After the recent update I am receiving reports of all builds disappearing. Happens after each restart. All lifetimes of Watchtower and fence are correct and they are not on the cfgignorelist. Though there are Watchtower and Fence in the ignorelist, they have cheatCheck="1". This is part of the vanilla code though.

I figured out the problem.
The ignore list has changed. It would really be nice if DayZ would let people know about updates ahead of time so they can fix things like this. One message giving people heads up would be nice.

You know, it really shows a lack of professionalism in this company when they roll out an update that impacts people's servers by changing a major piece of information in the code that deleted everyone's bases, all watchtowers, gates, and fences. The fact that this wasn't announced days, if not weeks, in advance is just unacceptable. It feels very unprofessional and like a fly-by-night operation.
Does this company care about Community Servers?

Hello Abear1440.
The change was stated in patch notes.
Also if you revert to a backup and delete those lines BEFORE starting the server then everything should load without issues. (And retrieve the lost bases)
