Bloodeagle 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2015 I'm helping run a server while my friend is at Twitchcon. We had just launched the server to the public, and one thing people are noticing now that people are coming on and exploring is that you can go to other people's dino's and claim them as your own. I had this happen to me with my Pterodon. I was trying to help these people, and the guy just claimed it and flew off. You get this message "Claiming Allowed!" When you hover over the dino, and can just press E to instantly have the dino. Looking up the issue, I can see one thing that might be affecting this. ARK implemented a Dino Decay/Unclaim timer. Now I believe that the timer is set to like 0 or something, and they instantly get claimable. It only works in PVE, which I then unchecked Disable PVP to get rid of, but for some reason, the server is still in PVE mode. I really need help with this as I want the server to get back up as soon as possible for these players. If anyone knows how to fix the claiming timer(because I don't see a setting I can change in the config area) or how to fix it from being PVE even though disable PVP is unchecked, please let me know as soon as you can.

Bloodeagle 0 Report post Posted September 25, 2015 The Server Option is called "DisableDinoDecayPvE" and if set to false, anyone can claim someone else's dinos(http://ark.gamepedia.com/Server_Configuration) Now I have to figure out how to change this in the Survival Servers Control Panel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Pennington 359 Report post Posted September 26, 2015 I've added DisableDinoDecayPvE=True to the config tool until this issue is looked at further. I am currently at Twitchcon and when I return will take a more in depth look. Sorry about that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloodeagle 0 Report post Posted September 27, 2015 Having another issue on the server. The last time I restarted the server was to implement that fix you added. An automatic restart just happened, and from what people are telling me, the server reverted back to that restart. All the progress made in the last 12 hours was lost. I then used "cheat saveworld" to save the world, and the restarted the server after changing the auto restart to 24 hours. When I logged back in, the server had reverted back to the same state( I know this because I had changed my location, and logging back in put me back in the same spot as before). Not sure how to fix this, and I'm feeling bad that people are losing progress to this. Any help would be appreciated. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
