So it's not actually 1.7.3 it's just DayZ Redux code containing fixes which should have been implemented months ago. Where are the dogs you promised 2 months ago? This should just be 1.7.2.7. I am disappoint.

I have this problem too, I have gone so far as formatting my whole PC and redownload everything to try and fix it which didn't help (it needed a format anyway). I have always suffered from this problem since I started playing a few months ago. The game runs fine for a few minutes and then it won't let me eat food or drink, just as you described. I right click the item in my inventory and left click the green box which pops up. When I click it the box stays open and the food remains in my inventory. Some 20-30 seconds later the eating animation will happen, the food will disappear but my food icon will remain red. Related to this I am often unable to provide medical aid to other players, repair vehicles, construct tank traps/barbed wire and I'm even unable to pickup vehicle parts but other loot works fine. Other people I'm playing with do not suffer these problems. I have recently noticed that if I go to a tent or vehicle the 'save' prompt in the action menu will always be there even if I am miles away from the tent/vehicle. When I'm driving vehicles I do not see all the roadblocks in towns and can drive straight through them. The only way to fix these issues is to log out and log back in which only fixes it for another 2-3 minutes. Restarting the whole game fixes the problem for a longer period of time but it happens again within 15 minutes. EDIT: This only seems to happen on a vilayer private server that I play on. I have just played for an hour+ on a public server and everything worked fine. Which server is OP playing on? I'm now thinking this problem is internet related but I have a reliable BT connection with 2mb/s download speed. I have tried forwarding ports but the BT homehub 3 is notoriously rubbish with port forwarding. I don't have another router to test with. I'm also thinking this could be linked to my player ID. Is there any way to get it reset? I am launching with DayZ commander running full Steam versions of Arma 2/OA. I have tried launching with Six launcher and the problem persists. I have fresh installs with no other mods installed. I'm running an i7 930 with 12gb ram and a gtx 560ti which gives me plenty of fps so it's not an issue with my PC. EDIT: I've now realised that when I'm no longer able to eat/drink etc. the (Esc) menu changes from saying: Save (greyed) Restart Respawn (greyed) Options Abort to: Skip Restart Respawn Options Abort Once the menu has changed all the buttons are clickable. I've tried clicking Skip but nothing happens. I daren't click Restart or Respawn because I have full kit and don't want to lose it. Anyway, it's as if the game thinks the mission has ended. Can OP check if his problem is similar? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
