This may have already been reported, but you can glitch a sleeping bag through walls into peoples houses, and then respawn inside, effectively taking over their house.

I previously stated on this, with the doors. People should know by now that you can glitch sleeping bags through foundations and walls.
Edited:
I think helk already knows about griefers using these kind of tactics, but reposts keep the people informed.
Just wanted to double check anyway. It's a bit demoralizing when you can't even get a few minutes safety inside your house you spent an hour making.
Cheers.
How close are you too the main spawn area? The propensity for trolling increases exponentially in relation to how easy it is to be trolled. I've found the coast to be fairly out of the way. There's also some nice mountains/fields out of the way that should prove to discourage most from coming to see you. I've found the best insurance is to have a few houses close together. If a troll thinks he might be going up against multiple people they'll probably break off from you and attack more vulnerable targets.
The drawback is the more out of the way locations are further from those precious loot spawns. Just gotta weigh your options.
I'm pretty far away from everything, though everyone else had the same idea as me and now there's 3 houses next to mine.
When will this be fixed? Legacy is unplayable at the moment, admins of community servers can not cover for this kind of glitching.
It won't be fixed.
I think the solution to this would be to ban sleeping bags on a server and add a /home command which could be used only once to prevent abusing this. Of course sleeping bags are key element of the game and they allow for multiple spawn locations across the map but I'd rather have just 1 spawn location rather than getting glitch raided every day.
There are currently two plugins which attack this issue. I myself plan to attempt one. Banning sleeping bags is not necessary, merely have a radius around a person's foundation to put sleeping bags. Banning bags is rather effective however.
Gragos, Garry won't add any /commands to the vanilla game, he hates them.
Ananda, this will not be patched. The legacy branch is not being developed anymore, they're putting all of their time and effort into the new experimental branch. So you're better off just dealing with it or waiting until the experimental branch is finished.
Same here. I think I'll call it "GranTorino" :)
You can fix it by placing storage crates at the door at each corner blocking their way to lay down the sleeping bag. Also, since you are able to glitch through cracks (of your walls/corners) where you can open their boxes/place stuff. Make sure that you dont put your stuff near any corner/door. And again, make sure all your corners/doors are blocked by craftable stuff. This will prevent it.
This makes your base pretty much a snowball. But there is no other way around it at the moment.
Spike Walls fend them off well, inside or outside.
i agree.. i am an admin and i cant do anything about it...every base gets hit in one night wiping server
Most of the time this exploit is only used on servers that have TP. It's the only way to get out with the items. So get rid of TP and you can avoid this on a lot of servers.
Now I know there are still the trolls that go in the and throw everything on the floor, and those kids should be kicked in the nuts! just saying...
Far from true. The same way people get inside with sleeping bag they get out. They just either a) glitch a box inside the door/wall or B) remove the textures by simply changing 1 number on the game dll. Either way if you have oxide,essentials or magma its very easy to detect and ban the glitchers.
Okay, well changing the game files is different then just using the sleeping bag to glitch in. Now that's hacking. Oh and FYI, most hacking programs out there now have the option to remove everything but ceilings and doors. So more than likely they are not using the number 1 anymore.
Has it been confirmed anywhere that editing the texture files will trigger a VAC?
There's always a chance for that happening. Just don't be a tool and play the game Warm!!!
I have never exploited and never will. I am asking because I am tired of getting sleeping bagged on every server I play on.
