phm 12 Report post Posted October 18, 2015 First of all, I apologize in advance if there is Safe documentation somewhere and I missed it. Here's my experience with safes (the only addon running is A3EAI and a new database): Give myself a Safe using the admin menuFind it in inventory, select "Build" after highlighting itThe build menu comes up as expectedRotate and place the safeSafe rotates and places as expectedApproach the safe and put some items inLock the safeNow unlock the safe: doesn't workSafe can only be unlocked after a server restartAlso, the rotation that I did when I placed the safe seems to have reverted after the server restart (???)Is that the way it's supposed to work?

Brian Soanes 202 Report post Posted October 18, 2015 A small server side hotfix was released for this issue. Update your a3_epoch_server.pbo with the latest from https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/releasesNow we just need the server fix to stop them dropping through floors on restart. I looked through the server files and constructions are called long before containers which rules that out.Awol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phm 12 Report post Posted October 18, 2015 Even with the hotfix, locking/unlocking is still funky. Sometimes it refuses to lock, other times it still refuses to unlock. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KPABATOK 195 Report post Posted October 18, 2015 It just takes some time, just like with the lockbox, sometimes it takes me 30 seconds to lock or unlock lockbox. So it is the same with safes. Press one time "lock" and just move away for 10-20 seconds then come back. Same with unlocking. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vbawol 3683 Report post Posted October 18, 2015 (edited) Next patch will address the UI and give some feedback to the player about the locking process. I did notice a potential issue that could have caused the secure storage devices to drop to the ground and pushed another hotfix build 050https://github.com/EpochModTeam/Epoch/releases/tag/0.3.4.050Please note: Any existing secure storage devices that are already on the ground will need to be packed/replaced for this fix to work.

phm 12 Report post Posted October 19, 2015 Ok, it seems safes created when the problem existed continue to be problematic. New ones seem to work but the lock/unlock times are not consistent. Sometimes 10 seconds, sometimes 60. And if someone who doesn't own the safe attempts to open it, the safe will never unlock again for the owner.Can the safes be removed? I don't seem to be able to remove them via the build menu. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KPABATOK 195 Report post Posted October 19, 2015 Safes can be packed, just like lockboxes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phm 12 Report post Posted October 19, 2015 Safes can be packed, just like lockboxes.Yes, I saw "pack" in the list that appears when using the scroll wheel. What is "pack" and how will it help delete a safe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheVampire 585 Report post Posted October 19, 2015 Yes, I saw "pack" in the list that appears when using the scroll wheel. What is "pack" and how will it help delete a safe?You can "pack" a safe which allows you to pick it up as an item, and then re-build it. It being rebuilt should fix it in the new hotfix.

raymix 571 Report post Posted October 19, 2015 There's an unpredictable time delay when locking/unlocking safes, could be anything between 2 or 20 seconds. Next update will have a visual feedback for this issue, something like this: 4 serveratze88, KPABATOK, phm and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JerryAtricks 5 Report post Posted October 21, 2015 Might be a stupid question but why does it take time to unlock a safe? Why not just have them open immediately?Kewl new menus, btw. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Soanes 202 Report post Posted October 21, 2015 Might be a stupid question but why does it take time to unlock a safe? Why not just have them open immediately?Kewl new menus, btw. :)I would think it's to add an element of risk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KPABATOK 195 Report post Posted October 21, 2015 I always guess because of how server handles interaction with the world so to speak. Then again, it is odd that locking/unlocking vehicles is instant. So now I am not sure if it is not intentional. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the engine thing because how proxy is handled, but that's about to change and will work as fast as vehicle locking does.

KPABATOK 195 Report post Posted December 1, 2015 Haven't tested yet after 0.3.4 patch, how many satchels? I thought they were indestructable, didn't know it was fixed, which is nice. Lockboxes are easy to destroy for sure, 20-30 shots from any DLC gun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KPABATOK 195 Report post Posted December 1, 2015 Seems like a lockbox is harder to destroy than a safe now. I think safe should be possible to take out with an explosive charge or a satchel, not just shooting at it. Or at least it should require more than 10 shots from random gun. I guess for now it is better just to hide them protect them better. My safe is between 3 layers of cinder ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
