I was about to add some events for cleaning up old vehicles in my Database (1.2.0.5) when I noticed something really strange. It seems a lot of my vehicles automaticly get a new timestamp in the LastUpdated column every time the server comes up. This means removing these vehicles from database by using this value becomes quite problematic since I have no idea when they were last used.
I did some troubleshooting and it seems it only happens with vehicles that are not fully repaired. If I repair them it keeps the timestamp and does not change at server restart. If not repairing the vehicles updated the column, a workaround could be creating an event that repairs everything every day, but alas it does (Maybe there's a way around this in SQL?). There's also a couple of vehicles that are not fully repaired that this does not happen to. It occurs both on ordinary spawned and locked vehicles. My buildings are indestructible so I am unaware if they would have the problem as well if they were damaged.
I created a new server with a unchanged dayz_server.pbo and Mission folder and created a new empty database. The problem still occurs. Attached is an excerpt from HivExt.log when the problem is occuring on the new server (17:29:48).
Is this a known issue or am I doing something wrong?
