A simple suggestion regarding tents/ looting of them- more realistic/ less confusing

[TDB 7]

Hi, I've been playing Day Z for sometime now and I've been very confused during my time playing when it comes to tents, I'll save it properly in a very distant location where the odds of someone finding the tent are slim to none, I get on on the next morning and all the stuff is gone.

Now I agree that tent looting is a great and realistic , but sometimes tent losses are due to server side problems which can be quite frustrating, It's even more frustrating not knowing what was the cause of losing all your tents contents.

So my suggestion is this, say you were robbed in real life, surely there would be traces of a robber or a hint of some sort, my suggestion is that when robbed by a player, there be something left behind such as footprints, trash scattered or something a long those lines that pretty much tell you your tent got looted as opposed to not knowing whether or not it was due to a player or a server issue, thanks for reading, hope you support.

My apologies if something like this has been posted before, I haven't seen it.

I agree on this, my buddy and I have 3 tents and two atvs stocked very well. So far no issues but would like to know if someone took my stuff or if it was a glitch... Good idea for standalone game.

I wish they had an inventory guide to show you how full or how much space you have left to stash stuff. Keeping track now isn't what I would expect.

Just leave something useless in there (like an empty tin can) nobody is gonna pick that shit up when they are trying to fill a backpack to the max. If the can is gone it's a pretty good indicator that you got bugged out.

Decent Idea but waste of space :P

Yes i agree but hopefully, serverside issues like this will be solved in the future.
