We have an advanced bot system that communicates with our servers to provide players with detailed information and stats.

There are some limitations to how often we can get updates from servers as most of the stats are based on the last game save. Here are some things to consider while reviewing server information and stats on our website:

  • We have our servers set to save every 15 minutes to reduce risk of lost time on servers due to a server crash.
  • Our bot downloads the latest savegame from each server every 30 minutes. Data in savegame includes weather, farm stats, equipment stats, etc.
  • We have our servers set to update the web api every 60 seconds. This data is limited to players online and equipment locations.
  • Our bot checks the servers API for changes in players and equipment locations every 60 seconds. This is where it gets the info for when players join and leave the server.
  • The FSG Companion and our BOT communicate every 5 seconds when when the server link is up.
    • This link includes Game Chat and Discord Chat messages, Money Transfers, Vehicle Transfers, etc.
    • If the link is down, when it comes back online pending transactions will be caught up.
    • While the link us up, transactions may be completed within 10 seconds in most cases.
We work hard to make everything as fool proof as possible, however there are times where things do not work as they should. If this happens please post your issue in our #realismIssues channel with our discord server and tag @RealismIssues so that we can investigate and repair as quickly as possible.
