Sorry guys XD
If it was me and Mcman, we'll make sure it never happens again.
For those that don't know, Friday me and Mcman made a TNT factory on the FTB server. Made in a relatively short amount of time and not well tested (Mcman had to leave for the weekend) the factory had its bugs. Due to a glitch with the buildcraft pipes, the factory started spewing sand all over, causing the first crash and small rollback. Now, today, I disabled that entire part of the factory in wait of Mcmans return, so this was not the cause of this crash. Instead, I spent my time gathering creeper spawners and finishing up our large creeper slaughterhouse. I knew this would produce and extremely large amount of gunpowder and party bags, so I added a total of 8 diamond chests (3 for party bags, 3 for gunpowder, and 2 for general overflow) to collect the supplies. In this, I used a minimal amount of piping to eradicate any chance of items being dropped onto the ground. Also, spawners only activate and spawn mobs if the player is within 14 blocks of the spawners, regardless of chunkloaders or worldanchors (so pretty much, creepers only spawn if someone is online standing close to them; the factory wouldn't work if we weren't there).
Regardless, it is still possible that something else went wrong that I am not aware of. The first time, I logged in and it crashed while rendering; the same thing happened today. This pretty much assures me that something in fact did go wrong, although I have no idea what.
If it rolls back again and anyone loses stuff, we'll pay for it.
Sorry guys
