Date/Time: last ~2 weeks
What happened: Items that were in the Backpack when disconnecting are replaced by random loot, this can be everything from trash to common items, tools (so far only hunting knifes) and very rarely even weapons (just had an AKM in my backpack for the first time). the random items in the backpack never had been in the backpack together during the last session. during my last looting run for example i never had an akm in my backpack, i used an akm during that session but dropped it for another gun i found without it ever being in the backpack.
Where you were: more or less everywhere, usually log out in the woods / trees
What you were doing: log in / log out / looting
*Current installed version: 1.7.2.3 (happened on the last 2 patches as well)
*Server(s) you were on: happened on different DE server
*Timeline of events before/after error:
- looting a site (NWAF / Supermarket / Heli Crash Sites)
- walking / driving back to camp (~ 4km - 6km walk at least)
- or taking a break by disconnecting back to lobby
- reconnect
- items in backpack are replaced with random loot
this happens with backpacks i place in my tent as well, had 2 or 3 alice packs with medical supplies and when i took them out of the tent they were full of tin- and empty soda cans.
it looks like this bug has been reported already ( https://dev-heaven.net/issues/32335 ) but i can't find it in the known bugs section over at the dayz wiki ( http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Known_Bugs ) no clue how up to date that list is tho.

ok so the other day we found some tents been saving them up for some time now in our atv and finally decided to set up camp we set up a really good spot got all the tents set up saved them all. Then decided to start to put some things in it got all stocked up night vision range finders ghillie suits camo suits you name it we had it. saved got on the atv to start to find some more stuff. then the server did an update to 1.7.1.1 and the server we were on reset to allow for the change. downloade the new stuff came back put on ghillie suit and sweet finally works, went to check our tents and everything and i mean everything was gone weapons ammo night vision range finders ghillie suits camo suits everything gone after we worked so hard to find all this stuff and to get a camp set up finally and now everything is gone. now that the server is down and is updating our gear is still not back was just wondering if anyone had any luck with tents at all because what is the purpose of them if you can't store anything in there without the server eatting it or it nuking it. we were on server us 229 the vigilant server and player id is 5010944. please look into what is going on with tents or take them out if they are worthless because like i said what is the purpose of them if you take a big risk or losing everything it really sucks this has been weeks of work to get everything to the point we had it and now its all gone just becuase of some stupied tents which is where your sopose to be able to store gear anyways please look into it and find some kind of fix. thanks hope this helps.
you should have at least tried to pitch a tent before you got all that stuff, crazy how you got all that stuff and a vehicle but never pitched a tent, i guess you never needed a tent because of you atv ...
tents are known to eat your gear on server reset, always expect to find an empty tent, i personally have yet to pitch a tent that doesn't eat gear on the first few server resets. i usually place only gear that is very easy to replace in a new tent until it saves at least once, just put in painkillers, flashlights, soda cans or whatever floats your boat in them until those items are still there after a reset, then you can start putting weapons, ammo, tools or food in there, hope your next stash doesn't get eaten now.
don't get attached to your gear. sad but true.

the glitch that happened close to wirefence was gone for me, not 100% if the dayz update is the cause of this but i didn't have this problem last night, anyway it's back for me now and worse than ever, can't see anything if there is wirefence even 300m - 500m away :/
