USER: Oh, we don't lose our backpack on death?
USER: I just noticed I still have everything in it.
ADMIN: it should be? didn't that happen?
ADMIN: :O
USER: No.​

Two ways to reproduce.

1. Be admin. F1 god false. Activate noclip via keybind. Fly straightup with shift pressed, while flying up deactivate noclip with keybind and you retain momentum flying up... get flyhack kicked. Reconnect. You are dead from falling. You still have your backpack.

2. Be no admin. Disconnect. Have a player kill you. Reconnect. You are dead. You still have your backpack.

:..(

This also happened to a player that was killed by heli fighting it from a cave, unsure of how to reproduce.

Thanks mate. 

On our server. Most people report they keep everything even with drop on death set to true. 

The flyhack kick method dropped a backpack. However when I reconnected and respawned I was not able to open my backpack until I either reconnected again or reloaded the plugin with o.reload Backpacks. It is not uncommon for people to get FlyHacked pulling stunts from helicopters or whatever. Someone confirm the reproduction steps, please.

Steps:
Be admin. F1 god 0. Have items in your backpack. Activate noclip via keybind. Fly straight up with shift held down. While flying straight up deactivate noclip with the keybind to retain upward momentum. Get FlyHack kicked. Reconnect. Observe that you died from fall. Respawn either on the beach or in a bed. Observe that you cannot open your backpack through the keybind or the chat command. Press ESC, Play, Select your server, click Join Server. Observe that you can open your backpack.

(I'm Shooteroo and have auth 2. I also tried granting backpacks.use to admin even though it's redundant and still got the glitch.)

I've just published an update which should hopefully fix backpacks not dropping if they haven't been loaded/opened since the last disconnect or server save (if that related option is enabled).

Good morning.

After 3 weeks of running the new update, people still come with the same ongoing issues. Backpacks not being dropped, backpacks being lost, backpacks that do being dropped but can't be picked up or falls trough map and on some occasions they are happy as it does work as intended to do.

Sadly, when they die, they most likely keep it. Yesterday, I never saw someone hyped so badly when he still had its loot in his backpack. I asked Fnet to be so kind as to keep an eye on that particular mod as it had issues but they can't report anything as there is no error to be found in the console or logs.
