Outpost destroyed or ... ?

[Smakit]

New to Kenshi and had a question. Do enemies just tear up your buildings if you leave them undefended? Though a loading tip said you could safely leave and explore, but might be outdated.

Anyhow, I built up a farm, well, stone mine, and processor. They were just outside of Hub where it was considered out of town enough to build. Had purchased a house inside and had one guy researching there.

Took my other guy to the nearby town, hired a new person, and came back. All traces of the outpost outside were gone. No debris (if that's a thing) or any signs of trouble. Still marked on the map with a blue x showing the location.

Not sure if I missed an alert or they just came by or if it is just another bug. I already had to use import as the town near the hub was completely vacant (not murdered just empty, one shop had items no longer flagged as stealing but rest were normal, just no people). It fixed that.

In this case, however, I tried importing a few times but nothing, so I figured maybe it was just destroyed? Just looking into it, thanks for any info.

the tool tip is correct.
what you are experiencing is a new bug thats started up recently.

Gotcha. Appreciate the heads up.

the new bug is still there.
I had a similar issue.
I built THREE bases and i decided (after weeks - real time - of building and collecting items) I decided to empty the bases and go exploring.

several (real) days later, i came back to find that *everything* is gone - just as OP described.

the most galling thing (apart from the inference that this bug has not been addressed since it was known in Aug 2018) is that there were loads of high end supplies that i was saving in my bases, as well as some hard to get tech stuff.

Fortunately, i love the game and my squad had some loot that enabled them to start afresh.

One is assuming that this wont happen if someone is left at the base?

anyway... im pretty sure that this issue will be a game breaker for many and i think that this particular bug should be remedied or at least players should be made aware of the issue.
(and apologies if this is a very rare bug and im making it sound like a biggie!)

"One is assuming that this wont happen if someone is left at the base?"

I've never had this happen in 500 hours of play, and I normally have someone at base. But on the occasions I take everyone out exploring the base is normally only left empty for a few in-game days. So yeah, leave someone there or don't stay away too long, I guess.
