Jezza93 44 Posted December 16, 2015 So,first of all I just found a 'Tent Car' description is 'Car Tent...' and it has 168 slots. So does parking a car in this make that persistent? Are cars persistent anyway? Is persistence regarding tents generally reliable now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bororm 1156 Posted December 16, 2015 Vehicles are persistent regardless. That tent is to store your vehicle, but considering the size of it and how obvious it is, I personally am not sure there's too much point. Perhaps when proper base building is a thing or if they add some sort of camo abilities it will become more useful. As far as I know, tents are reliably persistent. Everything that is meant to be persistent seems to be in my experience. Some one said the time is now reduced to 7 days from 45, and that you can refresh things through the menu. I haven't verified if that's the actual case myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ColdAtrophy 1850 Posted December 17, 2015 I would not advise parking a car inside a car tent at the moment. Upon server restart, the front of all vehicles align to the North. I'm sure that you can see how having a car parked in one that was not placed perfectly to accommodate that would be a big problem for the continued use of said car and even possibly the ability to continue to access the items contained within the tent itself.

The tent itself however, is awesome! I use them all the time. From a distance ~ 100 meters they are invisible and pop up just when you are close enough. And due to the color, it's more likely to get missed than a civilian tent. Works great in a group of pine trees. Another awesome thing is that you can actually place a civilian tent inside it, adding extra inventory and hiding that tent, too. I have some barrels in mine aswell - there is plenty of space in that tent! Wouldn't advise putting cars into anything at the moment. You never know where they end up, it's a tragedy ;)You can also find military tents in the apartment houses now, so if you don't want the car tent, pick up one of those. I'm not sure they fit into any inventory, except the car's inventory at the moment, though. So you have to pitch it, if you can't store it and don't want it to despawn. Tents are cool! I love making bases. About persistency. Yes, they should be! However, there is an unresolved problem with some server hosts, which seemingly aren't persistent. Best way to check, is to pitch the tent, wait for a restart and if it's still there, you're good to start camping! Edited December 17, 2015 by S3V3N Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jezza93 44 Posted December 17, 2015 Thanks for the answers guys, I stashed a load of stuff in the tent,not including a car ;), last night so hopefully it's all still there :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Wilshire 0 Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Uhm, where do you usually find tents? Guess I will have to start looking :) Edited January 2, 2016 by calixus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
