Did you park it on/near your base?( near enough to very quickly go to and from?) because Arma turns vehicles North and then to their designated direction ( for example south ) so if you have anything in the way it could have blown it up.

im new to this game so i dident know that was a problem =(

@MobY park the chopper facing north to avoid having it blow up when the server restarts and spawns back in.

is it allowed to park in the free zone?

I don't know, I should imagine it is fine temporarily. Check the XM8 in game by selecting 'server info' on the tablet I think it's called. Just to be safe don't leave it there for too long. I've seen vehicles blow up on other server for being in trade zones for too long.

Parking in safe zone will cause your vehicle to be automatically unlocked when server restarts!  

This is to prevent everyone from parking their vehicles there all the time

Does this not contradict the no stealing in trade zone rules?

I Would say it does and i wouldnt risk taking a vehicle from there even if it is unlocked. Maybe there could be a rule that vehicles can not be left for longer than x amount of time in the safe zone or like on other exile servers after a restart vehicles are teleported to outside of the safe zone boundaries

@blaze1981 that sounds like a good idea other servers I've seen have it set so a certain amount of time (maybe 12 hours) of a vehicle being left in a trade zone results in it exploding at the next restart. This would avoide people abusing it, however it does cause other vehicle to blow up as well if they're near, so teleporting vehicles outside the trade zone sounds safer!

yea either way is good with me i just feel that safe zone boundaries shouldnt be abused as exile is a high risk game and leaving vehicles constantly in a safe zone goes against what the game is about , so i am all for a solution to prevent it
