Hey, I've been having vehicles in my groups camp for a while now. (inb4 OP is a vehicle hoarding faggot). There's something that keeps coming back to me though which I really wonder about: I know that vehicles despawn after a minimum of 7 days if not used, but do they also despawn if you still save them meanwhile, just not move them? Do I have to put stuff in to get it to stay, or does saving alone work? Let me know, thanks.

Game Mechanics behind vehicles and vehicle spawn?
Raventhorn posted a topic in New Player Discussion
Hello everyone. Fairly new to this, (but we all are in a way, since it`s new) played for about 2 weeks before I made an account on the forum. In those 2 weeks I have played with about 15- 20 of my rl friends, we all have one thing in common, none of us have EVER seen a vehicle (that we could interact with). So my question is how is the Mechanics behind this? I know you can save vehicle on a server and it will stay on that server. But is it like in bf where when a vehicle is "in use" it can not spawn new ones? If there are only a few vehicles I am sure people who spend more time ingame then in rl will just camp these and keep them to themselfs for the rest of the game, leaving us searching the entire map for nothing? I can`t belive we have just been "un-lucky". As I said 15 - 20 rl friends, playing about 2 weeks now, a few hours every day, everyone searching for vehicles (and other stuff ofc). I just wanted to know this so I could stop searching if it`s pointless. Best Regards. -
I had fully repaired a offroad truck and drove it to Green Mountain. When I got to Green Mountain I popped a tire, I got out to fix it and I got kicked off by Battleye Script Restriction #55. When I got back on my vehicle was gone. Is it gone for good?

ok, so i've been looking the past week for vehicles, never to find one except for some broken bus when this weekend the helicopters came out, my mates and i made some flies over the map, actually about 3 hours of flight and no vehicles still i found an awfull lot of tent camps, near obvious spots in the map like Guba or pobeda dam, also i walked around almost the whole map... just trying to state how much time i invested somehow, after checking every spawning spot fr vehicles available on dayZDB and checking every bigger encampment i could find, i didnt even find a damn bicycle i even checked the whole (!) coastline from down west from kamenka up to the north from guba, and i didnt find the motorboat (the fast one) i even checked on every island while doing that how can a boat not spawn at the coast?^^ is it just me, or are vehicle spawns bugged or still able to be saved outside of the map or something?

Me and a friend have been playing on DE 1006 quite a bit over the past 2 days. Yesterday we repaired the heli at skalisty island, flew it off and found a truck, then we proceeded to set up camp over the night. (the heli then blew up as we tried to land on ground that was leaning slightly to the left) When we woke up the tents were empty and truck missing. We thought maybe we were robbed, so we tried again. Much to our surprise the helicopter was there at skalisty again next day, so we repaired it and flew off to find more stuff. After much hard work we had a great base with 4 tents, 3 vehicles and a working helicopter. As we were in our base the server restarted. Now we have a bike where our cars used to be, and the heli is gone. Wtf. The tents still have our stuff in them though. Is this a server specific bug or are vehicles just bugged to shit atm? (yes i saved the vehicles multiple times) Drains all my will to play when nothing is saved after all that work

Logged into the server and noticed two vehicles on top of a nearby building. Not long after I arrived I hear a helicopter spinning up. Nobody can take this many shots with an AKM, nobody. Hacks at it's best. Ban this script kitty please. Time of incident: 21:15ish EST US Location: Middle of Chernogorsk -
Usually, when im out screwing around, i find a couple of vehicles, that being said, most of the time, im either out alone, or, have found a huge cache of vehicles. It would be nice to say, hook a trailer up on a truck and tow the vehicles away, or, maybe tow a boat, even better, link the vehicle up to a helicopter.

Today at 18:45 (GMT+0), playing in a server with some friends, we found a Pick Up Truck, a Bicycle and the Ural Truck. We put some weapons and ammo inside the vehicles. at 19:10, the server went down... We all saved each vehicle and when we came back the pick up truck and the bicycle disapear. The Ural went back to the spawn place. Everything is gone.... What's wrong with this?

THe server I administrate seems to not spawn vehicles, I've checked many towns, including stary, airfield, etc. and no vehicles spawns. I asked multiple users including clans about it and they said they had no vehicles. Is there a possibility there's a bug which makes it so vehicles don't spawn at all?

If I am to continue playing Day Z (Which I really hope I will be able to) the issues with disappearing tent, losing items in tents, and disappearing vehicles needs to be fixed pronto. I cannot progress in this game without the contents of my tent. Now before you say my tent was raided it was not. We had one working vehicle and one that needed repair in a really obsure and very rarely visited area of the map. Yesterday everything was there but the tent items across two servers had vanished.

Hi, Are tents and vehicle saves still bugged? Just logged on and found our 2 tents and bus missing. Doesn't look like it was raided because the tank traps and wire fence are completely gone too. No flattened tents, no nothing. Wondering if the server was wiped and reset? Maybe after another server restart they will appear?

I am the admin of FR 82 recruit server and the server has been up for around 2 nearly 3 weeks and i have only seen 1 vehicle and i have been running round all the vehicle spawn points with no luck of finding anything, i was just wondering if vehicles are spawning correctly or am i just doing something wrong?

Servers not syncing tents/vehicles since heli patch?
Taso (DayZ) posted a topic in DayZ Mod General Discussion
So, like most people, our clan spent some hours today trying to get a brand new Huey. Well, eventually, we found it and repaired it enough to fly it away to our base for further repairs later. Come the server restart, it was gone! (All other vehicles stayed) We looked for it for a while before someone ventured back to Skalisty island, and wouldn't you know it? The thing was there, totally unrepaired. What's more, none of our tents or vehicles saved any gear added to them despite multiple saves. Well, we tried for a THIRD time, this time ensuring plenty of repairs, many saves to all vehicles and tents. Server restarts before I decide to call it a night. Guess where Huey is-- Skalisty island. So- it seems that nothing is saving for us this patch. Anyone else experiencing this? (We lost a lot of good weapons too) -
All the vehicles on my home server reset to their spawn points whenever the server restarts, even if we've spammed "save" on the vehicle. Is there some way to prevent this from happening? It's frustrating spending an entire day building a fleet of 5-6 vehicles complete with backup parts, only to have them wiped.

Just got to love those moments when you have to travel across the entire map, and you get stuck in the car. I feel like sometimes I'm in one of those Ice Cube movies. Makes it more enjoyable when you're in a group with a lot of fun people! http://youtu.be/Y80Lde4rPtw

The other day myself and a buddy got into a firefight with two other players. We had a bus, fully repaired 100% ready to go. We started driving off when two guys each in a tractor drove down the road. Of course a firefight ensued. We were out in an open field trying to get back to the road from where we hid the bus while we repaired it. Ultimately they were able to destroy the buss with small arms fire. This should not be possible! I, in turn focused fire on both their tractors and with 2 clips of ammo from an M4A1 was able to destroy both of them as well. It's just not right. Small arms fire should be able to damage an engine, body, windows and tires. Perhaps cause a leak in the gas tank and make it drain but blow it up? No. Satchel charges, grenades, explosives in general should be the only things capable of destroying vehicles. This is really an issue inherent in ArmA 2 but if it can be tweaked in DayZ then it should be. My 2 cents. Thank you. For those of you wondering...we lost. They had excellent cover behind some walls down on the road. We had nothing but the bus. I managed a few shots that got them up and running for better cover but ultimately they got the final shots off and won. Regardless...they should have won a bus off that with heavy damage to repair.

yesterday me and my clan mates finally managed to fix up a helicopter and fly around with it a bit when hackers came into the server and killed everyone that was on at the time. we suspect that they stole the helicopter and teleported it some where off map...(this also seems to be the case with other vehicles on the server like the Ural) im wondering if theres any spot off map where vehicles can be stashed and not be destroyed or are we just retarded and never been able to find these vehicles anywhere (not even with the helicopter) on map.
-
I realize this is controversial, so I am expecting a lot of "no" from both dupers and non-dupers alike. The idea is to prevent item duping in tents and vehicles. Since Rocket has claimed it is not possible to fix it in DayZ - more radical measures need to be made, and this is one suggestion.

I know there are many problems with server restarts and vehicles, but I havn't read about this happening before. Friend & me found a hilux yesterday, we almsot fully repaired it & only needed engine parts and 2 more wheels. We found those, but the server restarted. We came back to the hilux n it was completely broken again & everything we stored in it already was gone even though we saved it for sure. So we didn't care that much & tried to fix it again. We found the other parts pretty easily (luckily) & got going. We drove around with it for about 5 hours. Then we saved it, logged off & went to bed. Few hours later, we come back & it's gone, back at its spawnpoint completely broken without our gear :| We checked some other spawns & every vehicle was back there again aswell. So is this a known issue? Or is it something that's probably related to the server we were on? We didn't have this issue in the past with vehicles.

So I stored my land-rover on NZ2, and whilst waiting for a mate, I thought I might just jump accross to NZ9 to look for some camps. As soon as I spawned, I turned around and saw several vehicles and tents. Inside these tents and cars, there was roughly a total of 30 NVGS, around 20 Ghillie Suits, roughly 200+ STANAGs, and various other things such as 30+ rangefinders. I didn't take the time to look inside the other cars and stuff, however obviously the clan or whatever that owns these things are hacking. They had about 10 vehicles in total. As I was quickly looking around, I heard a guy spawn in (the sound of someone crouching.) I turned around and saw him on my thermal scope and killed him, the only pat of his name that I remember is that it had an [iRON] clantag at the front. I didn't see anyone else. After I killed him, I ran south to get away from all of it in case more came back, as I stumbled down the hill, I found a Wildcat AH11 which is obviously not in the game. Before I disconnected, I had a look inside, screen shot attached. Note that I didn't take any hacked items. Again, the server was NZ9 which is hosted by ON3 Network. [attachment=1603] -
I'd like to see the 'examine body' show if a body was shot to death or mauled by zombies. As a suggestion, having the option to do the same with vehicles would be interesting.. If it could say "the engine is:" And then something like Hot Warm Cool Cold That way when you find a vehicle, you can tell now long it's been sitting there.

I might start sever hopping on spawn locations, it's a thing I really dislike, but I also think it's unfair that only a few people hoarde all their vehicles in one place, which may even be off map, effectively preventing me from enjoying the full content of dayz. Fucking hoarders, I wanna drive ;_;

Here just my idea to change the way vehicles are in this mod. Firstly apart from the drivable vehicles in this game, all the cars you come across are burnt out and rusting away, I think this should be changed. I believe that all vehicles on the map should be drivable, however they need certain parts to repair. Just because its a zombie apocalypse doesn't mean all the vechiles in the world blow up. To balance this however parts should be as rare as a SVD camo and there should be a set amount of fuel on a server, for instance, a normal server starts with 600l of fuel combined across all fuel tanks, some of the vehicles in the game world would also have fuel in them that you could use or take out off, once that runs out then there's no more to go around. This could introduce people stealing fuel from other vehicles and clans. So basically all vehicles are drivable but it's 20x harder to get the right parts for it. Any suggestions, this thought came to me when I thought of the walking dead and the motorways filled up with vehicles.
-
Should ofcourse be extremely rare and drop at high risk areas, but I'd love to see a camouflage net item that you could apply on your vehicle to cover it up a bit more. (maybe only camouflaging the top of the vehicle to cover from overflying helicopters)

So yesterday I found a vehicle and I managed to fix most of it up, but I couldn't find any engine parts. I realized that you could still drive even without engine parts, so I hid the vehicle in the woods. I'm really afraid to drive it much more in case it blows up or something. I haven't found any engine parts yet though. So I was wondering, how well do vehicles work without engine parts?
