Tent's when will they be fixed ?

[Taiphoz 95]

I was thinking and wondering about tents tonight as a hacker is currently satchel charging our clans camp, and probably destroying our vehicles, (thanks for that)..

First of all, when will tents get fixed so that any action taken on them pushes a save, preventing tent dupeing, I admit that when the server resets and my stuff pops back I dont complain but I look forward to the day that tents work the way their supposed to, it will reduce the number of people constantly running around with AS50's and CCO's.

Also I was wondering and offering a suggestion that each player, should be able to find and use 1 unique tent that has a padlock and can only be accessed by that given player, a tent they can pack up and move, when needed and one that cant be opened by others.

I also think this one tent should only be able to hold 3 guns, 5 tools and say 20 items, so less than a normal tent a sacrifice for it being a locked tent.

People, clans will still need to use a load of normal tents to store lots of tools and guns and ammo, but if the worst happens, and their camp is raided, they will at least have a very small amount of stuff to fall back on if they have stuff in their tent that is.

anyway.. just asking :)

I am against the idea of locked tents. It is grossly unrealistic. Even if you don't have the means to open the lock itself, just tear through the tent.

But what about metal containers, possibly buryable?

I hope tents get fixed as well. I destroyed one and it keeps reappearing, giving away it's location :(

I agree with the duping issue although I'm not sure it can actually be fixed in the mod. You might have to wait until the standalone which won't be long! I don't like the idea of magical lockable tents though. That's the risk you run setting up a camp. I've never understood why groups stash everything including vehicles in one place, your just making it too easy for people to find. Your also giving them the means to empty your tents and drive off into the sunset loaded with all of your gear. I never put more than one tent in a camp and I stash vehicles away from the tents. At least the thieving bastards will have to work for my stuff. I also like to put a bear trap or two near my vehicles if I have them.

Duping? Id like the shit I put in there and save to actually fucking be there after the server restarts. THEN they can worry about duping, Ive lost 2 DMR's.....

Err, it is fixed. For me anyway. Is the server your playing on up to date? If not you'll keep having the same issue, there's a server-side hotfix that the admins need to applly.
