Backups

[Sarah_U.]

Summary (a quick, 2-3 sentence summary):
Do character file backup and retrieval for problems encountered like the 30/05/2017.

Benefits (How this will benefit the server and game as a whole):
Less hassle to redo heavely modified character slots.
More safety, always nice.
QoL improvement.

Details (Description of how you think this would work, the benefits, etc):
Do a periodic backup of all character-related files and content everyday or so. Server administration can probably handle that, otherwise a manual github copy could do so.

Implementation (Optional, if you have an idea how to implement it):
N/A

We do have backups, and the files.

The problem is that the files are no longer compatible with our new preferences system as we changed how some of the options worked.

This happens with development sometimes.

[Sarah_U.]

Ah, expected it to some extent, but isn't there a way you could fill in most of the values that're still compatible?
Also two other sidenotes:
1) Lock plz.
2) All my other slots are kept alive and filled.

Locking.
