If you want a coyote backpack...

[Inception. 9443]

Just found one in a deerstand. I would take it...but I've already got one myself. So I'd thought I'd be nice.

The co ords of it are 082, 056, on the eastern border of that grid square. It's in a deerstand, obviously.

No I'm not going to be camping it if you think so, I couldn't give a shit about what any of you do. I'm posting this and moving on, you have my word, but it's your decision.

For more detail it's north of Altar and north west of Gorka.

I would post a screenshot but I've exceeded my screenshot posting limit. Someone tell me how to delete my other screenshots quickly, please.

EDIT: Oh the server is US 2303.

IT'S A TRAP!

Jk.. I've traded with him multiple times, if he says it's legit, it's legit.

You move away -> loot despawns = thread is useless?^^

Loot doesn't change when someone goes there.

If it DID, then loot farming wouldn't require taking the loot outside of the loot spot. But it doesn't.

You could at least fill it up with empty tin cans so they at least had to spend a few minutes mucking around :D

Oh lol, that would have been great. Only problem is I had no tin cans :(

When your character is near a building, your game (I shall refer to as client) checks the building to see when loot was last spawned. If it was spawned, and is old, it will delete that equipment (cleanup) and then let the building sit empty for a while.

Hmm. That's weird. I don't if it's just me, but it stays the same for me. I mean, even the coyote backpack is still there, and yet I ran 2ks away from it.

[magicool 115]

mmhhmm maybe because you're the same "client"

idk

edit: servers which haven't had a restart for more than 6hrs have big trouble spawning/despawning loot

Maybe, but I've had friends report that the loot is still the same :S

[magicool 115]

the distance is irrelevant for this it depends how long u've been away I think

but he didn't define "old" in this post maybe old is 30min maybe 1h

Perhaps it makes a difference if you have interacted with items before dropping them? *shrugs*

I would love to...

...but I think it would be best to give it to someone else. I can scavenge for one myself, thank you very much!

Besides, I am a horrible navigator <_< .
