Raoul9753 166 Posted May 20, 2014 Well, that bummer just ripped me of all motivation to play today, but I guess I just warn you guys: Dont swim game buggs out and you lose your stuff (in my case: Backpack and Rifle) There goes my weapon, all my ammo, my food... Well, thats it for today. Stay out of the water... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It usually goes : Hide your lootGet in your undiesSwim to that faraway islandLand on the beachGet gunned down A fun variant could possibly be a server restart upon landing on the beach, haven't tried yet.

FrostDMG 398 Posted May 20, 2014 I thought this was fixed in the mod.... I haven't lost any stuff when going into ponds etc (swimming). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZomboWTF 527 Posted May 20, 2014 you do get your stuff back after a while,but when you have a server restart or log out before that happens worse than a respawn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Survivor_Ted 269 Posted May 20, 2014 I suppose it would make sense to lose your ammo when you swim, can't imagine it'd be too good for the gun neither. Swimming with a backpack containing all your shit is also a pretty dumb idea, I'd imagine it would float out or something. Do as you would in real life, if you desperately need to take a swim, then ditch your stuff on the beach before you take a dip. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tatanko 5591 Posted May 20, 2014 In my experience, your backpack and rifle will usually "teleport" back to you after a short time when you make it to dry land and actually stand up. Last time I explored Skalisty Island, I did what RedGuard said and stripped to nothing before swimming across. It was worth it to take some sweet (rare) screenshots of the island. I left my stuff in the lighthouse on the cap and had my buddies protect it (and me). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
