Items on ground not decaying

Is there any reason that items on the ground would not be decaying now?
I know of some stuff that's just been laying around on the ground for maybe 12+ hours.

New save system this was set to 24 hours. It may seem a bit long we can always shorten the delay. It is intentional the decay time right now though.

Actually 48+ hours. Before the decay used to happen all in one shot durring saves. Now we have to be more careful with any "mass change/delete" as it can cause lag spikes so the way it works now is it just deletes objects a bit at a time. If specific things become an issue (such as people literring in luna) we'll deal with that problem itself.

This will also be good for certain events where objects can spawn on the ground as they'll stick longer.
