We had some issues with our server last night where it was just kicking people trying to join back to menu, we restarted the server yada yada and it continued to work, however over night something happened and nobody could join the server, same thing and console would go nuts, I checked the backup saves and there was an 8 hour gap in the saves between 11:30pm and 8am (where ever our server host is based). The 11:30pm save works, the 8am one (and presumably every save after) doesn't. I have attached both saves in a zip file.

some people reported they lost 30 minutes to an hour of progress although there were no other saves in that time

Thanks for the report, we'll look into it when we can.

with the addition of direct connect we have switched to that because the server keeps returning to a state where it refuses logins with the invite code method. we have restarted our server with a new one and then just overwrote it with our world and then since moved to a completely different server provider and generated a new world and then overwrote the world with our world and it still only works with direct connect.
Could this be a case of fixes not applying retroactively to existing worlds and will only really be fixed by starting a new world?
the only real annoyance of direct connect is it not keeping a history of servers so you can just select it and enter the password again like invite codes
