Please do something about vehicles exploding on spawn | Forums

[Pilchenstein]

Pretty much every base I've approached in the last few days has spawned a vehicle which immediately exploded while I was still half a kilometre away, leading to an alert and usually a call for reinforcements. Reinforcements that, despite me not being responsible for or anywhere near the explosion, travel straight to my location and search for me. Since I'm playing solo and taking bases stealthily, I basically start every assault by killing a bunch of reinforcements and then hiding out for five minutes until the base calms down.

I can't see any good reason why the default behaviour for a vehicle being spawned inside terrain (which is what I assume is causing the issue) to be "explode immediately" when you could just despawn it or move it slightly.

Maybe reinstall the game I've logged 250hours and never happened to me before

[Pilchenstein]

Good for you but lol at the idea that reinstalling the game will fix this. Do you think maybe my vehiclesnotexplode.dat file is corrupted? :V

same issue. some vehicle in the middle of their base randomly explodes and somehow it's my fault

This just started happening saw it first time tonight. Also......250 hours already? Dam no girlfriend obviously lol

Started happening to me too for the first time today, so it's probably a bug of some sort. A 184 hours inn.
It wasn't a big problem since I mostly approach in heli, so I just turned around and waited for everything to cool down, but it is annoying.
I thought maybe the Outcast had started to blow **** up :-)

Can confirm, remember ~5 times things go kabloom when I get near base with no apparent reason. At least that now hints what might be going on.

Yup, been noticing this happening more and more. At first it was funny.....
