Power Armor respawn time?

[⚜ ⚔ ☢ Mr.Oroboto]

Hi,

So i'm trying to gather the pieces for my first t-45 but i'm only lacking an arm piece, i've looked over the internet for spawn points, went at all of them and found some.

But a bit later i decided to do another run, changed server, and i ouldnt find one at any places.

So i was wondering if they were depending on a clienside timer, and if yes, how long of wait it is?

tbh its more efficient to server hop. The timer should be 24 hours since its a "world item" and not in a container

From what I read from a (possibly oudated) Reddit thread, regarding items in the in-game world:

- Each player in the server will roll a chance for an item to reappear, so therotically the more players there are on the server, the higher the chance for something to appear at any given location. However the chance is only rolled when the player is in the vicinity. (Not sure of the distance.)

- The game also supposedly keeps track of the last 180 items you picked up. If you go back to an area with items before reaching that limit, the spawn chance doesn't roll. Anything past the 180 limit would probably have a chance to respawn again, but whether or not you need to server change I don't know.

However, because Power Armor parts are technically both in a container, (the frame) AND also viewable in the game world, I'm not sure if it works the same way.

But, is it a client side timer? Because yesterday i hopped like 10 - 15 time between Silva homestead and Levis & Son farming supplies and found nothing!

Server sided timer for junk thats laying around in the open world etc. Container loot is different

Here. Not the exact same one I remember reading but still. Keep in mind this is 8 months ago:
