2018-12-31 SQL Err, Farm Animal Swarm - Haxus - 12-31-2018
SQL Error
Server logs are reporting an SQL error. This is causing SQL transactions to fail.
Fixed field overflow due to integer that grew very large.
Farm Animal Swarm
Several farms have thousands of farm animals. The farm animal population continues to grow.
Fixed a bug due to ambiguity when old style farms are overlapped by new style farms.
Avatar Empire Change
An avatar who was idle for a very long time reported that their empire changed when they returned.
Removed decay code that caused avatar empire to change.
Designer and Primeval Launcher
In preparation for Steam, the Designer and Primeval World operating modes of the game program should not be selected using a command line option.
Launcher and Client reworked to accommodate this.
- Designer and Primeval world buttons removed from Launcher.
- Entry screen added to the client program that chooses the operating mode.

This explains the rollbacks some players were reporting yesterday. Is this something we should report more urgently if it happens?

Does this mean that the command line options don't work anymore?

The -log option is still there. It has limited usefulness. There is a check box on the settings window that does the same thing. The -log option simply provides an opportunity to log events that might happen prior to opening the settings window.
The -nostyle option probably works but the result is ugly.
Rollbacks are not normal. The symptom indicates data is being lost. It is a critical emergency, when not associated with an official rollback of the universe database, something that is extremely rare and always announced.
I reviewed all server logs. They are clean of SQL errors now. There have been no errors since the servers were brought up new year's eve.

Ok, unless you intent to re-implement the functionality, I'll remove -designer and the old ones from the wiki list.
The -nostyle is interesting, but not very nice to look at yeah.

I'll be sure to inform people that that symptom is critical and should be reported if I see mention of it again.
