Cannot remove items on personal server

Recommended Posts

Hello guys,

i hope you are doing fine. 

I’ve tried to remove items on my server lowering the “nominal” value down to 0. 
I’ve hit restart server but nothing changed. 
 

what am I doing wrong?

Has this happened to you?

Items remain until they reach their lifetime value, so if you have reduced nominal to 0, that means when the current loot in the world for that item reaches its lifetime limit, it will not be respawned by the CE.  If you want this loot gone immediately, you'd have to delete your storage_1/data folder (or the entire storage_1 folder if you want saved player inventory deleted as well).

Keep in mind that this will delete other persistent items as well, such as bases, buried loot, parked cars, etc.

If I remember right you can actually clear "free" non-persistent loot lying around on the ground by deleting the "types.bin" flile in the storage folder (and all its backups). I have never had need to do this myself though, so I would not do that without taking a complete backup first...

is this because I’m on ps4 and not pc?
