Do items respawn?

 

For example if I loot all the houses in a certain town, will new items appear at some point in those houses? and if so, how long will it take items to respawn?

simple answer: nope

Edit: neither do zombies they reset when servers restart they're looking to patching it but it was designed that way i believe.

Edit 2!: average sever restart time is 4 hours so don't bother waiting you'll starve 1st haha

No items don't respawn...

 

Only when servers restart the loot/zeds respawn ;) (servers restart every 4-6hours i believe) No confirmed <<

Currently loot spawns only happen when the server restart.

Part of the reason there's so much server hopping aboot.

Respawning Zombies & Loot

 

Target Delivery: Early 2014

 

Currently to have the server check if something needs respawning can cause an issue with performance. We did not want to go with a "scripted" solution for respawning, and it is expensive on server performance. Player spawning on the coast is conducted by the engine, and we are going to employ a similar process for managing zombie and loot spawn (possibly parallelized). This is a high priority task and zombie respawn at least is very close to being implemented.
