Need help to understand car item logic

[suito 17]

Hi Sir's,

i have a problem to understood the car logic of DayZ.

At first, i have a UAZ, Wikipage told me following things about it:

• 50 Item Slots
  
• 10 Weapon Slots
  
• 7 Backpack Slots
  

So okay, now i understood that i can put in 50items, 10weapons and 7 backpacks, but wow its looking wrong .. in my UAZ i had following items:

• 6 jerry cans (6x3 = 18)
  
• 5 meet ( 5x1 = 5)
  
• 2 wheels (2x6 = 12)
  
• 1 class (1x2 = 2)
  
• 2scrap metal (2x3 =6)
  

This make totaly 43 Slots of inventory, means i have 7 Slots Free right?

Now i puttet in 2 Weapons, mean i have following: 7free slots inventory, 8 weapon slots and 6 backpack slot (have a backpack in car)

But now .. all my jerry cans are faded .. did i something wrong or why there are deletet?

So can anybody explain this to me?

I thought weapons took up 10 single slots, I know if you have backpack and try n put a primary weapon in there it deletes stuff to make room?

could be wrong though...

HALP!

50 Items means 50 ITEMS, their slots are not calculated. meaning u can have 50 weels in there ( eventough they take up 6 inventroy slots)

10 weapons is a harder one, Its is weapon and tool slots. ex: 10 AK-74's can be stored, or, any combination of this: weapon + binocs + gps + nightvision+ rangefinders+ matches + hatchet etc ... everything going into your toolbar + binocs, rangefinder and NV's count as weapon slots.

Backpacks means u can store those (even with items in it!) when server restarts, u will loose EVERYHTHING stored INSIDE the backpack tough. u will not loose the backpack.

VERY important: do not forget to SAVE your vehicle with the desired items. If u do not save the vehicle, items may dissapear.

Also there are some bugs still with tents/vehicles not saving corretly or not at all. but as far as i know, vehicles have been saver to store then tents atm.

Hope this helps u a bit
