Bolts disappear when they hit zombies
Reviewed, NormalPublic

Description

When I tested the crossbow on the experimental server (DayZ Livonia EU - DE 9485 (Experimental/Unstable)), I noticed the following: when I tried to shoot back from the surrounding zombies, climbing onto a broken car (near the water source in Nadbor), some bolts that got into them disappeared after the first killing of zombies without the possibility of picking up / finding them, moreover, one of the bolts was carbon and the body of the zombie it hit lay on a flat surface, free of foreign objects that could interfere with the detection of the bolt.

Hello bmv87.
We could not reproduce the issue on our end. However, If the bolt was Ammo_HuntingBolt maybe its because some bolts are flying through the infected (penetration).

I believe I can tell you how to re-create this error. It seems if you reload the next bolt before trying to get the current bolt stuck in the zombie. The error occurs,. Sometimes it shows and has no prompt, other times it completely disappears. When the bolt is still showing, you can unload the current bolt and load directly into the crossbow.
