I recently rented a server from indifferent broccoli, and it's been going well, but today I loaded into the server and more than 2 weeks in-game had progressed, which rotted all of our food. We'd lose a ton of progress if we reverted to the last save. So I have two questions:
1.) SHOULD time be passing when no player is logged in? I had tested this the first day I configured the server and I didn't think this was the case (logged out and re-logged 30 minutes later and the date/time hadn't changed). I have one friend who played on the server late last night but they didn't leave the game running, otherwise their character would have died of starvation.
2.) Is there any way to cheat my perishable food back to life? Does debug mode work in multiplayer? I wouldn't think so, but I guess I'm about to try.
