Hi, 

I've had a player who has pointed out that it's possible to duplicate items during a server restart. 

you can duplicate anything you want on your backpack after a server restart i tested it yesterday with 4-5 c4 after snow was telling it in chat and he's right ...

When you put items in your backpack it doesn't get rolled back after the restart

so if you put items in your backpack and then the server rolls back, the items get duplicated as they stay in the box
Snow: but don't get removed from your backpack

By setting backpacks to online save during server save would this fix this problem?

Many Thanks

By setting the backpacks to save during the server save, it means they are saved when the map and all other server data is saved. This makes sure the backpacks are consistent with the rest of the data.
Otherwise backpacks are saved every time they are closed. That can lead to an issue as the one you're describing, where the backpack saved the items but the map was saved earlier, where the player still had the items in their inventory.

I believe that's still the default. The one problem with this is that backpack content is reset to whenever it was last saved when you reload the plugin.

I'll have to document that better.

Thanks Laser, in theory as long as it's only reloaded when a server restart happens no one should be down anything.
But currently i had a few players waiting for the server restart warning. Stuffing all there high values items in the backpack to so they could dupe them.
