BigCountry Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 For example, after I pick one of the 3 teleporters at start, I am warped to one of 3 areas on the map with a lot of traders in this area. Is this area a safe zone? What is the radius? For example can I sneak back into these areas (and be protected) after I have geared up to sell/buy some stuff off the traders?

Richie Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 No safezones, you can go back to them anytime you want, they're traders so trade away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FPSTrollywood Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 The traders marked by black dots are in areas that do not allow gunfire, explosives, or melee attacks to damage you. That does not stop people from abusing other methods to hurt you. Yes you can go back into these zones and trade, the radius is very small so just stay inside of the hesco walls and assume that everything outside the hesco walls is not safe.

Are you sure about that? I thought there were no safezones in vanilla A3 Epoch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brunz Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Hi, When looking at the code and adding in custom spawns i have found that the safe zones are created at any location which is either the origin or destination of a spawn portal ( the manhole covers ) Other posters are right they have very limited range without looking i would approx 15-20m happydayz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axle Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 Traders work like this. Map Marker Colors. Black = Protected trader. Brown = trader that has lived at least one restart. "Not Safe" Green = Trader that was killed and respawned. Red= Dead trader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeGerman Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I'm just wondering - Are there any consequences if you kill a trader? Like this trader stops trading to you forever? Also loot: If you kill a trader - do you get acces to all items in his shop-inventory? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also loot: If you kill a trader - do you get acces to all items in his shop-inventory? A new trader will spawn somewhere else after the next restart and will have nothing until people sell him something. And no... you cant access all items in his shop inventory. Only his normal inventory that will probably have only clothes, compass, map and watch. Not really worth it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donnovan Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 The protected areas have player or vehicle gear protection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 The protected areas have player or vehicle gear protection? The only protection they offer is that you cannot be damaged by bullets/hatchets/chainsaws. You can still be ran over by cars or smushed by helicopters and you still need to lock your vehicles so people can't steal them/look into the gear.
