When you create the new server, green or whatever, out of the hundreds/thousands of changes, how do you remember that this change was applied?

How do you know whether this change should be applied at the beginning of Velious and not this point in the timeline?

How do the other devs on the team know what you just did?

You also left out testing, conveniently. And did you do this directly in production?
Except - I don't care about those OTHER changes. I don't care about timeline changes. I don't care about Green shit. I was asked on implementation of specific feature - I got it under 5 min. And testing in this case is done by repoping npcs in question - even server reset is not required. Again I am NOT rewriting any part of the code that actually requires testing.

"How do the other devs on the team know what you just did?" - you put it into log. "Updated npcs flags set BLA to X/Y - see this sql line"

The people who invented the first space ships were brilliant. That doesn't mean anybody should actually want to use them 200 years later. Ideas are limited by means of execution. Everquest has amazing ideas that need to be completely reworked in their execution, in order for classic Everquest as it was envisioned to actually exist and continue to be relevant as things have evolved.
