trev186 389 Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) Not sure if anyone else has seen this but tonight I was the last person on my server... Any how I was chilling up where I park my trucks when a civ tent full of gear appeared right in front of me...It was not like I saw it out of the corner of my eye either....the thing magically was there 100 feet in front of me.Anyone else notice this ?I wish I had a video.For good measure I took the valuables and dumped the other stuff out and packed the tent Edited April 8, 2015 by trev186 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chokko 45 Posted April 8, 2015 well that would be funny if all these disappearing tents attributed to persistence problems, were indeed still on the server but popping up elsewhere :) should put a message on your server asking people to contact you if they lost a tent... confirm the contents match what you saw, then you two can pass on coords to the dev, of where the tent was placed, vs where it magically appeared. might help dev identify a cause.

boneboys 7988 Posted April 8, 2015 Tents do pop in a few seconds after the owner logs into the server, I've witnessed that with my own eyes.Not sure what happened to you if indeed alone on the server, life is full of mysteries... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Velenon 13 Posted April 8, 2015 Wait tents disappear from server when we log off? Is it the same for dropped backpacks? I thought they were always present, this would ease my worry about people finding my tent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted April 8, 2015 I didn't say that.Log out next to your tent 20/30 m away and when you log in observe.Keep in mind that persistence has yet to be totally reliable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeaverProductions 441 Posted April 8, 2015 (edited) I didn't say that.Log out next to your tent 20/30 m away and when you log in observe.Keep in mind that persistence has yet to be totally reliable.Have you tried doing that with a friend close by to replicate your findings and rule out texture/item loading when logging in? I dont think tents are tagged to an individual owner are they? Edited April 8, 2015 by Beav Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Velenon 13 Posted April 8, 2015 Ok cool thanks for clearing that up, I got a bit excited ;) Yeah I'm not 100% trusting persistence, I know it will get me eventually, for now I log out with all the good loot on me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boneboys 7988 Posted April 8, 2015 It's simply what I see popping in, the tent is there (if persistence working), so may well be "texture/item" loading as you (Beav) say, this does not answer the original post and I'm interested to know why this should happen, if in fact it did occur as reported. I see that I worded my above post very badly with the use of the term "owner", it would be wrong of me to change it now, so I'll let it stay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trev186 389 Posted April 8, 2015 yeah to clarify it i had been on the server well past the textures still loading issue. I used to get that when they would appear and disappear the first few seconds after i joined a server. This was like I had been on the server for awhile and a tent just popped up right in front of me as if to say "take this guys loot" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
albinoclock 45 Posted April 9, 2015 Was it while you were walking toward it? Tents don't render at a certain distance. Certainly close enough that you'd notice it suddenly appear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
