I played on the official experimantel server DE-01 today when i noticed that if you change for example your axe with a new one and shortly after the server restarts, you still have your old axe in the inventory but also the same axe replaced the one on the ground. The axe in my inventory was ruined and i picked up a similiar one which was damaged. Then, after the server restarted, my axe in the inventory was ruined but the one on the ground was too. I also noticed this with other objects (loaded guns, food, matches). I think it's maybe a problem with the saving of character and world status when the server restarts. Maybe the character status gets saved a little bit earlier then the world status.

It was a little bit difficult to reproduce the error because the server restartet randomly (sometimes after a half hour, sometimes one hour, even sometimes after 20 minutes). But if you want to reproduce it, just change a inventory object with a similar one on the ground shortly befor restart (i would say about 30 to 20 seconds before restart).
This is maybe seem not such a big issue, but when you run your own server it's easy to double weapons and other stuff because you can restart the server on your own (it's not allowed, i know, but people do it anyway). I was able to double even a loaded rifle. I just changed it with the same type of gun, which was not loaded. After restart, the gun in my inventory and the gun on the ground were fully loaded. I think it would be possible to even double the whole backpack, because it worked with a jacket and a apple (the apple was placed in the jacket). After restart there was the same jacket on the ground and i had a second apple. I just did this for research (i was standing in the woods for about 20 minutes always changing the jacket), i didn't use any of the items i doubled that way. I just wanted to know if my intuition was right. Also, sorry, i forgot to make a screenshot.
