      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Automatic World Backups on a server?

5 posts in this topic

Hello all,

I have been running a server for a while now with just a few players that I trust. I want to open my server to the public but since there are no mods that provide region or block protection (like world guard for bukkit) I am kind of nervous about doing this.

My question is this:

Is there any program that would allow me to have auto saves of my world so that I can have regular back points to rollback to in the case of a sever grief? I am running the server on my home PC and I am aware that renting a dedi would provide me with what I'm looking for but that is completely out of the question. I cannot afford to rent a server nor would I if I could. I prefer having everything here at home. So again, I'm looking for something that would allow me to have the servers map saved every 30 min or so.

I already tried to run a wrapper called Simple Server. I have used this on a previous bukkit server that I ran and it did what I need right now. Unfortunately it is NOT compatible with forge mods which makes it useless for what I need right now. I just though i would mention that in case someone else thought of it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

On a side note, does anyone else think that it's amazing that no one has made a region protection mod for vanilla servers? Seems to me like it's something that should be in high demand. Would it be really hard/impossible to make a worldguard type mod for vanilla SMP? Also, I do not know how to code so please no posts saying make one yourself.

I just make a backup by hand every day or two. Cuts down on server load doing it automatically more often.

This. I actually had to disable my automatic backups because we were updating so frequently, with new world generation as well.
