Cars are useless 😕 This is never going to be fixed, not completely anyway. A complete redesign of persistence would be necessary to fix this 100% of the time which is definitely not happening at this stage of the game. Any server crash may wipe some or all of the persistence files, of which cars that have been touched by a player are a part of. The attitude towards cars needs to be the same as the attitude towards gear -- as the saying goes in DayZ, "don't get attached to your gear, it'll soon be gone." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And if your car doesnt respawn after a server crash, the God of DayZ expects a sacrifice from you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The current design has persistence written to actual files stored on the server. It is a bad design, because if the server exe was in the middle of writing to said files when it crashed, those files get corrupted and ignored the next time the server starts, causing some items not be loaded into the world. Using a database for persistence that can roll back for incomplete transactions would have been the better way to go. A redesign like that would essentially be a "DayZ 2.0" and I don't see server crashes suddenly being completed fixed, so things disappearing is simply always going to be a thing in DayZ.

Yes I ran a server too, so I'm familiar with how the storage works, but what I'm asking is, how do you know, that it would take DayZ 2.0? How do you know, how much work was needed to make it better? Are you a programmer yourself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would take a redesign to eliminate persistence items disappearing due to server crashes. This would be a significant change to the way the game currently operates affecting most aspects of it. Based on the Status Report we got today, we ain't gettin' any significant development anymore, so I don't see the way that persistence works changing anytime soon, do you? This means, as long as we have server crashes, we're gonna have disappearing items. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kod3Roguee 1 Posted July 17, 2019 So what exactly is happening to the servers? I have worked reallyyy hard to get my base safe and armed. Will all of my gear be gone when the update comes or no? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will all of my gear be gone when the update comes or no? I did the very same thing you did. Built a camp all night, repaired two cars. But this is a necessary step to eliminate crashes/duping exploits and most importantly, server hopping. And yes everything will be wiped out.
