Hi @Gloatingtomb6, have you only noticed this happening to the mentioned NPCs?

We’ll forward the issue to our team in any case.

Hello @mongo300, are you experiencing this on single-player or in an online official server?

If on single-player, could you let us know what your NPC Respawn multiplier is set to in the server settings?

Made a minor version with some tweaks reported by one of the testers of th Zombie feature.

1.4.4 (19 april 2021)

• The “Looks like this is an unkillable Zombie :’(” message should not be displayed anymore if the server was successfully killed just before
• The “Checking if SteamCMD started…” should appear less frequently now
  Dedicated Server Launcher 1.4.4

If it works for everybody, it will replace 1.3.8 as the new version, if you found some blockers, please tell ...

Hey there,

As @Narelle pointed out above, we’re aware of this issue and we’re working on a fix.
We’ll proceed to close the thread as it steered into some less-than-constructive conversation.

Apologies for the frustration this issue may cause, and thanks for the feedback.

Hi @KmKn, there’s no date for the upcoming performance update, we’re working hard to get it out as soon as possible.

Could you provide a short video showcasing the base where you’re experiencing performance issues so that we have a reference to provide to development?

Regarding NPCs getting stuck, this is a known issue for this patch that has been improved in the upcoming 2.4 update.

Hey @Gloatingtomb6, could you let us know if you notice this in subsequent sandstorms, as well as the specific location you’re in when it happens?

Hello @rockvision, as CodeMage mentioned, it’s likely that they’re using unicode, which is something we hope to fix as soon as possible.

In the meantime, feel free to reach out to us through Zendesk as abuse of this exploit to impersonate other players and clans is something we can act upon:

Hello, we apologize for this situation but, unfortunately, we’re unable to offer any assistance with the restoration of items.

Did your friend happen to check your event log for a possible cause of death?

Hello @mongo300, welcome to the forums.

Is this happening in both single-player and online?

Could you provide us with a short video of the occurrence and a screenshot of the in-game map pointing at the exact location?

Hello @carterk888, there was an issue with the server configuration files after the latest patch that has since then been resolved, so it should no longer be possible to experience this behavior.

Hello @KudosDude, the server has been restored and experienced no further crashes since your report took place, apologies for the inconvenience.

For any future Official server issue report, please send us your Official server report via Zendesk as detailed below:
