One of the devs tested things this morning with a new mission - all is working OK with regards to persistence and vanilla factions. So for that mission the possibilities are:

• outdated ALiVE modules - you must open the mission in the editor, note module settings and delete/replace them, re-save mission
• you are not using the latest plugin for ALiVE - log into your War Room account and download the plugin from there or from the link on this forum
• possible mod conflict although if it's worked in the past that is unlikely

Are any of the missions on the site set up with all of the persistence settings in place? I'd like to see this for myself so I know what I should be expecting upon server restart.

If not, could someone do a quick edit to one of the existing ones for me?

Sorry my mis-understanding... in order to make things persistent you need to:

• change each ALiVE module setting to turn persistence on (if the option exists in the module.. if not don't worry about it)
• add the ALiVE Data module and adjust settings

That's it.. assuming of course you have a functional War Room account and you are running @aliveserver mod on the server itself.
