Its quite annoying to plan a 7 days blitz bar production in this game with real life when the random downtime affects the outcome. It is already pain in the *** to keep this thing lit for a week.
How much time do i have to take blitz bars out and cool it so it wont get dross.. server has been down about 5 hours this week .. and it does not match my Salem plans for the weekend now.
So what are you devs/mods offer for solution?

Now imagine the process would not be affected by downtime... then it's about time to get them out and then appears a wild server crash, and stays long enough so all your stuff is dross.

Neither solution is really good, but better have downtimes prolong things than the other option.

I understand, i'm just upset, because i know i cant be online on that time .. due to the 5 hours delay. Sadly i have real life too and have to plan stuff like that.

I always try to time it at the beginning of my "playtime" so i can still get it when it shifts a few hours.
