Dose vehicles stay locked forever?

How does this work with purchased vehicles?

 

 

Are they bound to your Player ID that only you can unlock it or is it just like any fresh spawn vehicle that it's locked and anyone can unlock it?

i believe this is not the case.  I just have my timer set for a 3 day lock on vehicles.  its my understanding that the car belongs to last person in possession.

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.

I have gone through the database, and no where can I find does the player connect to a vehicle currently. But its completely in the in memory of the server, ie the memory resident variables, so my guess that it will save vehicle to player/group in later revisions in the database so the time can be respected after server restarts.

I am VERY shocked to read all this. 30 minutes by default is a joke and a reset after every server restart renders a lock almost useless and I think it's kina game breaking. If the owner has not used it in a week then open the lock, maybe combine this with the jammer, that it has to be near the own jammer and be maintained or something but in its current state... Well bugger me, that's messed up.

When i started playing this i would just hide my vehicle to prevent it getting stolen while i was gone , i would keep my items(the ones that i could)  in the backpack when logging off, now i have a base so i leave the vehicles inside and sometimes they get stolen anyway. They will have to introduce keys or some other method of locking eventually this one just prevents from being stolen while logged in.

I saw this idea in another thread and REALLY liked it. In order to keep your vehicles locked, you must park them within the 300 meter range of your plot pole. I think this would balance out the current method of 30 minute locking!

Yes, funny enough I talked with a few guys on my server and on TS about it. The idea of having it locked within jammer range as long as it's maintained had received huge support. Much better than even keys.
