Fire Barrel Changes?

[WOLVERlNES 135]

I had extra barrels I wished to bury, so I made them fire barrels, lit 🔥 them then tried to bury them with a shovel… but I couldn’t?! This used to be a method.

Can we no longer bury fire barrels to remove them from server?

I wound up shooting them so they’re ruined and despawn after next server restart.

Can't you burn your barrels in a firebarrel anymore?

No, lol 😂 they’re the same size… that’s like putting a sea chest inside a sea chest.

A friend told me about that a while ago and I didn`t want to believe it either.

You need a campfire first in the firebarrel you want to burn the other one with.

I think, the 150 space of the firebarrel counts as space of the fireplace then and that`s why it works maybe?

 I will fake-check that.

And i asked that question in Kiaras` new mythbuster-thread. ;-)

ok, i tested it and it works.

You don`t need a fire in the barrel. just put your barrel into the other one.

now the real reason why this is possible is very obvious for me:

You can move a barrel only when it is empty and closed. because of that fact it is impossible to stake barrels infinitely into each other.

Back in the day, once a FireBarrel was used at least once, one could simply bury it with a shovel to discard it. I wasn’t;t able to do this recently, was it removed all together?

Hey Wolferines,

i`m a little bit surprised,

you haven`t noticed my answer/video ?

No comment about it?

It clearly shows that you where wrong about the option to burn barrels with a firebarrel. ;-)

anyways:

Yes, it was possible. But it wasn`t a feature as far as i know and I thought it was out of the game for years until you asked about.

but I can also remember that, back in 2020/21, it was possible to immobilize the firebarrel by using it once, too. (maybe because of the ash? would explain why you were able to burry them?!)

DayZ normally doesn’t let a container be put into another container of the same kind/size outside of clothing, backpacks or tents.

For example, survivors can’t place a cooking pot into another cooking pot, a wooden crate into another wooden crate, or a sea chest into another sea chest because physically it’s impossible.

If a barrel can fit in another barrel I doubt it was intentional.

We used to get rid of barrels all the time by making fire barrels then buried them. Guess, that was removed — I was trying to avoid waisting ammo. At the end of the day, when I posted this, I just shot them to ruined state and they despawned on server restart.

Thanks for the video showcasing a barrel can be burnt in another barrel.

Yes, normally that`s absolutely right. I was sceptical about the barrels too in the first place when my buddy told me about.

The video is only few weeks old now, so it`s definitely in the game at the moment.(if they haven`t changed it with the last patch)

However, I absolutely share your opinion that it shouldn`t be possible at all. 

 

I stand to my previous explanation:

You can pick up and carry ONLY EMPTY AND CLOSED BARRELS!

Means: you can`t stash them infinitely into each other and that`s why it works  ;-)

(additionally you can`t open the barrel anymore after you placed it into the other one!)

 

Actually, i`m asking myself: is this possible with barrels attached to a Truck, too???

as far as i know you can store something into attached firebarrels since a while now.

but i Need to check this!!!

cheers

 

PS: i`ve found another exeption from your rule above:

--> you can put a full cooking pot(size12/storage12) with an attached oven(size12) into a yellow box(size12/store12)!

xD

That’s not an exception, for they’re different containers with the same carrying capacity. The rule is the same container can’t be Russian-dolled into another container of the same type. Example, a protective case inside another protective case.

We know barrels can only be carried while empty, that’s no secret.

You seem intent on full barrel-in-barrel testing. The point of placing barrels into truck is to expand trucks’ s carrying capacity and be able to transport the barrel(s) as well for base building. But I’ve never attempted to place a fire barrel in a truck barrel storage slot.

ok, but it`s obviously strange too, that it is possible to place a yellow case into a cooking pot or vice versa, in my opinion.

Of course. i just tried to give you an explanation WHY it is possible maybe. 

And since Kyiara doesn`t answer our question about (the barrels) in the "myth" thread we simply don`t know why it is like it is.

i´ll let you know about it. 

btw. have you figuered out since which update it isn`t possible to burry the firebarrels anymore?

maybe reading the patchnotes can give you an answer?

cheers
