Platform: Xbox Series X
Issue Type: Gameplay
Game Mode: Online Official
Server Type: PvE-Conflict
Map: Isle of Siptah
Server Name: 7057
Bug Description:
Building decaying as playing
Bug Reproduction:
Our clan had a few bases on server in different locations, we don’t play every day but are on a couple times a week. For a few of our bases now they have decayed overnight and the other day as one of our players were in the base. We have noticed the same clan decaying a couple of the buildings however one only had doors and benches cleared and building was still there with no names in event log.
Base decay timmer only refresh when you are near them , if you have a base in the south & the north , and you play for 10 days without going to the north base or near it at all , then it will decay even if you play on the server every day. the repair hammer can let you see the decay timmer of your base when held in hand. if the base decay timmer is “0” then the base enter the “abandonned” state for 24h before disapearing ( it’s a grace period ) meaning anyone else can destroy your entire base if the destroy a fundation , and loot you if they destroy the placeables first ( placeables are : doors, chests , benches and decorations ) since this won’t make the base go poof , a lot of people only loot leaving the base in case the person comes back ( those are the “nice” ones ) , others will have no mercy and destroy the base after looting ( Deacon the destroyer is one example ) hope this help you understand what happens and to prevent future losses
I don’t think your understanding, we are in those bases a couple times a week. Hammer says it’s max time and they still decay. Even had one that we are in all the time decay while one of our guys were in it.
While the obvious things are good to cover, after that what should be considered is that there have been multiple decay issues in the last year reported, including this possible instance.
ive seen the same thing several times and ive lost three entire bases to decay bugs over the years. all three bases we lost were used by multiple players every day and had full decay timers when we logged off for the day. at reset the bases poofed. we also recently has to disassemble and base because parts of it kept decaying while it was in use. it would show full timer then 10 minutes later it would show decayed.
