I had set up a workshop in a double garage @86 km, hauling everything there for fixing. My "fleet" at the time consisted of one Lada, two Tucker, a Mustang and two trailers. The Lada and the Mustang in working order although not complete. One of the Tuckers had most parts and could easily be made to drive if I used unoriginal parts.

Anyway, I saved the game and took a break. When I returned, outside my workshop, everything looked normal at first. I'd made a note that there was a GTR at a billboard after 84 km, so I went back there to tow it to the garage... however, the GTR was no longer there!

Frustrated, I went back to my workshop, only to discover to my horror, that ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING was gone. ALL my cars, trailers, parts!

I quit without saving, to hear people here for advice. I can't and won't just shrug and continue without everything I've worked so hard for, so I really hope this can be fixed.

I'm new to the game and I'm also not sure whats going on.
If you turn all the random loot and random seed things off maybe you could have done what you tried.

It seems when I have all the random stuff on I can't go backwards because the loot changes ?

Same with saving. If you run the same save 3 times the loot will always change infront of you & proberbly behind you.

I seem to have not had this problem when all the random generation was turned off.

Sorry I have not tested any of this I just wanted to post here to try to help.

You might want to backup all your saves into another folder before you start overwriting to many of them.

Wile you work on a fix.

Edit: I would suggest to backup your entire save folder. Just chuck a copy on your desktop. Then try your saves but turn off any random loot generation or seed generation and see if you can at least recover your current cars from some save.

Developers doesn't answered oin this problem. I think, the best way to fix it - payback. It's just disrespect

All he has to do is load a backup save bringing him back to the point before he left his garage. They should be under "Load" > Backup History instead of "Continue"

Hi guys, this just happened to me. I was able to restore my car but with an older backup save. About 4 down on the list of backup saves, worked for me.

I ran it on directX 12 when this happened to me. Since I started the game in DirectX 11 I haven't had the disappearing car issue again. Hope this helps!

Yes, loading an old save brings back the lost items, but it's all on borrowed time, cause anything you don't take with you will be lost again.

I know it's supposed to be a driving game of a nomadic nature, and not an alternative to Car Mechanic Simulator, but it just feels bad and unrealistic that everything vanishes like that.

I was so looking forward to building all the cars at my workshop and I had a full front court of parts lined up for all the future projects... to no avail.

Pressing M teleports you to your car

Same here I loaded the game and my car is gone inventory items are there but what should I do with those 🫥

And here i am thinking of getting this and with a high 80's rating.

[zombygunner]

is it possible to make a car and them drive it somewhat far away then park it and get another car and travel and park it so that way you never have to run far for another vehicle? i use this tactic on some maps in Snowrunner that have no gas stations i have to create a chain of trucks or gas from trucks to reach across the map.

Nope, everything disappears after you travel a few kms (even vehicles), if it's not in/on your car or a towed vehicle it's going to go bye bye, with no way of getting things back (without reloading an old save file).

brutal..i may buy it.

I Just got the game yesterday but have yet to have items disappear. The most I've driven away from my midway spot I chose is about 15km max in both directions. What I do find is items I left on shelfs or even the floor are scattered around the area they were in. I came searching to find out if placing items in the world was pointless in an organizational sense, but now I feel I've gotten lucky as all items and cars have still been there just scattered around. The only thing that's changed was new spawned food and drinks.

By chance, does working on a car by adding a motor, door, or wheel make it so it doesn't despawn? I usually add a door or remove items and after driving back they're still there.
