LordWolfBreeder Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 it doubles/ at least adds 10 min every time you re-attempt. starts off at 15, jumps from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's say I have to upload 800 ing I can hold 400 in my inventory at one time and I have the other two stacks in my argys inventory I have to wait 15 min for the first two stacks upload them grab the other two stacks now I have to wait 25 min to upload them. Sorry I'm just trying to understand this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator invincibleqc Posted September 2, 2017 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted September 2, 2017 From what I understood, the time is the timeleft until next server save. So basically, all the items you transfer from remote inventory to your character one can only be uploaded on the next server save (to ensure items are either saved or uploaded but not both in case of rollback due to crash).

Dinos, unlike stacks, have an unique ID so they gets deleted if duped (even the original ones, I once was transferring 20 rexes from SE to island, and somehow while downloading them I ended with 21, then on next reboot 2 of them got deleted).

Gribish Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 Ok so people can still dupe only in smaller amounts now so that means more roll backs. Thanks for the info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracul Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 the upload timers kinda weird, on ps4 I was uploading some items , went back to my storage box to get more stuff and everything in my inventory was on a 40 min cooldown. Waited it out, started uploading. Discovered that if the stack size changes it can put them on cooldown too, such was the case when I touble tapped X too quickly which uploaded ONE narco and put the other 99 on a 40 minute cooldown, spoiling berries also put themselves on a cooldown (though spoiling while on cooldown didnt extend the time).

Sorry I'm just trying to understand this. Basically yeah. you have 400wt of stuff in your inventory. you go to upload, have to wait min 15min. u upload and then turn to grab more items from any other inventory and now that time has doubled. so now you are waiting 25min to upload that second load. But its still unconfirmed. 21 hours ago, invincibleqc said: From what I understood, the time is the timeleft until next server save.

Invincibliqc may be correct though. just logged in to server, items in my inventory could be instantly uploaded since I went to sleep with them, but the timer for any other inventory was at 30 some odd minutes. 21 hours ago, Gribish said: Is it the same thing for dinos thankfully it is not the same for Dinos. they can upload at any time as long as they aren't in their 12hr cooldown after just being brought to a server. but their saddle will have a timer the moment you take it off of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people are also under the assumption you can't transfer with items that spoil. You can, it's just harder. First like I say above the timer is GLOBAL on your server. It is whether your items were in that state when the last save came along, that means stack size, location, etc. This also includes ammo in items. To do this with items that spoil, you will be best to use an oby, first have a fridge/preserving bin at one of them keep the items in the bin. Look at your timer by accessing the obi (if no items have a timer, grab a new one and check) It will range between 1 second and 30minutes. Let's say you're transferring milk, you get it with salts in your ptera, fly it back to the obi, put it in your preserving bin and it has just under 1 hour left on it. You look at the obi and your items have a 20minute timer on them. You wait 19 minutes and then get your milk out (with some salts for added protection). That milk also only has a 1 minute timer on it until you can transfer with it. You wait 1 minute and then transfer with your wyvern milk. If it's still not to liking of those that actually haven't tried this and pretend to know what they're talking about let me know I'll make a video proving it for you on official. Of course it will be with meat or berries not milk but same story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened to a tribe mate of mine aswell. He tried to send those oil of mine through The island server and every time he uploaded, only 1 quantity was uploaded from the whole stack and the rest had a 40min cooldown timer on it. The uploading system is broken, duping is back/not fixed... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done this several times actually for different Dinos. no timers. However, we tamed a level 15 Carno the other day near Green OB, very close, walked him to Green OB to transfer and had to wait longer (15 Minutes) to transfer him than it did to tame it.

If you wait til right before the timer to aquire the milk then yes. ie.. check obi timer and give yourself enough time to trap and milk wyvern and have the milk on your inventory when timer expired(with salt of course). then upload.

Mauri95 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 As people already said, it's the timer until next server save, as for dinos it works the same way except for recently transferred dinos which have a 12 hours cooldownPosted from my SM-G935F using ARK: Survival Evolved Community App Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it needs to be in your inventory for a server save, in that state. So if you shoot an arrow or eat a piece of meat, those items will have a timer and others won't. That's why you get the variance in length and presence of timer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebulationlee Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Any news on this being removed? The game is only half of what it was for me because of this. This makes using foreign servers for farming materials really impractical, as well as going in escapades into other servers really impractical. Game is less of an adventure with it.

rawsh Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 uploading feels completely broken, why dont they just get it over with and remove the feature already, it obviously failed, unless the goal was to raptor people over in the great migration worked like a charm for that....

Zeropointzeroonepercent Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 So you have to hold the items in your inventory for 15 minutes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You have to hold the items in your inventory until the next server save. That way items cannot be duplicated. I've logged out with items in my inventory that were fine to upload as soon as I logged back in 20 or 30 minutes later. I've also added items during that time to my inventory which got a timer on them while the items in my inventory still did not have a timer on them. I've also added items that have had 31 minutes timer and I've added items that have had a 4 minute timer. They do that so you can transfer everything within yourself if you want to a different server when the timer elapses or you can upload stuff to the obselik so that if the server you arrive on experiences a rollback you don't lose that stuff (which has happened to a few people who would come to trade on my old legacy server). It's a bit of a pain but I personally experience less roll backs in general which were all too common on legacy due to duping. ( I am not saying duping is solved, I am saying it is more time consuming and since so many people are even too lazy to go that route it has decreased in number) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
