Disappearing Vehicles

[LiamD 13]

Me and a few friends were on a Chernarus server a couple of days ago when we found a Ural, we stashed a few weapons in it, some food and we had a tent. Lovely. We then proceeded to head North and scavenge for a bit before calling it at night, the next day we log on and the the Ural is gone... along with our weapons, food, ammo...and tent. Thinking someone must have taken it we go for a scout around and find it 8000m away at Devil's castle and then it disappears as soon as we set our eyes on it...bye bye night vision fal.

Last night on the same server me and a friend were in the military tents at Stary and I catch a glimpse of a wheel....IT WAS AN SUV. Freshly spawned it was untouched, until we touched it.... anyway we then drove that around for a bit doing normal Day Z stuff eventually it was a minute before server restart (there was no one else in the server) so we hopped out and waited (our eyes on the SUV the whole time). We log back in to the server (receiving...) , (waiting for chacter to create....) BAM no more SUV.

Someone please explain why we keep losing our stuff, we also found a motorbike and a land rover that we fixed up and they haven't disappeared, so why the Ural and the SUV??

Did you save the vehicle?

If not, that's why.

No, it isn't.

You don't need to save vehicles anymore, that is automatic.

BUT, even when you did need to "save" vehicles, that only saved the items inside of it, not its location.

Ahh so the vehicles could be anywhere but the location we left them, but still with all the gear in?
