Question about collecting items at a hidden place

[BlindOldMan 10]

Just a question, if this is coming up later or if this is implemented already:

 

When I collect items (food, clothes, etc.) and I decide to bring them to a (for me) save and hidden place eg. a deer stand to have some backups if I need them, will the hive save this or will they despawn after a while or when I logout?

 

If this it not possible atm, will it be possible some day?

 

Thank you

In the future Rocket was saying that if you dropped backpacks they will be saved to the hive and would still be there even though the server resets. This of course would be hand in hand with tents (or personal bases). But of course its just a future plan for Dayz and the ETA still remains to be seen. Till that patch, the answer is no. When server resets everything is reset as well.

The items will go away with a server restart atm (servers all have varying restart timers). I haven't played the mod so I can't tell you how it works there because I've heard they got tents.

Search for it. Keywords are base, tent and storage.

I suggest we consolidate the keywords to "hidey-hole"

My favorite was yesterday I dropped a bag in a bush to go hunt a bandit and died. I made it back before the server reset to get it, but I couldn't pick the bag up. But you guessed it, the moment the game finally let me get close enough to the bag to get it, the server reset. Ha

..i tried "base tent storage". nothing... unless, of course, you perfectly well think you understand what "persistent storage containers" might mean ..which however requires a perhaps another level of english knowledge than what perhaps op might have? most things in this world has more nuance than perhaps you have the ability to comprehend ..i'm simply trying to help you gain a better understanding of the world around you...

try playing the mod, you will understand how it will be in future.

 

right now in alpha, saved tents and backpacks are secondary to other imlpements.

 

but rest assured there will be "persistent storage". hopefully not across the hive, but only on specific server (like the mod)

 

that would be perfect and not too stressful for the engine/servers/hive
