Server rollback when restarting?

I've had this happen at least twice on my server. The server will have a scheduled restart and when everyone spawns back in, they are "rolled back" to a state they were in a while before the restart, like maybe 1 - 2 hours before. Everything else is normal.

For example, I joined my server about 15 minutes before the restart. I hopped in a plane and went flying. After the restart, I was right back at the airfield, and that plane I had taken was gone. The other players on the server stated they had the items they had in their inventory 2 hours prior.

Has anyone else experienced this? My server host is trying to blame scripts I run, but I don't understand how a script could cause a player's inventory, location, health, etc rollback after a restart.

Restarting your public hive servers should move you over to the new HIVE.

Note: you will notice a slight rollback (a couple of hours).

Edit: Just saw this:

There's still servers on the public hive? Wow.

:facepalm:

I really should pay more attention.

Yeah, my server's on a private hive. :)

No idea then. I'm not a server owner, so... yeah.
