What am I suppose to do on server restart

[A Slav]

Before a server restart happens I'm usually driving around and then after the restart I end up in the middle of no where with no car. Am I suppose to store my car and like stay in the city or what?

Get out of your vehicle just a bit early (2-3 minutes) before the actual restart. This might help it save. But yes, try to be near a vendor/town whenever the server restarts. Sometimes you get lucky and your vehicle will save, sometimes not so much.

Make sure you sync often before a restart.

Also, during restart, mute ARMA, go sit in the corner of your room, cry and just hope you don't get all sorts of diseases from group chat.

8/10 of the times it will be, yes.

A pretty good chance it will be. Just hide in a bush, guard your car and sync data. You should be good.

I like to sync inside the car.  For me that always make the car come after restart

I do this as well and I only had my car despawn once using this technique

When the 1 minute comes up, basically just stop what you're doing. Sync data and wait, if you're in a car sync in the car, if in a town, sync and then you can either log out or wait and hear everyone yelling.
