Bringing this post up again since a lot of people, including me, are concerned about the upcoming 1.18 explosives and basebuilding balance. Open for discussions and suggestions in the discord aswell, I'll always let my players have a voice.

Update looks promising and exciting! The only thing that I fail to see is some rebalance to basebuilding and health. I'm already running double base health files on a nonmod vanilla server for balance reasons so the next player with 3-4 axes passing by can't just breach a whole gate in 15 minutes, with all the additional explosives coming with 1.18 basebuilding will probably be completely worthless and way too unbalanced, taking the vanilla settings on officials. But we shall see.

There are hackers on console servers aswell, just way less than on PC. Best bet is to find a community vanilla server that fits your needs with trustworthy admins.

Hey abra, just one more question before I'm trying it out, do the basebuilding/raid logs also provide info on who opens dial locks at what position? I'm trying to catch lock scripters but it's hard as long as they don't get hit/killed by anyone. Peace mate.

Thanks mate, will load it up on my server in the next few days and report back as soon as I can!

Small update hit yesterday, now rocking with !kd ratio tracker and playerkill count tracker (only visible for yourself). See ya ingame!

Very interested for my vanilla server, was just about to ask if it was client oder server sided until I read that. Will report back! Edit: No "raid" logs available from what I see, is this still planned (or possible)?

Don't we all... 😜 Pretty sure it is planned to return though.

Check the link in my signature if you want to keep it simple with vanilla - just small changes like base health doubled to make basebuilding more rewarding, and some other colored weapons (camo mosin, green m4..) added to lootpool 🙂

Hello everyone. I've been working on the bec scheduler.xml for the past 3 days and after going through all the old topics here and on other forums, I finally got it working at some point. It does restarts with the warning messages I've put in, it sends the global admin server messages and such but for some reason, it does the restarts at wrong times. For example, one of the automated restarts should happen at 04:00 am and the next one at 10:00am in 6h intervals, now that I went through the server logs the first happened at 03:20am and the 2nd at 07:20am. Why is it happening in 4h intervals and 20min offset? It doesn't make sense in ANY way to me. Thanks everyone in advance. 02:20:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 60 Minutes 02:50:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 30 Minutes 03:05:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 15 Minutes 03:10:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 10 Minutes 03:15:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 5 Minutes 03:16:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 4 Minutes 03:17:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 3 Minutes 03:18:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 2 Minutes 03:19:02 : RCon admin #3: (Global) Restart in 1 Minute 03:20:48 : No Valid response.

All the items have different lifetimes before despawning if not interacted with. If not changed by the server owner the standard lifetime for backpacks is currently 28800 seconds or 8 hours before despawning. Nothing inside will despawn until the bag itself despawns.

OP you don't really seem to know what you're talking about. You seem to be one of those 1-post people that come here for once to just massively complain without contributing anything useful and never return.

Something strange happened on the way from title to post, I can read the title but not the post. 🙁

Why do you think they have an external anti-cheat software, it's easy to just bounce people over to battleye by saying "not our responsibility". Pretty sure they COULD have better anti-cheat, but they don't want to because that would require massive ressources from the team and that would mean less content updates which they seem to focus on still.

I just checked the types.xml of my server and these are the standard lifetimes, considering your server has not modified them: leather shelter 604800 seconds = 7 days (without flag pole), buried items (found as UndergroundStash in types.xml) 1209600 seconds = 14 days Edit: From what I know, the timer can be reset for buried items by just re-burying them again, "interacting" with the leather shelter doesn't count though by just moving items. You'd need to redeploy it again or it will just disappear.

Vehicle persistance works fine on my server aswell, no despawning. But did anyone else notice the insanely fast overheating inside vehicles? What the hell? 😄

Yeah, the restricted ftp access plus the forever restarts/stuck restarts in the gameserver interface were the main reasons why I said to myself, no way man. But I was still setting my server up and had no playerbase yet so changing was easy.

I have tried a bunch of server hosters and nitrado was def the worst of all. I'm glad I left them behind.

That's why you don't play on officials. That's nothing new and there was no battleye/anti-cheat update announced for 1.17 anyway.

Any1 else noticing loot is spawning all in pristine after the 1.17 patch? Spawnabletypes.cfg still starts like that but everything spawns pristine. <spawnabletypes> <damage min="0.3" max="0.7" />

This is what wiping is. All basebuilding components, characters, vehicles etc. are resetted.

Hyped as hek right now. 😁

I really don't see this being needed. All you need is a pea coat or a bomber jacket, some tracksuit pants and maybe something for your head and the chances of catching a cold is almost zero. And if you do, you can simply heal it next to a fireplace or with 1pc tetra.

If you were kicked from the discord (=you don't have the server in your list anymore) and you can't find the server anymore, it sounds like the server owner decided to take it down. Good luck on your search though.
