How do you pickup a barrel? and how do you pack a tent?

[streom]

Questions above, decided to try some base building, no idea how to pickup a barrel, there is no interraction button no matter what i try

[SireSteelHell]

the pickup box is a little glitchy, (especially on the tent) u have to reposition yourself till you get the "hold f to take to arms" notification

i will only say thanks to an advice if it works, it clearly doesnt work, ive picked up tents and barels in previous versions of DayZ, this one seems broken. Maybe because the barrel is green and meant for "fire" or "cooking" or something, ill find another one and test it again, and yes it was obviously empty and the lid was closed. Until that you are concidered trolls.
Who cares about his time if his advice doesnt work, should i thank everybody who wastes time to type some useless text ? Like should i thank you for wasting your time aswel? nobody forced you to come here, leave if you dont like it.

As i said it doesnt work, if somebody comes up with something useful, thats when he will recieve a thanks and the thread will be finished.

[BAMMARGERA]

his advice does work we just didnt have all the information to fully help. and hope you have a nice day

If a barrel is left open when the server restarts i can't pick it up anymore for some reason.
Other than that it could have items in it then you won't be able to pick it up, it only works with empty barrels.
