herd 69 Posted June 29, 2012 Please explain me how often do vehicles spawn ? Helis, cars, buses ?I heard its 7 days AFTER the vehicle destroyed right ? So if you park away ALL the vehicles new ones will NOT spawn ? How often does loot spawn ? How does it work exactly? Near players, far from players, how ?

nivi 4 Posted June 29, 2012 They spawn at server startup. They respawn after around 7 days if they havent been used (hidden/bugged). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herd 69 Posted June 29, 2012 Thanks ! Some servers restart every 8 hours. Does that mean the vehicles respawns also every 8 hours? Or only those that blowed up / hidden not used ?So if I park away vehicles I will get infinite amount of them or how ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zorisx 7 Posted July 1, 2012 Servers that restart retain the saved vehicles. If a vehicle hasn't been touched for 7 days then it will be destroyed and another random vehicle will spawn in the server. Theoretically you could have a ton of vehicles. Keep in mind that others are after this as well and thinking like this would get you killed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herd 69 Posted July 1, 2012 What about loot spawn? How does it spawn ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herd 69 Posted July 1, 2012 Theoretically you could have a ton of vehicles.Are you absolutely SURE that say I take a vehicle at Berezhno and park it somewhere else. Are you SURE new one will spawn there after server restart ? I thought only if I kill my vehicle or leave it alone for 7 days.And how do I know when the servers restart? It SO UNFAIR that the admin knows that and hoards all the new vehicles of map with their pathetic friends. Does all vehicles spawn broken ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex (DayZ) 0 Posted July 1, 2012 Yeah, it's so unfair that the person paying to run the server knows where the vehicles are, and you're right that they're all assholes who're just going to horde them with their friends that you don't even know but who must of course be pathetic.GG?

I know where ALL the vehicles are.I dont know WHEN the server restarts. Admins restart them prolly at night where noone is playing at their own will. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think about it, If a vehicle spawned at location X, someone takes the vehicle. server restarts and another vehicle spawns in exactly the same location, if that happened on every server for every vehicle spawn in Dayz there would be more vehicles than players.

So say I blow up my car or dont use it for 7 days, only then new car in Cherno will spawn? right ? And how fast will it spawn ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BwickFS39 9 Posted July 1, 2012 It depends. If you parked your car in cherno and that car wasn't originally from cherno then a car from cherno could spawn anytime. But if you have that car running and saved then only when that car gets destroyed or left alone for seven days then dose a new vehicle spawns I don't have an exact time frame. Now as for you saying us server admins are hording vehicles and everything with our friends. You sir a pathetic waste of time who that the fact that i wasted my time to help should tell you something about server admins now shouldn't? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As for hoarding, well there are many clans that have 10+ vehicles and the fact that new dont spawn 99% of players are left without cars, while clans have tens of them.....

Even if you find just a bike, and you WANT A CAR bad enough, you can take that bike, and just scout the edges of the map. You will find some sort of automobile. My friends have found 3 cars on the edge of the map in about 4 days. Given we have already blown 2 of them up, we still manage to find them, and new cars spawn. They are out there. (I mention a bike because they spawn often, as do ATVs due to them being so fragile and not the best for big clans, as they only hold 1-2 people. You can find one of them with relative ease just by checking a map with spawn points of vehicles and searching for them. http://dayzhq.com/map/)Admins don't do as you describe. Car spawns are slightly-unique to servers (They still have the same 'global' spawns, just I hear some servers dont spawn vehicles in all of those locations). The admin would have to personally memorize where every vehicle spawns, and go to all of those on foot or with another car (would need friends aswell then, so one could get out and drive the other car) to see if any spawned and grab them. It just doesn't happen. IF it does, I'd say just switch servers, simple as that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
