I'm pretty sure the server I was on disconnected while I was flying. Where will my helicopter spawn at? The point where I last saved it on the ground, or somewhere where I was flying over? Anybody know? Thanks.

It's pretty weird. Anything I put in the cars save, just not the tents...

On my server, I have scheduled restarts every 6 hours. I noticed that during schedule restarts, and even some restarts I do manually, when I come back into the server, all my vehicles and tents are gone. Tents that have been here for days disappear, as well as vehicles. When I restart the server again, manually, all these tents and vehicles spawn into their regular position. Can anyone explain this? My second question: I keep putting stuff into my tents, then saving the tents, but then the items keep on poofing. I have one tent that I set up a week ago, and it managed to save everything I put inside it, but all my new tents keep poofing items. Is the problem that my server has desynced from the hive? The last couple of times I've put stuff in my tents, it was after 4+ hours of play, with no server restart. Should i bet putting stuff in my tents at the beginning of a restart or something? Thanks.

On my server, some guys did a pretty good job putting up barbed wire and tank traps everywhere, which is obnoxious. I went around with my toolbox and took down the ~20 traps in Cherno. When the server restarted, the wire was back up everywhere. I tried again with my toolbox and took everything down, then restarted server 5 minutes later, but again, all the traps were back up. Is there anything I can do to change this? It's not cool that I have to go around taking down kits all the time.

I was wondering if anyone could give me some help with managing the server. Is there anyway to despawn any vehicles that go off the map, or any tents that go are set up off the main map? Also, I'm downloading, for the first time, the scripts.log .5 gb file... From what I gather, I have to look through this by hand to figure out if someone has been running scrips. Can all I do as admin, be to look through scripts.log and try to find something noteworthy and investigate that further? Thanks for the help.

true, but I had just hopped servers twice and killed a guy, who didn't deserve it. The only thing I didn't deserve was spawning in the air... My karma was fully balanced at the end, imo.

I'm 4 days old in this game, but learning fast. I had all the necessary gear to survive and an AKM. I play with just my brother and have the "shoot first, disarm and taunt while unconscious" mentality. We collected everything we needed from towns and one player in SS. Well, my brother logged for the night so I hopped onto US Seattle 79 to just gather supplies. I spawned near the NW airfield, 20 meters in the air. I died instantly when I hit the ground. I ran straight to get my stuff, but it naturally disappeared before I got there, 45 minutes later. Losing blood from thirst, at around 9k blood - I didn't do anything but run straight to airfield - I looked through the high yield bunkers, finding an AK. As I left, I heard a pickup pull up, so i ran around the corner. He was easy. Estatic, I now had ~50% of the gear I had before the server f-ed me. I deserved the loot, and got my first vehicle on top of that. From here, I hid the truck and healed myself. But, I still needed basic hunting and med supplies, so I started server hopping to collect supplies (I know... i'm a noob with noone to play with and just lost everything. don't tell my brother, since he doesn't approve of exploits). The second server i found, i spawned right behind a poor victim in the bunker. He had much to say in side-chat when I emptied 6 revolver shots, RELOADED, and emptied another 3 into his motionless body (Note, I still don't know how many shots it takes to kill people) From his body, I was up to around 90% of the stuff I had previously. I was ready to log for the night, when another server hopper spawned in the SAME spot i had spawned in. I turned around, sick, and tried to hide in the bathroom. He killed me with his silenced weapon, then logged out (i guess he didn't need anything?). Got what I deserved again.
