Northling 39 Posted August 14, 2012 so to make a long story short me and my friends found our very first helicopter and when we parked it and looted a place everyone got "session lost" message and when we enter the game again the helicopter is gone and its not at the last save point. where could it be?

Lethal (DayZ) 2 Posted August 14, 2012 Probably a hacked heli. I heard they disappear after server restarts, I may be wrong though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icomrade 201 Posted August 14, 2012 Probably a hacked heli. I heard they disappear after server restarts, I may be wrong though.All spawned in vehicles (not in the DB) disappear after server restarts. This is because vehicles not in the database cannot be manually saved to the database by a player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
orbs 1 Posted August 14, 2012 it could be at the place where u found it.we also found a chopper, fixed it, flew around, saved it. after a serverrestart the chopper was gone. after checking all places we landed we finally found it where we found it first.this actually happens after every serverrestart... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Northling 39 Posted August 15, 2012 we found it broken on top of klen (the mountain next to khelm) is there a chopper spawn there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makes it useless to even bother fixing it now. (Version 1.7.2.5 no issues in .4) Edited August 17, 2012 by Kraegan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Version 1.7.2.5 no issues in .4)Same issue here.Looks like only a revert to 1.7.2.4 could work or.. wait for the hotfix./pray Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Version 1.7.2.5 no issues in .4)our chopper didnt respawn at an original spawnplace. it was always standing on a lane at three valleys. dont know if its still there, didnt visit this server for a few days...
