    Hi!
    I had my computer crash when Starmade server was on. The crash was due another program crashing that didn't have anything to do with Starmade.

    Now when I try to start my server, it stops to an error. Here's screencap from the server window:

    It just stops there. Nothing happens on server window and unable to log in with client.


    Is there a way to fix this? I have about 5 players playing on my server and I'd hate to have all their stuff lost forever =(

    ...also there should be some backup system, because a server breaking permanently after a crash is unacceptable.

    Try to remove "chatchannels.tag" from the folder ...Starmade\server-database\world0 (assuming here the universe is named world0)
    then start again

    Wow! That worked. Thank you so much! =)

    Would there have been some way to figure that out myself from the error message? Or was that something that one "has to know"?
