DrMurdoc 3 Posted August 1, 2012 So me and 2 friends repaired a car, and we saved it often, and suddenly it said session lost. We spawn in and it is not anywhere to be seen, will it be back where we last saved, because if it is not I will probably rage quit, no joke, 3 hours to get it together, and we lose it for a stupid reason.Is this normal, that every time a server restarts or crashes, normally 4 times a day, we will need to get a new vehicle. If so I think this is stupid, so what should happen after a restart to our vehicles? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eldo (DayZ) 7 Posted August 1, 2012 This is an Alpha, hardcore zombie survival, you can't expect to lose your cars to glitches, I cant tell you how many UAZs, Offroaders, ATVs, Bicycles, Motorbikes, and boats I've lost, life is tough, suck it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brudagon (DayZ) 64 Posted August 1, 2012 You should get it back when the server restarts again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evoxtom 142 Posted August 1, 2012 You're going to have to hit the spots you had possibly saved it last, or the route you driven prior to restart. Happened to us plenty of times. When a server goes down in the middle of driving or too close to a save, it's hit or miss where it will be... And what gear stayed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikhail 65 Posted August 1, 2012 maybe read the forum a little bit before you post. issues with cars is a known problem that has yet to be fixed. Its an alpha, there are bugs.and to answer your question.... it's probably gone if it wasn't there when the server restarted. It might have spawned someplace random which means someone else will probably grab it. If nobody does then it will eventually respawn at its original spawn point but that usually takes 7+ days.

jruhe240@gmail.com 42 Posted August 1, 2012 I feel your frustration, my server restarted as I was flying my helicopter but thankfully it was back at my camp at the location I saved it last. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bubba Jones 30 Posted August 1, 2012 Retrace your steps and check each spot where you got out of the car and/or saved it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Landen 2 Posted August 1, 2012 as others have said, check your last save points, sometimes you wuill save it, but only the equipment on it will save, and it will end up two or three locations back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No_you 0 Posted August 1, 2012 Either the last save point or it saved automatically while you were driving which is a HUGE pain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
