So I found an armored quad bike at this mine i found, of course it was working and had a bit of fuel so i grabbed it, and filled it up with most of my loot, after leaving and coming back a few hours later i reloaded to find my quad bike gone, I decided to go back to the mine to find no quad but one of the previously wrecked vehicles had turned into a military transport, a working one too,

its rather frustrating to find hours of looting disappearing into thin air for no reason

current version I’m using is 0.5

Yeah, this is part of the same bug that is causing map data to be lost IIRC. I believe one of the current things believed to help it is to not use the autosave system, but other then that I know it’s still being worked on.
