When do vehicles despawn?

Recommended Posts

Hey, I've been having vehicles in my groups camp for a while now. (inb4 OP is a vehicle hoarding faggot). There's something that keeps coming back to me though which I really wonder about:

I know that vehicles despawn after a minimum of 7 days if not used, but do they also despawn if you still save them meanwhile, just not move them?

Do I have to put stuff in to get it to stay, or does saving alone work?

Let me know, thanks.

I would think that by saving the vehicle, it is being interacted with and so communicates with the server so it shouldn't despawn after 7 days. But to be sure i'd get in to the vehicle and turn the engine on and off every few days just to make sure, as saving isn't 100% reliable.

>=24 hours without use outside of the map, both saved and unsaved or most likely on the next server restart after they are destroyed.
