Undrun SIgna 4 Posted September 10, 2012 Ok, this came to me when me and a friend found a V3S out by Stary Sobor. We ended up driving it all the way back to Cherno with half a tank left of gas, and decided to go through Cherno for more stuff. We hid the V3S outside of Cherno in some forest to the north of it. After we where done scavenging, we came back to the vehicle and logged out. We came back the next day to find the server had a reset, and the vehicle was remove/put back to its normal drop/spawn location in the process. This kinda ticked us of, but said what ever and headed to the Air strip. along the way, the idea of being able to find a tarp or some sort of covering that you could throw over vehicles, that saves there location and items, even in a server restart, but does not protect the vehicle from other players, allowing them to remove the tarp and have access to the vehicle. This would have to be a rare drop, so that we don't just have all the vehicles taken and then never re-spawn. And I think it would also extend the 7 day inactivity to 14 or 28, to give a player more time if needed. This is an idea that I think maybe be added, but may need to be broken up into 3 sizes; Small (Easier to find only covers ATV, Old Bike, Motorcycle, and Tractors) Medium (Harder to find then Small, covers Jeeps, and other 2 to 4 seat vehicles as well as all the vehicles small covers) and Large (Hardest of them to find, covers all Vehicles in the game) Post what you think of this below. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Undrun SIgna 4 Posted September 10, 2012 (edited) Yes they have a save function, but only saves the gear inside, not the vehicle itself ( xD posted as above post was... ) Edited September 10, 2012 by Undrun SIgna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

silkyskills 59 Posted September 10, 2012 I can't find vehicles as it is, but i will say yes as long as more vehicles are spawned in game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
