n3uro 7 Posted May 1, 2012 "Management of tent/vehicle inventory sync by server rewritten"could you elaborate on this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocket 16567 Posted May 1, 2012 Previously tent, vehicles, and characters simply flagged themselves for update, and the server "got around" to updating them. Characters then changed to also force a save on exit.I ripped out the entire "flagging" system and now saves are forced (as this was working very well), but they aren't done as often (every 30 seconds). There is a cooldown to vehicles to stop them forcing a save more than once every ten seconds.To force a save of your vehicle, get in, and then get out. Getting out of a vehicle forces a save of its position. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

midhaven 0 Posted May 1, 2012 Does this mean tents (and it's contents) and vehicles are bound to the character and can be brought to other servers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redrick (DayZ) 72 Posted May 1, 2012 [NEW] Sync of player now entirely player driven to reduce server load and hangups* [NEW] Server database sync of characters heavily optimized to reduce loadCould this have fixed the DC problem??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rocket 16567 Posted May 1, 2012 No, i tested that. I also tested one of my theories (the large group). Unfortunately, the problem has persisted.It now appears quite likely that its either something else within the mod (looking less likely now), the use of selectPlayer (seems most likely), or something else internally in ArmA2 (unlikely) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
x7steelers7x 1 Posted May 1, 2012 Im my opinion, not having direct chat working is the biggest problem yet. This sucks having to talk to people in side chat... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Text chat sucks anyway..That still only works half of the time, I've been talking to my friends on mumble and then trying to say stuff in direct voice right next to them and they still can't hear it in-game, only through mumble.
