Server Reset/Refresh

[[email protected] 0]

Some Joker came into our server with their buddies and pretty much vandalized every key loot spawn point with barb wire and hid every vehicle. Is there anyway to completely refresh your server to respawn like new? I realize that doing this would retract from the game but, in our scenario I believe it is justified. Any help would be appreciated. We use a HFB server and I have tried restarting the server and it still saves everything.

I think there's a way to remove barbed wires - hidden vehicles? Your responsibility for finding them. That's how the game works. Just like every other server.

Removing barbed wires can be done with hand grenades (easily acquired from soldier zombies and deer stands).

Another method (this is what I've been told by a random player) is having an entrenchment pack which gives the option to dismantle/destroy wire fencing.

They intentionally went in and drove them off the map and then bragged about it. Because I killed one of them. They came in and wrapped barb wire around every loot spot. So Basically our server is absolutely no fun whatsoever now. They were named stupid names like from 90's show. One was named Eddie from Family Matters and another was named Joey from Blossom.

If you make a car, the fuel needed, a toolbox and an entrenching tool available, I will work for 2 Cans of beans and 2 canteens filled with water per hour - Driving from town to town to cut down all the wire!

HAHAHA. Sorry they drove off all the vehicles off the map. Then went to another server to do it. Oh well part of the game. Sucks for us.

Ha, yeah. I guess you'll have to wait for the respawn timer to tick down (which I think 7 days is waaay too long, should be more like daily)

Well I read that after 7 days vehicles respawn if they are bugged, destroyed or unused. The barbed wire you will have to deal with yourself

Ive heard barbed wire will be like tents or have a amount of time they take to despawn, like 2 or 7 days. Not completely sure.

At least in 1.7.2.

Bear Traps.... Mmm <3
