Weird Server Log Glitch ... WTF?

Recommended Posts

So here's one for you experts ... wtf is this mess?

From my logs:

21.09.2012 02:19:53: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "Bandit1_DZ" 5:4 [0,0,0]

21.09.2012 02:19:53: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "DZ_Backpack_EP1" 5:6 [0,0,0]

21.09.2012 02:26:00: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "MedBox0" 5:177 [6406,2762,6]

21.09.2012 02:26:00: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "MedBox0" 5:178 [6399,2768,6]

21.09.2012 02:26:01: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "MedBox0" 5:182 [6417,2753,6]

21.09.2012 02:26:01: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "MedBox0" 5:183 [6420,2750,6]

21.09.2012 02:26:01: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "MedBox0" 5:184 [6424,2746,6]

21.09.2012 02:26:14: Gravel (***.***.***.***) GUID REDACTED ****************** - #0 "DZ_CivilBackpack_EP1" 5:198 [6410,2717,12]

Hint: That's my character, the IP and GUID match, and I was in game on this server at this time. However, I never interacted with a Civilian Backpack. I was close to the Cherno Hospital, which I believe is the coordinates given here, but I never went into the Hospital, and I certainly didn't interact with any Medboxes. In fact I didn't interact with anything medical. No bandages, no pain killers, no epi-pens, no morphine. And haven't interacted with anything medical in at least a week.

Also, there wasn't some weird hacker thing going on. It was just myself and one other player on my server at the time, and he is a known entity, not a hacker.

So can anyone explain this, because to my mind this brings the veracity of log files into question. How can I ban players and use log files as proof when I see that the log files are not even close to being correct?

You, the client, spawn medboxes when you're near a hospital. Same for backpacks. Backpacks are not items, they are "vehicles" - they are created via createVehicle. Perfectly normal loot spawn and player initialization what you're seeing there...
