Following the DayZ 1.30 update, two different players on our community servers have independently reported serious issues when dismantling vanilla watchtower floors.

Incident 1 - Player report from Deer Isle

The player gets disconnected from the server every time they finish dismantling a vanilla watchtower floor. When the dismantling progress completes and the floor and nails drop, a red network connection icon appears before the player is kicked from the game. The player confirmed that dismantling walls on the same tower does not cause this issue.

Incident 2 - Player report from Nasdara

Another player reported that dismantling a single vanilla watchtower floor caused five watchtowers and several connected vanilla walls to collapse simultaneously. The structures dropped logs, but no nails or planks were returned. The player reported losing approximately 590 nails and 120 planks.

Both incidents were reported after patch 1 update for 1.30 on oct 21. Unsure if we got similar reports before oct 21.

1. Build a vanilla watchtower and connect it to other vanilla structures, such as additional watchtowers or walls.

2. Start dismantling a floor section of the vanilla watchtower.

3. Complete the dismantling action.

4. Observe whether connected structures collapse unexpectedly or whether the player experiences a network disconnection.

Additional observation: One player reported being disconnected even when dismantling a floor on a tower where dismantling walls worked normally.

Note: These steps are based on player reports. The issue has not yet been independently reproduced by the server administrators.
