you have to go way far out till the screen gets fuzzy and stay there and when your done getting views striaght from there you have to quit to title. you cannot go back because if you do it will save

Well that's fairly easy. There are two options for this.

1) Set the game to Join Only instead of Join and Edit

-this can be done separately for Friends and Guests when you enter your world

2) Stay the hell away from anything you've built. (The "fuzzy" area doesn't matter)

-if you want to get more visitors and you are on Join and Edit for that reason, then you have to stay far away from anything in your world. Fortresscraft only saves on the Host's Xbox. So only the part of the world that is loaded for the host saves. So if you stay in an unbuilt corner of the map and just quit to title and come back in...then nothing anyone did to your world will be saved. Unless of course they come out to where you are and build stuff there. If they come to where you are IT WILL SAVE. So make sure you stay away from anything you care about. Do not go back to your builds before quitting.

-if using this method I would HIGHLY recommend backing up your world onto a USB (thumb) drive every few days, just in case. Though to be fair I ran 24 hours a day for over 3 months and at over 56,000 ppl, (including hundreds of stupid griefers) no damage to my world ever saved.

although this guy is right, be safe. go as far as you can.

Also, if you look carefully around the corners of the map...there are a couple of paths that allow you to go clear to the edge of the world. I usually hid my avatar out there when I really didn't want peoples crap saving around me. Even tearing up the ground can get a bit annoying you know? And if people built enough stupid crap or customs around my avatar, sometimes it would crash my xbox, costing me votes.

Sometimes being at the very edge will crash the game though...the edge/fuzzy area is 8 nodes or 128 blocks wide. I'd recommend once you find that path, just going 2/3 of the way to the edge with draw distance set to 1. That will keep the edge from loading, and thus keep the game from crashing. Being that far out will keep all but the more clever people away from you. And frankly the more clever grief can actually make you smile sometimes :-)

Was curious whether or not I could quote myself. Also, wanted this thread next to the other one.
