Items disappering

[tom9521 4]

Hi could someone help me out with the loot system at the moment. I thought that if you stored items on a persistent server then they would stay there until reset of a Wednesday. My friend stashed a gun for me for later on but the place he stashed it ha snow disappeared. Can someone help please.

 

thanks

The only items that are persistent are tents (civilian, army and car tent), barrels, protector cases and ammo boxes (they will last for 45 days).

 

Backpacks will last 4 hours (except improvised which last 1 hour only).

 

Trucks are persistent as well, unless they get destroyed, then they will re-spawn at a random location

 

All other items will de-spawn after 30 minutes.

Also if you may know i was playing with my friend again next thing we where both sick with itchy wounds, yet I had took no damage at all, you know what else this could be?

The only time this happened to people is when they (accidentially) used the sewing kit to stitch up a wound. Me and some others have had problems with the health economy of the game, as we would receive messages about being cold and then hypothermia within minutes before death. It didn't happen all the time and I actually cured food poisoning, so I guess the remedies work, just some things about health seem a bit messy at the moment. If you get sick the best thing to do is probably stash your stuff inside a barrel or even a backpack and get killed, so you can restart fresh. You shouldn't have too many problems with getting ill or any of the other stuff. Just make sure you don't get wet (Raincoats or Gorka Jacket) and that you don't stitch any wounds. Bandages and splints work well, so there should not be any problems.

Yeah i looked up on it and it said that about the sewing kits but i never did that either. What was funny is that i was testing different items and it seemed to pop up as soon as i drank out of a canteen. Very weird.

They are very difficult almost impossible to completely destroy right now, most cases they persist but are righted if flipped, fully repaired and refueled at a reset and strangely pointing north east. Noting their direction can be a good indicator that their fuel tank is full and someone didn't just get out and may be in the area.  

 

If you do manage to destroy one which I've only managed by getting one stuck in terrain under water and it still took 2-3 resets for it to despawn they respawn where they were originally spawned.

 

There's currently only 15 fixed spawns where they start at when the servers are wiped although unless your on a server that's had it's persistence wiped they're all gonna be moved from their spawned location and hidden or abandoned.

True. I had this strange accident, the truck I was driving started to fly, to maybe 200 meters high. We came down on a hillside, truck flipped but we were okay, and after server restart I picked the truck from the location. I was carrying a tire repair kit and a jerry can, but it was, as you say, fully repaired and refueled, strangely pointing north east.
