I can also confirm this. All the fence gates I have placed on my server since the last update eventually become invisible walls, even when opened.

The worst of it is when peoples bases load in at around 1.3km away. Major desync and lag.

your username is adequate.

yeah I wish if you pull an item from your inv the game will hold those slots for you.
Lost a few glocks because I've pulled it from my bag, reloaded but the empty mag goes into the 4x4 slot the gun was pulled from instead of swapping the mag into the slot the full one was pulled from...
Go to switch weapons or use an item or something and you end up dropping the pistol and losing it.

Be cool if there was some sort of a placeholder system in the inventory to avoid this.

Can confirm, this happened to me yesterday.

Well, I never suggested it would be simple.
And at the end of the day, isn't that what pre-alpha state is for - development?
Better if they fuck up now than in a years time when its in full release version... That would be all kinds of carnage.

And I know it's obviously it's not something that you can just go BOSH it's done with, or perhaps in the case of the Arma engine it's not something that can be done at all.
But many other games have done it or something similar with engines that are much more outdated.

I think I figured it out...
Last night me and a friend were playing on our regular server when it reset.

Now, ever since I lost all my shit the last time I always sit there and refresh the server until It's running and there's people joined on to it just to be sure...

My friend, he joined immediately after the server appeared in the list. At that time the server time said 8:00. I kept refreshing and after about 20-30 seconds the time them went to 12:01.
As I waited until I saw people had started to join again my friend started yelling and shouting that his char had been reset.
When I saw the time was 12:02 and people had joined I then joined with no issues...

Could it be that there is a period when a server restarts that it isn't connected or properly communicating with the hive?
Maybe when you join when the server is in this state it can't recieve your character file and so spawns you as a freshie then when the server is fully initialised starts communicating with the hive and over-writes your data file with your new fresh spawn?

I've come across quite a few boxes of .45 ammo!
Found 3 boxes of the stuff on balota air field just this evening.

What I have noticed though is a DISTINCT lack of ALL ammo/weapons/gear though.
I was up at N/W airfield this morning and the place was full of boots... Not even a single bullet, gun or piece of gear... Just a shit load of garbage.
