slez@comcast.net 6 Posted July 27, 2012 As it stands now, anyone with access to the server can see what the server is transmitting to the hive. Player coordinates, items in their inventory, vehicle save locations, and I believe even tents.With some programming know-how you could code up a map that shows players locations as they are transmitted to the hive. Allowing admins to basically hunt down anyone on their server, find any saved camps, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrumilation 16 Posted July 27, 2012 Are you sure it's not encrypted? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slez@comcast.net 6 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) Yes i'm sure. I've seen a log of the server to hive communication..He told me item for item what I had in my inventory.He's told me my location a few times(just to let me know that he can, in a sadistic way)I'd at least like this acknowledged as an issue. I hate even bringing it up because of the massive amount of potential abuse it opens up. Edited July 27, 2012 by Strife Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slez@comcast.net 6 Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) bump, since people now actually realize admins can track you. Edited August 5, 2012 by Strife Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JDogg1329 7 Posted August 5, 2012 All of that information is stored in the server logs isn't it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slez@comcast.net 6 Posted August 5, 2012 That is correct. Tents, Vehicles, and your location are put into the logs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Food 309 Posted August 5, 2012 Oh you mean this?It's pretty useless for finding people and half the vehicles/tents don't appear + When you already have 17 vehicles I just leave the old bikes and ATV's for everyone else.And it's just the server saving the data, it can also be read by reading the process memory and and creating a program to map them for you which can be done by anyone :\The arma Engine isn't meant for people that play DayZ and that's probably this games largest flaw. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
