fuzzy4ever 22 Posted July 29, 2012 All the vehicles on my home server reset to their spawn points whenever the server restarts, even if we've spammed "save" on the vehicle. Is there some way to prevent this from happening? It's frustrating spending an entire day building a fleet of 5-6 vehicles complete with backup parts, only to have them wiped.

Diederik 68 Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) It seems to me all the Vehicals always respawn on a restart. I don't think there is a easy way to avoid it really.Edit : Saving does in-fact help you on a restart. Edited July 29, 2012 by Diederik Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The entire point of the save function is to save the current location and conditions of the vehicle should a restart occur. I've also tested this myself and it works, although I've heard it can be buggy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Note: That's one ATV out of the 8 or so vehicles we tried it on.@Quismsheecose - I'm guessing that's spam. Wtf is with spam bots following me >_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mattolio (DayZ) 6 Posted July 29, 2012 Please tell me this is unintended behavior and that it will be fixed!I spent an entire day getting together an ATV, 2 UAV's and a motorbike only for them to vanish on server restart... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
giiwedin@live.com 32 Posted July 29, 2012 shit couple tips, always save your car\truck and never d/c inside of the car\truck will spawn when you come back underneath the wheels lol;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mattolio (DayZ) 6 Posted July 30, 2012 shit couple tips, always save your car\truck and never d/c inside of the car\truck will spawn when you come back underneath the wheels lol;)lol thanks for the tips. Seems pointless though - as soon as the admin restarts the server everything is gone anyway and I always spam vehicle saving to be sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fuzzy4ever 22 Posted July 30, 2012 From what I hear there was an update just rolled out that is supposed to fix it. Seems to have done it as I moved a vehicle and had the server restarted, the vehicle didn't move from that spot I saved it on. However now the server is EXTREMELY laggy. Keep desyncing and actually get timeout messages non stop. Hope it's something with the server and not the patch! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fuzzy4ever 22 Posted July 30, 2012 Update: server-side 7.2 has included the choppers, fixed the "reset" problems vehicles as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
