See my previous message

Well, the only solution is not to defer ANY state changes and keep the
transactions clear. This is yet another reason for me to think about
dividing the executables, preferrably putting them on different
computers, for the business logic (aka world handling) and data storage.

My solution to that may seem a bit artificial, but just falls in line
with other features - once again, starting point for my project was
'Castle Amber', thus, reflections (in God's sake, can somebody tell me -
is 'reflection' a correct double translation English/Russian/English of
what is a name of all worlds except Amber? Or is it 'shadow'?)
Now,
- Every user has its own piece of reality, where he resides while logged
out. Time is frozen *for the user* while logged out, unless somebody
else managed to intrude into this piece of reality in a close vicinity.
- Also, every user has a potential to create that alternate reality
(reflection, or shadow)
- Every other user has a potential to discover that alternate reality
and break in, unsuspending the time flow in it.
In other words, all realities exist only for your senses and cease to
exist when you leave (but they're still there when you get back).
Don't have time to expand this now, but the keywords here are alternate
reality and terraforming.
