VG Lost MTVR

Today, I placed a plot pole, and then retrieved the MTVR.  Taking items out and storing others, I got into the truck, and drove it about a foot forward from where it was spawned in.  I then stored the MTVR with gear, receiving the message that it was stored.  I went to get my Armored SUV and moved it close to the Plot pole to store as well, and when I went to store the SUV, the MTVR was not there.  Only the Jackal that I have had for about a day.  I stored the SUV successfully and then deconstructed the Plot pole.  I then placed the pole again and only Jackal and SUV, no MTVR.

I had 12 weapons, nothing glorious, 1x2-stroke oil, and then about 24 various cooked meats and other misc totaling about 120 items.

This is the second time I lost a MTVR, the first time, I locked the truck and then stored it.

The above happened 9/26/2020 about 15 minutes before the restart at 1500 Central time.

sorry to hear this but if im not mistaken this many have been a simple server glitch where the server may have been saving the map and data before the restart and your truck may have been eaten in the process

I will confure with the other staff members to pinpoint the cause may have been

Typically this is caused by the VG not syncing properly due to logging in too soon after a restart.

(i.e. not waiting the full 5 minutes after a restart to login)

Understood, and I have made a point to not join until after 5+ minutes. I understand DayZ give-th and DayZ taketh-away.

I have made it a point to once the VG deployed, unlock and then drive before re-storage. It seems this process has been working for me. I may have hastily did something that caused the VG consumption.


Thank you for the investigation, and I apologize for not stating this, but I had not expected any reimbursement. Just an FYI to a possible bug.

Keep the server going, it is great!

HI i realise this might have already been looked at but as a new player to your map the VG has an issue it seems, i have made my vehicles with one key, the first issue is that when you store a vehicle it takes the key which mean i can't lock or unlock my other vehicles registered to it as i hadn't been able to make copies yet, second issue that now that i logged in after over night the MTVR has vanished along with all the goods i had in it. Figured it worth mentioning as it could impact others who play, i don't need a refund or any thing just wanted to let you know what the VG is doing. :-)

i could do with a replacement key though as the VG has eaten it and i can;t unlock my suv or jackle thanks
