seem to be there.
Buildings like general stores and fuel pumps either don't decay or really slowly, makes no sense this one is gone.

Can anyone shed some led on this, since the only thing that matters on that world is money this is quite annoying :)

Any tips on what I can do?
1) I posted here
2) I send off a message to the console thingy

i remember those buildings. i bought em and demo'd em yesterday :P

the inactivity timer got you. if you don't log in after 5 game years (6 days, 8 hours) your stuff goes for sale. the *lasthere command said you hadn't logged on since year 991, so when year 996 came around, your buildings went for sale for less then 10s.



now then, i know you haven't been off for 6 days.
the only reason you went inactive is because the inactivity timer only looks at when you *log in*, which is a bug i reported back in november. even if you log in and sit on the world for 6 days 8 hours without logging off, the game will think you've gone inactive and put your buildings for sale despite the fact you never logged off. simply because the last actual 'log in' action was 6 days 8 hours ago.

when i see you on, i'll give you the 2k i got from your stuff.
