Msato Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 (edited) Currently any vehicle despawns after 2 hours of the owner not being logged in, this really hinders any form of continued interaction with vehicles. This timer should be increased back to the previous timer of 6 hours. This will allow further RP with stolen & abandoned vehicles, and assists in making the recent turfs implementation smoother for those who are looking to chop vehicles. Prior to the despawn timer reduction it allowed for a sense of environment around public hotpots, houses and hq's as relevant vehicles would almsot always be visible at them. This is now lost and hinders immersion heavilly. Image before: https://i.imgur.com/WojypF9 Edited September 30, 2020 by CallumMontie 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

isBrainDed Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Does it not reset if someone interacts with the vehicle in 2 hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yputi Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Does it not reset if someone interacts with the vehicle in 2 hours? No. Only if the owner is online.. Only way to "reset" the timer is to park and unpark the vehicle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JakeInnit_ Posted August 22, 2020 Report Share Posted August 22, 2020 Aye my cars keep despawning because my mates use them while I am offline so I login to just a mess of cars scattered across the map which have despawned while in-use. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BubblezDaFish Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 +1 I agree with the idea but I think 4 hours is a lot more reasonable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RishabJaiswal Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 +1 I agree with the idea but I think 4 hours is a lot more reasonable +1 i agree, since cars get despawn so after every 2hours there are spaces in NCZ, to park other players' cars which make lot of cars parked in small NCZ area which is unrealistic. If they find area is already full of cars they will park somewhere else. It will also fix issue like: when people are online together most car spawn in NCZ, above each other or flip the cars which spawned earlier or as they spawn and crash make the parking look bad. 6 hours is also too much we can agree on 4 hours or 5 hours.

Copperhorse Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 +1, I believe this was done to increase server performance when we were hitting 600-700 players. We now only cap around 450-500 and I believe it can be reverted or made to be 6-8 hours of offline time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeRose Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 +1 server isnt reaching 600+ or even 450+ anymore, should be reverted it hardly reaches 300 at peak time. many times should be reverted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xoza Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Encountered this yesterday... +/- I think 3 hours is a good compromise... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladypapercrown Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 +1, I think the 2 hour de spawn time is too short especially with the recent addition of turfs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weecey Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 +1 With new chops shops, its proving even harder to locate vehicles in a reasonable enough place to not conduct a public robbery of a vehicle, and especially on timezones like 11AM UTC, there is nothing.

Xoza Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) 3 hours gives you plenty of time, even if you've only found the vehicle, you could have 1-2 hours to find a solution. In addition it also still balances the profit from the chop, not so much that tons of cars would be available for chopping, but just enough to keep the potential profit gain, still balanced. You can do a lot in an hour. Edited August 28, 2020 by Xoza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
