Toon reset randomly.
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Hello, My char seems to reset and I start as a fresh spawn.I didn't die or anything like that and it seems to be happening a lot the past few days. I only play on one or two servers( hosted by the same company)and one of the servers is one that I rent. I have put in a ticket with the server provider to reset the server configuration. Even after that I still get reset this morning. So it seems I cant play at all without being reset randomly to a fresh spawn.( example: ill loot stuff etc. and then log out. When i log in I'm reset). I realize you have different chars for hardcore and regular so that is not the case.

Sometime reset does'nt meant what we think. It appends to me few days ago, I was following someone. I think he saw me and goes hiding into a house. When a came a few second later, I saw him disconnected to avoid me... I just shoot him for his cowardice.
You can assume that during the 15 seconds it takes to disconnect, someone or a zombie kills you and it as nothing to do with a bug.
So my advise is next time you must disconnect in front of a friend who wait for you to disappear completely and if at next connection you're freshspawn that's a bug, otherwise you can assume it's not.

Thanks for the tip, but I log out on a second floor or higher just for the whole 20secs char delay. So I don't get killed.Yet still I get reset randomly, so it seems me getting killed after logging out isn't the problem.It sounds like a problem with my char info saving on the "hive" after I log out.

The guy I killed also disconnected on second floor of piano house. Not a protection against players ;)

*I was on a server with just 2 friends. 3 people total including myself. I tested this last night.

Other hypothesis : you disconnect on second floor, nobody kills you, but your character glitch through the floor and falls.
When player disconnects I've seen that the character sits down while doing a step backward, going through wall and sometime falls.
Append to me : disconnect at second floor near wall, reconnect outside house with broken legs. I assume sometime character dies since you can kill yourself jumping from your own height.
