How well has persistent items worked for you in .47?

[CJFlint 357]

So yesterday I decided to to how well storing items in an a secret area on a the map on a sever in my fav list. So far I found out you can fill back packs and leave the on the ground, then go on a different server, then come back and every thing is still there. At 1st the back pack appeared empty and once I put it on all the items were still in it.

 

How reliable is this? Does the server ever wipe what you place on the ground? Or is it only that your at the mercy of other players finding? What is your exp with it?   What kind of bugs are there if any?

 

The reason I ask these questions is because I don't want to waste to much time collecting items just for them to be wiped.

Uh, I thought this wasn't working yet? As in, as soon as the server restarts, the items will be gone. I thought the hotfix that'll probably show up next week would enable it. By no means sure, though.

What I have noticed is that when the server restarts, the same boring loot you skipped before the restart will still be around.

I'm under the impression only items stored in tents or on your body are persistent. Anything else left lying around (such as bags with items in) will be wiped after a set period of time to spawn in the world again.

Not well at all since no persistence is available on stable ;)

Weird yesterday I left items laying on the ground and returned to the server a few hours later and they were still there. Maybe the server never restarted.
