    Like I said, never had that happen, so not sure how it's happening to you.

    Try using it that configuration yourself. I think its because i used an old editor, well anyway its tested im sure its this mod and i also have no idea how this can happen.

    It doesn't delete your saves, no matter how much you'd like to believe that it did. Consult your GSP.

    If you are saying this its because you tested right? i dobut you did. Here is the config i used http://pastebin.com/p5TeN3JP . Here is what i did: Install the loot spawn lists lua file, use that config file. When you try to login you will get stuck trying to connect and when you uninstall your world will be deleted.

    For starters, I don't have to "install" or "uninstall" anything. I have FTP access and simply add or remove .luas from the corresponding directory. There is no reason whatsoever that removing a .lua that doesn't interact with inventory or world saves would cause them to be deleted.

    I guess you didnt understand what i did. Let me go step by step: installed the latest .lua file with that config i was talking about, restarted the server, after the restart is done you cant join the server as i said you get stuck trying to join, after removing the .lua file and restarting the server i log back in and surprise world deleted. Anything else you need to know? All via ftp

    @0zero: When I used this plugin for the first time I screwed up the list a couple of times, but that only resulted in error logs and/or missing/screwed up loot. I've restarted my server countless of times with and without the plugin and it never corrupted anything. The only indication I've ever had of people losing saves is because they restarted their server too often and before it was fully booted. A good way to check if it fully booted is try to connect and wait until you spawned in-game.

    I don't know where you got these items in your loot tables file, but they cause the server to not start, which coupled with what @Frop mentioned above, likely lead to your issue as the Rust server hadn't fully loaded by then, and would throw out errors and never fully start.
    Code:
       "$promise": {},
   "$resolved": true
    Where did you get your file from?

    Also, you are using ZombieLootList instead of AILootList from the recent Rust patch that removed zombies. That wouldn't cause this, just would cause no items to spawn from red/mutant animals.

    @0zero @Wulf : Additionally, wouldn't that only corrupt rust_island_2013.sav? There should still be a good number of .sav.old.#s even with the default settings.

    Correct, unless the host wipes those for some odd reason.

    I got the file using a web based editor, anyway it does cause the map to get wiped i dont know how but it does.

    Like I said, Oxide doesn't touch the world. If your world is getting corrupted, it's from your Rust server not starting/saving/stopping properly. If you make the above edits, your server should start fine.

    My host is fpsplayers but i doubt that they would do something like that without warning.

    I've seen many hosts wipe world saves with uninstalls/installs/upgrades.

    Maybe because its an invalid configuration the world gets corrupted and therefore wiped.[DOUBLEPOST=1393957389][/DOUBLEPOST]
    Im doing all by ftp not using anything more than that

    It's because your server isn't starting/stopping properly because of the error. The plugin alone is not corrupting your saves.

    But it is the cause for the server not starting/stopping properly

    That may be, but the plugin itself is not wiping your save, your server is likely not saving or corrupting them. Either way, whatever editor you used added those values that caused the server to not start. I have no idea what those are, as they aren't used anywhere in the plugin.
