MISSING CAR AND TIRES

[Harambe]

first I died and when I went back to the menu and went to load a game, the car is gone. I've been working on finding parts for a new car and I find three tires. I leave and come back with an engine, one of the tires is gone.

happens ..
1) the best thing you did was quit out Not 'revive'
2) the second thing would be to quit to Desktop then restart the game ..

even after building and driving ..
the car would be at last saved point of having it ..
probably near the second to last place it was drived ..

if it was a car you were building (or working on ..
there should be no reason it wasn't in place where you left it ..

If you died while working on the car and didn't save prior to dying that tire would indeed be missing ..
(but that not always the case)

what happened to you with tire missing also happened to me ..

Can't fix any car. Cars are for taking parts off of them to fix the allowed vehicles.

Truck/SUV
There are several ways to tell if you can repair the vehicle even before entering.
1) Rusted out, no good.
2) Broken windows, no good.
3) Sitting on the ground/falls to the ground when you get near, no good.
4) Doors already open, no good.
5) Had fuel in it automatically, no good
6) If you hover over the door and your options are (E) Open Door and (F) Enter No Good. The repairable vehicle door options are: (E) Interact Car Door and (F) Drive.


Before you start building it up,you can get in the vehicle. A repairable vehicle will have a whole sub screen open showing vehicle status (Engine, battery, gas, all 4 wheels) a sub menu for starting/stopping engine, turning lights on or off and the Tach/speedometer.

Non Repairable vehicles are in the game to provide parts, Engine, Battery, Tires, Gas and Loot which can be in the seat, on the dash board, in the glove compartments or in the trunk. * Side note: sometimes a derelict vehicle, those really broken ones and school bus, may have something sitting on the inside, Normally I find loose bullets in them, IF they have anything.

Do not use junker vehicles for storage, they re-spawn and most of the time, reset back to what was original, minus the material you took off. So if the vehicle had one tire and you add the other three, the game remembers this junker only had one tire, and resets the other 3 slots back to blank. And Fuel is always a random reset at this time.

happened to me ..

i had a prior save spot at old shack not far from the old mine ..

how ever i also saved before going in the mine on the road
(twice saved going in and coming out on the street)

after second save a Mist came so i decided to run for it back to shack ..
on the way to the shack my car flipped ..
i exited the game came back ..

the save should have brought me to street out side of mine ..
But it didn't instead placed me at safe house ..

when i went back to oldmine car wasn't there ..

It was at the shack where i saved at to spend the night ..
(two saves ago)

so unless you have a back up save of that day ..
go to the last two save places you were ..

The other car (drivable) should be there ..

damned bugs. hopefully this is fixed next big update

[slayerofgods]

With the next big update being all of zone 1, I do expect to find a lot of new things. but many of them fixed by a hotfix. overlaping hit boxes, not able to interact with something or the dreaded bad luck a person has who finds a place that the ground is not right. During v5 days there were some really odd things on that map like telephone poles placed in roads, or fences not aligned with the road so you had to drive across the rough ground. and a lot of places that characters or vehicles would suddenly find themselves in freefall.

Since I have stated playing, it seems the buggs are getting fewer. but new ones pop up.
