How often do the servers restart?

Recommended Posts

Different for every server?

Also, If I had a car or vehicle, do I lose it if the servers restart?

THanks!

if you save the car no it should not be lost and restarts are random

Oh don't say that. I've lost a motorcycle, I don't know if I lost my ATV yet. Due to the server I play on hasn't rolled to 1.7.2.x yet.

But it's because it was moving, so if you suspect a restart. Don't drive!

It is dependent on what the server host decides.

From my experience, most restart every 6 hours or so.

On mine I do a restart at Midnight, 6AM, Noon, 6PM in-game time/ 2PM, 8PM, 2AM, 8AM my local time.

Depends on what the server owner has setup, most servers state their restart times. Its a fifty fifty chance that they either restart twice daily or 4 times daily.

You cant lose vehicles even if you dont save them, the only thing you save is the stuff you put into it. If its gone when you login then someone took it. Last patch made a lot of vehicles disappear for no reason though.

Sometimes it happens that after the server restart all vehicles/tents are not spawned. So if you can't see your vehicle where you left it, try to check again after the server restart. You can say for sure that it's the case if you can't see your tent as well.
