    Nothing really. I had tried them and had some problems with them so I decided to make my own so I could have more control and fix any issues I had. The only real difference I can find is that it is a simpler plugin (it doesn't have any commands or permissions nodes). I really only put it on here so other people could use it if they thought it was useful.

    This plugin is very simple and lightweight, great.
    Thank you.

    It saves all worlds on the server.

    If you want to compete with Simplesave you really should add more features, especially the ability to send the backups to a specific directory. I'm done with SimpleSave as it's caused a lot of damage/problems to my worlds so if your plug had comparable features without being volatile like SimpleSave i would definitely use this.

    I wasn't really intending to compete with other save plugins. I just wanted a small plugin to save all my worlds especially since backing up the map while the server is running doesn't seem too safe to me.

    Good luck. SimpleSave is hopelessly bugged and the author can't seem to figure out the problem (on top of being borderline hostile to users) so there's still plenty of room in this category.

    EDIT: Changed to clarify which plugin I meant. Apologies and I truly do mean good luck, Krotn :D

    I think arsjet is not asking for help, he just says ServerSave is not compatible with bukkit 974/996. Thanks to him.
    Bronski, you say SS is hopelessly bugged... what kind of problems do you have? 'Cause I haven't get bugs since I used SS.

    Oh, and borderline hostile to users?
    Serious? In this thread?

    Does this issue happen each time it saves? Yes it could be due to it not being compatible with bukkit 974. Sorry for the length in reply, I was out of town until this morning.

    I could make some special builds for 974 and 996 if you need them and see if that fixes the problem. I'll work on that.

    Edit (side note):
    Oh and the reason the plugin still thinks the save was successful even if an error occurs is that the actual saving process seems to happen in a very disconnected way and any exceptions that are thrown by it aren't caught by the plugin. I see some problems like this on by server (CB 953) really really rarely and they is usually fixed by the next save (on my 10 minute save loop). If I ever find out the reason for these random problems I'll fix it ASAP.

    Edit 2:
    Try version 1.1 it should be fixed there. If you see this again, let me know.

    Oops, I meant SimpleSave. Same abbreviation, my stupid mistake! :/

    Editing the above post to clarify.

    Oh ha ha I see what happened! I should have chosen a more creative name for my plugin. :)

    Does not happen every time.
    An error has occurred in about 8 hours period.
    saveFrequency = 1740s

    I see these sorts of errors too when I run it on my server. They seem to only happen rarely and I don't know where they're coming from. Let me know if they're fixed in v1.1.
    I can try making a small change to the saving procedure, I'll post an update here.
    If you install it could you let me know if this problem persists.

    Edit: The version I was talking about is v1.1 it should maybe fix these problems because the save task is now synchronous. The only problem with this is that your server will lag badly while the maps are saving because the saving happens in the main server thread. This is the only thing I can think of that might cause this issue.

    Very nice! I've searched for soo long testing save plugins only to be dissapointed with errors.
    Finally one that does what it's meant to do.
    Thank you!

    Its very small as a plugin :D. But could you add warnings on intervals or is that too heavy?

    Krotn

    Warnings as in every x minutes it says something?
    If you just want a plugin to announce stuff on a timer you could try:

    No like warnings when the save will come so they can perpare for some minor lag. Such as "30 seconds until world save".

    Krotn

    I could probably do that. I'll see about making a new version.

    I have an experimental version of the plugin with warnings here. I haven't had time to test it yet (I'll probably get to that this afternoon). So if you're willing to take the risk and try it out you can do so but it is experimental so it might be better to wait for it to be tested.

    Version 1.2 is out. I tested it and the warnings seem to work. If you find any bugs, let me know.

    Yeah, thank you, can you make it save the world on server shut downs? Like control panel compatible. And make it a configurable option? :D thanks for doing that.

    I am not sure of how to listen for server shutdowns. All my research into this has turned up empty. :( If anyone knows better I would appreciate a tip.

    Is this like /save-all?
    Does it saves the player inventory?

    Krotn

    It should save players and their inventories. It saves the blocks in all worlds, then executes savePlayers() on the server.
