If the hosting is anything like hosting vanilla arma games then no, they cannot see the location of players or vehicles, but they have access to mission files yes? They can see spawns and propably with little luck anyone can find players stash. I once decided to ride my bike to northeast :D I just looked at my compass and went on and on until I stumbled into a huge tent city at the edge of map filled with weapons and 2 cars, and there were no one guarding them at the moment so I might have taken a thing or two from the tents :P

No, we can't. That being said, hackers can (very easily!) and some admins are hackers, so... beware?! :X

We have no magical button that shows us where you are on the map.

It's not hard to find "camps" because people are very predictable in their locations. The map really isn't that big. You can immediately eliminate fields and you can immediately eliminate the forests that are just simply too close or too popular, like the hill near Story. That doesn't leave a whole lot, and even fewer of those have enough foilage or the proper type of tree model to hide anything.

But I digress.

Logs show player location. But its not like the coordiance on Day Z or your map. its an (X,Y) Coordinate.

from what i've seen the logs will show an x,y co-ordinate when the player logs in, but as mentioned, that x,y co-ordinate is totally different to a dayz map grid reference, pretty useless info for trying to locate players / vehicles.

you cross the information to be useful, easily, but I think a lot of work, there are simpler ways to "use exploid" and contrary to what many think most who like to "take advantage" are not smart, or hackers they just use a google = D produces a real hacker hack / bypass script and thousands of copiers cheaters bastards use it = (
