not what people are using it for. they use the first heart to make a giant autism honeycomb wall in front of their second one. limit it to two and take the L on siege golems being a retarded mechanic until they give you the option to disable them

lower servant mission time to reasonable values and adjust any other garbage timepadding mechanics, these servers don't have the longevity to support massive timegates

2x resource on solo servers is worth consideration, basebuilding even with two people on vanilla takes quite awhile of just autoclicking trees and rocks just so you can stick it in an oven and wait an hour for the resources to process
tl;dr consider any and all options that lead to people actually playing the game instead of sitting inside a walled safezone waiting for timers to go down
