This is from a server on Nitrado and I have limited control over it. There's no obvious way to revert to an earlier version.
Anything else we can do?
 
Reproduction Steps
Starting v2.5 dedicated server

The first error in the load out suggests:

2025-12-18T15:02:08 15.200 WRN Type:DewCollector was missing when we looked it up via Type.GetType()
2025-12-18T15:02:08 15.200 ERR XML loader: Loading and parsing 'blocks.xml' failed
2025-12-18T15:02:08 15.203 EXC Class 'DewCollector' not found on block cntDewCollector!
This is not verifiable when using another server hosting company, or attempting a home based dedicated server on this latest update.
Quite possibly one for Nitrado to resolve.
 
For the dew collector,
V2.4 used class "DewCollector".
V2.5 uses class "Collector".
There is potentially a mismatch of files or loadout.
