why is my base disappearing??

[Graynuts]

after building a base . i log in the next day an it disappears. it was there for several days. probably a week. an then poof its gone. does the public serers ( none acceltrated time) have persistance? so things stay there

[One Shot]

There is persitance issue with base building at moment, devs confirmed this, sometimes it can disappear next day or few hours later and others can take a week or longer to disappear.
Other than that players can use certain items to remove base objects

[Private Pyle]

your not the only one. I just want to build and loot ya know what i mean.

[Graynuts]

YA I JUST WANT TO LOOT AN BUILD MY BASE AN KILL PEOPLE
why cant i do that yet . an i want to fish, use animial hides to make cloths . an just go off grid for a long time.

[Dr. Sinister]

Because it got dark and you logged off and I logged on. I destroyed it.

Can you tell me please where exactly did you build? And before you or any other personage starts to freak out, i am not after your loot. I have 3 bases with so much stuff i literally am giving away to randoms.
But i am asking because there is an invisible border on the map beyond which your base and any other persistent object is subjected to random wipes. It has been also comfirmed on devs' twitter so i am not pulling this out of my ... hat.
I learned the lesson the hard way and now i am building only within that "border". 2 weeks now, all the cars, barrels, tents, battery chargers, flood lights, generators and cable reels are still there.

How can we find out where this border is? i'm really sick of losing what took weeks to obtain.

[Pacifist]

The issue is tied to server crashes and its impact on the persistence file. The devs are aware of this.

I personally suggest joining a community server that uses common scripts that backup the persistence every 30 minutes or so. This will help you avoid losing all of your work. And yes, this is just a band-aid fix for now until the devs sort the issue but if you want build this is the best way for now.

i've build in the middle of the map and still everything vanished,invisible border ROFL

[Graynuts]

ya uh.. tell you where my base location is ?!
that sounds like a good plan. so well anyway . i guess until a big update theres no fixing the persistance problem .. (if my base hasnt been looted in 5 days besides me then it in a good spot yes ?)

[Dr. Sinister]

So, I play on a community server and nothing has disappeared from that one and I run my own dedicated server to which again, nothing has disappeared. My bases are exactly where I left them

basic persistence is not currently a thing in Dayz.

Yeah I mean all the people logging in each day with the gear from the previous one in camps / bases that just appeared by magic are hallucinating, right ??

I bet you found all this in a single session too huh ??
