What does this setting do?

Through bugs, crashes or deliberate tricks, items and vehicles sometimes end up outside the actual play area. With this on, the server clears them at restart.

That is not merely tidiness; it prevents abuse: a stash outside the map would be unreachable for other players and therefore a perfect, unraidable hiding place.

Especially important if you use a custom map area — everything that used to be inside may suddenly be outside.

Which value suits my server?

Relaxed PvE

On.

Classic PvP

On.

Hardcore

What to watch out for

Dangerous together with a custom map area

Shrink the map and existing bases and vehicles may fall outside — and be deleted at the next restart. Announce it first and check your boundaries.
