How to do a map reset?

[private_joker 24]

i.e. reset all vehicles, tents, everything specific to my server. A hacker absolutely ruined my map, so I just want a fresh start.

I don't think there is a way. I too have the same issue. Vehicles taking damage when server restarts because they are in the ocean or who knows where. There is no coordinates given for them. They have been effectively removed from the game by scripters. In order to "reset" the map you have to "reset" the saved files on the hive server. That means you need a new server ID. I suppose you could close down the server and sign up for a new one. Personally I think I will close mine down and wait for the standalone. The mod is just unplayable.

I figured it out. rjack is mostly right, it has to be done from the hive. Concordantly, you'll need to submit a ticket with the dev team, here:

I just told them that the "magnet" hack had been run, offered the server log file that proves it, gave them my Location ID and Instance ID, and asked for the locations to be reset. We'll see what they do.

They have never reset instance IDs. Your best bet is to just ask for a new one.
