  1. I would say its the epoch anti hack bug. I have had a few people get banned for:

     

    1. Running and opening their inventory.

    2. Going fast in a car while lagging.

    3. Something to do with chat and running. 

    4. A bad spawn position and stuck in the ground.... he re-logged. banned instantly. 

     

    Only bans I trust are the ones i personally hand out. Which are zero at the moment. 

    I agree especially at this stage of the game.  

  2. He definitely never tried to run a server but he did recently install and play on an overpoch server. I can easily lift the ban on him by removing the entry that is banning his uuid BUT if the system is doing it's job and he got banned for a legit reason is what I am trying to determine. 

    He was in game not in my view and did something and go the ban was not like it happened when he tried to log in the first time he was in game got kicked and than not let back in.

  3. Meh I just don't see the point of having a billion and one servers with vanilla settings and 3 people on them. That's not really how epoch was meant to be played. It's a multi player survival game. Pvp is a huge focus and one of my favorite aspects of it. So a player less server seems like no incentive at all for forking out cash. If I want to build alone id go play mine craft. But meh you are right, it's their money.

    ...........

     

    Why do you care what others do or that there are empty servers ? Why not just worry about your own shit ? If someone wants to run a server 24/7 that is empty it is their money and time maybe they are working on shit privately or maybe like mentioned they only want to play with a few rl friends. Personally I do not give a rats ass what others do or if there are 10 million empty servers.

  4. So you want some magical Church as in Highlander where you guys can't fight even though you would if you could? ... trust issues!

     

    There is the idea right there what if churches were kill free buildings like your guns just do not work in the church.

     

    ps: remembers that scene in highlander in the church HEY SISTER I GOT SOMETHING TO SAY.....

    ......IT's BETTER TO BURN OUT THAN FADE AWAY.... lmao

  5. Over time the weak hands will fold. As hard as it is to find a good server it is even harder to find good players. Here is what I see people log in , in some cases don't even wait more than 10 seconds for the mod to load and leave. Or the guy that tries to connect and can't and starts sending PM's to you that he can not connect and it is all your fault only to find out they don't even have epoch mod installed and or enabled. Or the players who think its server owners and admins jobs to "spawn them in items" every time they need something. I had a guy come in my TS yelling "hey someone destroyed my base" demanding some kind of justice. I said "it's epoch" dude has a little tantrum and rage quits. I laugh and go back to gathering....  What will make servers successful is reliability, consistency, and unique stand out features such as custom assets etc. This is only Alpha imagine when this shit hits V1.0 ! 

  6. I have this player he has been on my server for about a week. BE kicked him through him theadmin ban code #0. HE tried to connect several times BE kept shit canning him, Only happens to this guy. I took a look in bans.txt, and sure enough there is a line with his 

    GUID now added. My question : Is this BE just doing its job ? The guy claims he has no bans etc. only happens to him. 

  7. I have the advanced flight model turned off on my server, I find if not flying with a JS it can be a chore, I recently found one of these little birds, interesting to say the least . Reminded me of the guy in mad max 2 flying the gyro. luv it. One of my flights it seemed to come apart in mid air and i fell to my death but the rotor secion was still up there spinning in a circle for a bit .

  8. In the last few days I have helped a few people with this issue and have noticed the last 2 guys that I 
    helped even though they did in fact have everything set up popper they had the start up sequence
    wrong, so here is a quick check list :
     
    follow all instructions in the setup guide.
    and in this forum 
     
    make sure all paths are correct
     
    Make sure files are unblocked.
     
    Even if you have everything proper and do not start your server in the correct sequence when you pull 
    up the admin menu and try to execute an admin command you will get the public variable kick (as in you
    the admin!) 
     
    start sequence:
    1. Start BEC
    2. Start REDIS
    3. Start armaserver
  9. 3 days is better than 3 hours.

     

    But if you lock your vehicle.. does it stay locked and nobody but you can unlock it or is this lock feature not working as intended?

    In my experience sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Also there are the mentioned variables , server restart and what the lock time is set at. I have my server vehicle lock time set to 86,400 seconds (24h) But if I do a restart on the server it seems to reset the lock.

  10. The fix I have found is just to relog and it should be fine once you are back ingame.   Happened a few times to me and my group.  Relogging fixed it.

    ^^^ what he said, I find logging in and out fixes a lot of the alpha bugs in epoch, also works when I can not get the dialog by pressing 'I' for cars or when you dont get the dialog to light the fire. I just log in and out....BAm

  11. My public variable file is overwritten every restart. And I have no problems. If your using the same file with no changes every time then its not generating/changing the variables in game. So check you unblocked the DLL etc.

     

    Let me be more specific, Yes mine is also overwritten every time BUT not every time does it create a backup of the original and change the extension to .txt.original (or something like that) when that latter happens the error occurs.

  12. After experiencing this issue on and off It seems to be a random occurrence after a restart here is what I have learned If you do a server restart and it renames the original publicvariable.txt and than makes a new one when you do something from the admin menu you will get the error , so if after a restart I notice this happens. I just delete the newly created publicvariable.txt file and change back to the original file and restart again it seems to work every time. So to recap if on a restart you notice the original file was renamed and a new one created you will get the error.

  13. OK so you either just set your Epoch server up for the first time or you just made some changes and you are on your server but can anyone else connect ?

     

    I think a lot of us have been there. The best way to test this shit is to have someone from outside your net actually try and connect. If you find yourself in this situation either post it here or friend me, PM me, whatever.

     

    If I am available I will try and connect. Also anyone else interested in providing this kind of help can chime in  here on this thread, would be a really helpful and in the process you can meet some cool people.

     

    Now with all that being said connection testing should work like this  :

     

    1.You request someone to try and connect to your server here or however

     

    2. provide server IP and port

     

    3. The tester tries to connect and gives a report such as I got booted with this error

     

    or 

     

    I connected , I am getting this for FPS or any other useful info.

     

    As far as this thread goes lets just keep it to connection testing only.
