@ Derptini & Styxx42 you are most welcome! Happy to provide some insight where I can.

Originally posted by Ostseekrabbe: Hmm I remember having posted a couple mails explaining roundabout 7 undermesh-exploits to the intended address many months ago. The oldest is over a year now.
Never got a reply from the devs, for instance that they've read it.
Most of them are fixed now, but heck took that long.

We always read our emails regarding exploits. They won't receive a response most of the time unless its for a bounty. In regards to undermeshing exploits, if it involves map issues then they typically take longer and we try to do more at once vs a single one here and there because it takes a lot of time from our LDs and adds significant time to our patch cooks, testing, and larger downloads for the players. Actual exploits using various objects (like climbing picks or sleeping bags) are usually handled in a more reasonable time though as we have several programmers that are able to work... Read more

Metrics refers to some of our backend data that we use to track various things. One of which is mesh detection.

You can revert to the backup save at any point by renaming one of the timestamped files to just 'Ragnarok.ark[\b]. Make sure you keep the original Ragnarok.ark file though in case you need to go back to it if something is wrong with your backup save(s).

Not being able to load the full list usually is attributed to your connection. In short its an issue querying with Steam. As above, I'd recommend trying to use battlemetrics or similar sites for a more comprehensive list as these work on a cached system rather than direct Steam query like we have in-game.
