How to save a certain amount of loot for vip players after a wipe?

Keep on wipe permissions

If you want to allow backpacks of specific players or groups to retain different items across wipes than the default (Clear on wipe > Default ruleset), then you may do so via permissions. Each ruleset defined in the Clear on wipe > Rulesets by permission config option will cause the plugin to generate a permission of the format backpacks.keeponwipe.<name>. Granting that permission assigns that ruleset to the corresponding players or groups.

The following permissions come with the plugin's default configuration. Additional keep-on-wipe rulesets can be defined in the config, which will generate additional permissions..

• backpacks.keeponwipe.all -- Allows all items to be kept across wipes.

Note: If a player is granted multiple backpacks.keeponwipe.* permissions, the last will apply, according to the ruleset order in the config.

When I wipe, either all items are deleted or they are not deleted at all

Merged post

where is the data about the number of slots stored and what is in them? since the oxide/data/bakckpacks folder stores data on all the loot in the user's backpack

I have never had any backpack loot lost from anyone on the server who has the permission (backpacks.keeponwipe.all ) since that permission was introduced. make sure that no other plugin that deals with backpacks or loot is conflicting .

true. but it saves loot for everyone no matter what group they are in, vip or default

it only saves loot for a player or a group that has the permission. so unless you have given the permission to default players they will lose the loot when you wipe.

Just got it working. After 2 days of tons of testing, wipes and server restarts. Thanks everyone for the info.
