I am so sorry for missing this comment, I swear I did not get an email notification about this

Yes, the new backpacks are also "items" that will be retrieved.

But as I saw: you bought, tested and reviewed the plugin.
Thanks a lot, I am glad it solved your problem!

yes I definitely a must-have for all servers, why wouldn't you want yo protect your players right?

The new backpack, an official RUST item, is buried in the ground and disappears...

Do you still use this plugin on your servers today? does it work well?

Does it work if a bag falls through the terrain under say a raidable base etc and it can bring to the top of the foundation?

Did this ever happen to you that the bag glitched UNDER a foundation AND trough the terrain?

Glitching under the terrain mostly happens when you get killed when being very close to the terrain or when moving fast towards it (dropping from / crashing with a helicopter).

If you want, I can demonstrate it on my test server

I can give you temporary admin rights (so you can use noclip) and test whatever you want.

Has anyone used this on Carbon?  I have am using Carbon and would LOVE to have this plugin.

I can confirm that it doesn't always work properly on my server either.
I tell players that "it will not function perfectly 100% of the time."
Sometimes only the backpack can be retrieved, and other times only the body can be looted.

I'm also using Carbon, so it might be caused by that environment.

Awesome!  Thank you for this.  I will take something over nothing.

Hi Next,

thanks for your honest feedback. It like to have a look deeper in this, why it does not always work. Currently, I am working on more detailed logging (for admins only) so you can see what glichted where and why it was (not) retreived. Like: "Permission not set for player xyz" or "item was more than x meters below the ground" (which is a threshold of my plugin, to determine if an admin threw it under the terrain on purpose).

If you guys find any clues WHEN/WHERE it does not work, please drop me a DM and i''ll glady try to reproduce the problem.
Like "when dying in monument xyz" or "when killed by a timed explosive" etc.
THe more details the better

I'm not running a real carbon server myself, just for test cases. Since the used logic is the same as for oxide, carbon SHOULD not be the problem, but I can't garantuee this.

"Irretrievable items often occur when you die from a time bomb."

Since the update, I've seen a ALOT of items being retrieved. Now, it could be a glitchy map, maybe the new jungle biome, I don't know but for example, here's 1 minute of my log with about 10 players on the server.

my bad, that was (just) a debug information. no error, no glitched item.
you can just remove the line

if(baseEntity is DroppedItemContainer) Puts("DroppedItemContainer spawned");

or download the latest version of the plugin
