Does the in-game time continue even if the server is empty?

Basically what the title says. Does the in-game clock continue running even if no one is on the server? I'm thinking about buying a server for a few friends, but we have pretty inconsistent schedules so I would hate to be gone a week and return for our game in Winter and all our food rotted.

No, need at least one player to run in game time.

Not by default. There's a setting "PassTimeWhenEmpty" in serverconfig.json.

Oooh thank you. Good to know !
