Weird Decay On official

I noticed weird decay symtoms, at first it was on an server with loads of ? russians or greek dunno.

This is/was on #1041

This server crashes randomly but alot, and stays out for like short times about ten minutes.

This: Last week all decay of any build was timer “-”

But/and when i touched it with my hammer it went to 240. ( for all builds i encountered. thats weird.

So i like reset some builds to 240, when i got out of rendering regions and came back - reset again, they where a few minutes down but seem to be stuck, some did not and so some decay timers seems to run. But i could reset all with my hammer to 240.

That was weird never had that before.

But hey CE , dont worry be happy.

So-

But the other day on another server, (#1040) on a build about to decay ( 33 hours left) was reset to 240 - no player was present that moment.

Could be the hammer of me who touched it, but it could be some “dont let base decay” exploit no idea, just giving heads up to it.

It’s all vague and its like so random i did not have any more info, just sayin to alert you all/those interested to it.

I can’t speak for the PC people, but on console after the disastrous misconfiguration last week with benches accessible to everyone and living settlements active all timers were set back to 240h and seem to start ticking not before someone comes in render distance.

If the decay timer is a " - " that means it’s paused and there is no decay on the server.

Currently many servers have paused decay timers due to the DDoS attacks/crash hack attacks going on.
