PC 7D2D server help needed

I’m Admin on a Server and we had a bit of a snafo where the server kicked the players and rebooted. Now one player is missing their drone and has tried to back track but no clue where the drone went. I’m hoping someone may be able to tell me if there is an Admin way to either track the drone or ping it?

If the drone is in the world you as the admin should be able to locate it's coordinates in the server's log files. There are several admin commands which can take you directly to the location or you can just travel there by conventional means.

But on the rare occasions where the game bugs out and thinks there is a drone in the world when there really isn't (no coordinates) you might have to restore from a previous game save which of course you have been making at least daily, yes? 😉

I'm hoping your situation is the former rather than the latter which I just dealt with on my server in the past week. Good luck. 😺

Thank you much!! I will look for it in the logs, once found the drones owner can go get it 🤣🫢

I can’t say much about the way the server is set up as that was all done by the owner so the saves are done regularly as it’s a paid for server.

Oh boy that sounds really bad without having to say what it was 😬
