okano666@hotmail.co.uk 81 Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) So ive ran a DayZ server for a few months now, The server performance seems to be getting worse, there is Hobo cities everywhere - no tents seem to ever dissapear.Its been atleast 6weeks since i have seen a vehicle - Not that im complaining i rarely use them or see the point, id rather stay where the action is down south than setting up some hobo tent city thats full of gear somewhere - kind of ruins the fun of the game. Atleast for me.But after several sweeps of the server by me and my team mates its aparent that there are atleast 6 hobo city camps where there is just tent after tent after tent sometimes about 30tents at the same spot. Full to the brim of gear and after destroying it all - it just comes back on the next server restart.Is there anyway to clean it up - reset the mission file without canceling the server and starting again.

Never 237 Posted August 7, 2012 There should be a reset yes.But the mods always been run in a haphazard way, and now the standalones been officially announced i guess you can expect even less support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kaharon 1 Posted August 8, 2012 I would like to know about this server cleanse, too. It is very odd, many of the dayz forum team just often write things but don't explain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hunter2123 106 Posted August 12, 2012 I would like to know about this server cleanse, too. It is very odd, many of the dayz forum team just often write things but don't explain. He's just a forum mod and has nothing to do with DayZ itself other then moderate the forums. >:( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Venzire 76 Posted August 12, 2012 I like the idea of a global reset for vehicles and tents every few weeks or so. But many others will disagree with the idea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Venzire 76 Posted August 12, 2012 How do you do a complete reset?Reset DB files on HIVE, I guess they find it via the instance ID. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cydrake583 0 Posted August 12, 2012 From our side there is currently no way short of changing the ID cuz all server content related data is hive-sided. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
