A server being night time is an admin issue unless you're playing on official which in that case, God speed. Also, gun lights point in the direction you aim your gun in, if you want a light to point in the direction you are looking try a headtorch. Anyways I'm with everyone else if you want a server on your time, find one that's non official or a different time zone host.

30 slot server, 10 people max at a time. Server shut downs are normal scheduled and never had a crash to my knowledge and our tents vanish for no reason. Bases and walls have started vanishing as well and we didn't have issues with this for some time. We do backups so I mean we don't lose too much but it's a bandaid on a leaking roof.
-
We used one from Tisy to the Stary tents and it was very clear.

Oh by no means am I implying they are unaware. They would have to be completely oblivious to miss the rampant protests that happen on these forums. However with the lack of road map at the start of December (unless I completely missed it) I'm hoping for some clarity on this one primary issue that is the keylog in our proverbial dam.

Had this same issue. After testing I found out swimming in freezing cold water? Yeah no problem man. Them steaks got some strong mojo.
-
Sorry to say but we still need more info. Did you get it right before server restart? Did the server crash before you lost it? Did it crash any time between when you logged out and logged back in? Are you positive without a doubt that it didn't crash during that time?

It's... weird. We save persistence on the regular and the wierd stuff involves barricades and such staying up for a long, long time. Like, weeks. We can't figure out what will stay and what will not because it's 100% random when stuff vanishes so we can't tell if it's players or server. I still say your best bet is to admin save daily and keep doing it until they pit something reliable into effect.

We (and by we I mean I) adjusted my server to completely remove food from zombies. It can be done by the server admin on community servers. I'm Bordertown: https://discord.gg/7QHAnWn, I set it so there is very limited can foods and absolutely no food spawning in bags, clothes, or zombies foe the same reason you listed. My players enjoy it greatly as it adds more of a survival feel to the server. I can find the files you need to adjust if you would like.
-
I'd be curious considering proper tracking programs like track IR do not. Sadly I can't give you a real answer other then the above info.
-
Your best course of action is to find a community server with an active admin who is doing persistence saves right now. We don't have major wipes but we get missing tents now and then. My server has been fairly stable lately since we started doing this so.. yeah.

Because almost every issue that is brought up has been beat to death on this forum at one point or another since 1.0 launch. Some people don't even search this forum, or even use Google to search for an issue before they decide to make another thread about it I know we have a thread about ghost bullets because I've replied to that three different times. To come here and claim that you have no idea about it is stupid and shows laziness because if you search this site on the first page of general discussion there are no less then two threads there. If you can't find it there check bug reports. I mean at this point there's absolutely no excuse why people haven't read about one of the well known bugs except laziness. That's why I'm annoyed all to hell at some of you people. Before you make ANOTHER thread instead of taking 5 minutes and see if it's already been talked about. Sorry not sorry.

On my server we already spawn helis, granted the loot at then is garbage.

Information you probably need to know, but had no idea.

3. Improvised backpack. In order to make an improved backpack we will need a couple of things: A: A burlap sack (Found in most industrial spawns, or farms) B: Two (2) sticks (Use a cutting tool and chop down a bush, then use the cutting tool on the long stick to create two short sticks. You can also use an Ax/Hatchet on a log, but let's assume you're a fresh spawn) C: Rope (Rope spawns in industrial areas but you can also craft one with twelve (12) rags in two piles of six (6) by combining them together) The first step is to create a courier bag. This is created by using your burlap sack and dragging your rope over the bag and you will get an action to craft the items together, doing so will cause it to either spawn on your back, or the ground, depending on the DayZ Gods whims.Now that we have a courier bag, let's craft a improvised backpack. Take the short sticks into your hand and drag your courier bag over them (insure the bag is empty). You will get an action to craft an improvised bag, once you do this it will either spawn on your back or the ground. Improvised backpacks have a dull brown color that blends in better then Talloon backpacks and has more room to them then a school backpack. In fact, an improvised backpack has the same space as a Talloon backpack. -

2. Ghillie suits and you Ghillie suits are a crafted item made with burlap sacks and netting. Netting can be found along the coast in industrial spawns and in the boats you find along the waters edge. Burlap sacks can be found in most industrial spawns, but I have found them in farms as well. In order to craft a Ghillie suit you will need some burlap strips and netting, let's start by making a Ghillie head cover and i'll let you figure the rest out for yourself. In order to make a ghillie head cover you will need the following items: One cutting tool, one netting, and two burlap bags. Let's take the two burlap bags one at a time and place them over your cutting tool, you should get the option to cut them into strips : Do so. Once you have cut both of your bags up, you will have two burlap strips. Take the netting you have into your hand and drag the two strips over it. You should get two options : Craft Gun Wrap, and Craft Head Cover, we're going for a head cover so let's do that. Craft the head cover and once complete it will appear in your local area, pick this up and put it on your hand. Congratulations, you've crafted your first ghillie piece! Bonus : Take the ghillie piece off your hand and put it on the ground. Taking a low caliber weapon, shoot the ghillie head wrap. Pick the wrap up, it should be damaged. With duct tape, repair the ghillie wrap until it is worn. The item will still appear tan to you, but if you drop it on the ground the Ghillie head cover will be green. Place it on your head and it will be tan, however, everyone else will see it as green. -
I strongly recommend anyone playing on anything other then a server with an active admin. Not even joking. With all the base building issues, tents poofing and stuff i've heard about it just doesn't make sense to NOT play on a server that has an active admin.

Just a friendly bump to the top and an update. Since posting this, our community has grown in fairly good leaps and bounds. The groups we have active there are .... friendly... in their own ways, and the community has been helpful. With some tweaks to the server we have attempted to make it feel more like an apocalypse and less like a larger game of Loot Gatherer 2 : The Gathering! We've had some pretty good roleplay action, and a lot of it is completely random. You too could join us, just hop in the Discord posted above for information on how to join and learn more about our groups. We hope to see you there!

It's under... Of crap... lemme get back to you. It's like.... Putting this here for edit purposes later. I'll be back when I get to my pc. At work right now.
-
Um, no... no they're not. If they are for YOU then it's on your end, not the games. As someone who spends a lot of time dealing with zombies with a knife or axe I can promise you that heavy melee is not the default swing anymore. Do what the man says and delete your config and download it because you done got something messed up.

If you're on a community server check your types.xml file under mpmissions. You can adjust where items spawn there.
-
So a bit of a back story. In an attempt to give my server some more meat for them to sink their teeth into, we starts added items to Types.xml to get them out and above. The first was the Smersh Vest, while it's buggy, it works and otherwise can be used as a vest (if you don't mind the bag being at your feet). The second thing we started spawning was green Kevlar helmets, the Nato blue ones painted green. Since paint is not in the game, we wanted to give people an alternative from the Gorka helmet, so we gave them this. The helmet works perfectly, soaks damage normally and does not clip, so success.... Then came the Ghilli suit. Currently, the game has no way to MAKE green Ghilli suits so we started spawning them in through the Types.xml. Unfortunately, I can't get them to appear, and i'm not sure what I did wrong here. I did the exact same thing that I did for the helmets and they worked but the Ghilli won't even come in. We can make the ghilli suit in a brown version (tan) so I know the model is in, but they won't even spawn the tan version. Here's my current code for it : <type name="GhillieAtt_Mossy"> <nominal>10</nominal> <lifetime>5600</lifetime> <restock>1800</restock> <min>5</min> <quantmin>-1</quantmin> <quantmax>-1</quantmax> <cost>100</cost> <flags count_in_cargo="0" count_in_hoarder="0" count_in_map="1" count_in_player="0" crafted="0" deloot="0"/> <category name="weapons"/> <usage name="Military"/> </type> Now the first thing I think I should do is up the minimum because it's spawning at ALL military locations and that might help, but can anyone else see anything there that might be causing it not to spawn? Edit : Something community admins might want to know, you can do this in your server. It doesn't require mods, it doesn't require your players to add files or anything. This is a server side adjustment that can be made by anyone with access to their servers main files. This gives your players more to play with, and also lets you learn a little server coding to boot.
-
Sorry that you didn't spend the 30 seconds required to find the answer somewhere else. I'll put it here instead so you have type less. The problem is ghost bullets, the devs are aware, the fix is coming. I don't think we needed another thread about this but people keep proving me wrong. Oh, right, the FIX for Ghost Bullets is on the forums as well.
-
Their nominal are turned off. They're in the game just set to not spawning more then likely because of issues such as not working, mesh, or something else.
-
Oooor....just play my server! Yay shameless promotion!
-
Play my server! No ghosting at all!??

Do you not want updates to the game? Do you not want them to try to fix the bugs? What are you getting at here? Can you not just say "Thanks for the update, guys. Merry Christmas.", like a normal human being instead of coming out with this nonsense?
