I guess I missed some patch notes, but the option to NOT feed thralls and pets is missing for PRIVATE servers.
Really? …or am I mistaken?
OK, good - Thanks!
BUT they did add in the THRALL DECAY system which is SEPARATE from the building decay system. It is NOT proximity based but decay is linked to log in … if the thrall/pet owner fails to log in within the time window set by the server owner the ALL their thralls will despawn. On the official servers the thrall decay time is set at 15 days.
so if your private server has building decay turned OFF and it’s intended that players can keep their buildings for extended periods without logging in, then the server will need to have the disable thrall decay enabled … or 15days after they last logged in …bye bye thralls/pets.
I have decay turned off…thx for the info!
This option was fully taken out in the last patch, but was on the way before.
You have several discussions going on about in the pc update and bug section if you want read more about.
