What do the devs do during server restarts?

[sensei_tanker 3,098]

A lot of times, for instance yesterday, the devs screwed something up with the MMS and it didn't work right after the server restart.

 

We probably aren't told about minor fixes such as changes to physics, optimization, etc but what do the devs do during server restarts that screw the game up?

Well, that's not really a question for the general forum audience, but I assume the tweaked something and it cause an unpredictable issue to arise. I have no experience in programming, but based on what I've heard others say, with software you can change one small thing, and then another completely unrelated thing will just completely crash in the most disastrous way.

with software you can change one small thing, and then another completely unrelated thing will just completely crash in the most disastrous way.

And the reason is bad code (everyone knows that already) so it is completely normal to see errors everywhere. Good code = NO ERROR, tanki online = ERROR

No, the process is automatic

Then how do major errors occur after server restarts? If the devs aren't changing any code, then why do things not work?

Maybe they just restart the servers? I don't know.  :ph34r:

Restock their supplies of vodka of course.

They have a brainstorming session for those 5 minutes of reboot.
