RedWolf Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 Hi Chaps Lately some players on our server have been losing their gear after a server restart and it has happened to me once. I’ve checked though the server logs and can’t see any errors talking to the database. We are running on the latest version of Dayz Epoch. Anybody else having this problem… Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achmed Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I have had it reported to me but never seen in. Also have vehicles go missing and show up again later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimpNoodle Posted September 25, 2013 Report Share Posted September 25, 2013 I have reports of this happening also. Main guns going missing. SD guns changing into G17's and I've even had a Safe that was checked 10 minutes before a restart be empty after the restart. There are definitely some weird things going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGT Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 Problem is, when players see you gifting players for lost gear they get ideas and cry about lost gear also, when the reality is it's BS. Caught a few player stashing their gear after crying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fully agree with this and we will not replace gear, but it still seems to be a current Epoch issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caught a few player stashing their gear after crying that. You sir are right. But we have those issues lately too. Its not happening everyday, or after every restart but its present. We had to rewrite our serverrestart warning messages for players to tell them to log out in time. I think its only happening when they log out way to late (lets say about 10 seconds before the actual arma2oaserver.exe process gets killed by BEC). Is there a solution for this? Maybe make BEC kick all players 20 seconds before the process gets killed so the database can catch up with the saving of the characters? I dont know. Some players tend to play even when they know the server is going to restart any second and its frustrating. Some of them are in "combat", others are to lazy to log out.

Achmed Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 You could get bec to restart the mission just before the server restarts as then every one would be kicked to the lobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crack w Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 Players are not only loosing gear but cinder walls and garage doors are also disappearing.

BTFgator Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 i have witnessed this missing gear after restart problem multiple times. i have been able to tie it directly to being in game on the server at the restart. Simply let each client know that they are putting their own gear at risk by being in game at the time of restart. The responsibility is theirs. i have not found a single instance where someone suffered from this under any other circumstance then being in game at the restart.

LimpNoodle Posted October 10, 2013 Report Share Posted October 10, 2013 In the past week I have had 3 groups running to me crying about things in their safes disappearing. It is one thing when you loose an item, but everything in a safe just gone? wtf is happening there? Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
