we have had a dedicated box before. i regret to say the funds just aren't there for one now. if or when our server gets a nice sized player base going that may or may not be willing to donate to support the server we might go that route.
dedicated is ideal in hosting i agree.

if you are facing the storage shed door the access point should be on the left side of the shed.

the newest patch allows us to use the gas stations, but in a realistic manner.
here is how
1. you need a 30 meter plot poll,generator,full jerry can
2. place your plot pole some were with in 30 meters of the gas pumps.
3. build your generator.
4. add fuel and start generator.
5. park you vehicle next to the pumps like you would in real life.
6. look and scroll at a gas pump. it will give you the option to fuel whatever
car you have at the pump.
now this takes time. not only does the plot pole and the generator are both 5 step processes the fueling process is the same action you do when fueling with a jerry can. so you might want to pay attention to your surroundings so you don't get shot while doing this.
epoch realism is made to slow your game play down and do actions and processes that you would in real life. -
after following this i think what mathewjkott is suggesting is the best.
to walk you threw it by typing out all the things you need to do would be difficult to understand.
remote access and being on the same voice comms explaining what is going on would be the best solution here.

the script i posted will restock all traders in real time you wont have to restart the server. for adding items to traders i need a little time to compile my thoughts on how i did that.
i ran into some problems with trader ids. be back to ya in a bit.

all righty then
this link is for you to take what they provide as a "clean up script" and use it in your query.
1. open your navi
2.open epoch
3.open query. this is listed were your tables, functions, views, events ect ect
4.when you open it you will see "New query" at the top of your window. click it
5. copy and past the script in your link to this page.
6. hit save. and name it what ever you want.
7.this should put it in your query page.
8. at the top of the page click the Run.
9. this will run your clean up query. your server has to be up and running for this to happen the simply restart it.
10. for this query to work you have to run it manualy. we do upon every server restart.
this is our clean up query.
DELETE FROM character_data WHERE Alive=0;DELETE FROM object_data WHERE Damage = 1;UPDATE `traders_data` SET qty=10 WHERE qty=0 AND afile<>'trade_any_vehicle' AND afile<>'trade_any_boat';hope this helps.

we had the same problem.
we simply added them to the traders. with a few other things while we were at it.

this will help you add items to traders.

yes razor you can build on a plot that isn't yours if you tag the other player as friendly.
however i have seen the tag function a bit buggy. most of the time both players need to log out of the server completely and come back in and it clears up and works.
what is the humanity of the 2 characters that are trying this mind games?
-
man first you need to make a back up of the data base before doing any changes. we all learned the hard way im sure.
if you could post the script line that was altered it would help a bunch.
this is an example of what ours looks like..
id item qty buy sell order tid afile
1492 ["ItemTankTrap",1] 1 [1,"ItemSilverBar10oz",1] [5,"ItemSilverBar",1] 0 145 trade_items1528 ["ItemTankTrap",1] 1 [1,"ItemSilverBar10oz",1] [5,"ItemSilverBar",1] 0 156 trade_itemslike i said post what he has in the tank traps line of code so we can see whats there. -
i understand what you are saying matt.
what i was trying to point out is that there are certain skins in dayz that give the toon a radio that is wearing that skin. i was pointing out that some to of the AI skins are those that have the radio with them.
sorry if i didn't make my post clear.
-
i like the way you think nox ;)
-
radios have been apart of dayz for a long time. i believe they have been on the ban list for most of the time.
a lot of skins have radios with them. i have not seen the AI and what they have for clothing. if its the takistani warlord and skins along those lines you will find a radio on them.
the radio from what i have heard (never confirmed it) is that if you are near a radio tower (green mountain) on the top of the hour you will hear a radio broadcast.

we have the same issue. seems that any object built that is empty for 7 days will despawn. ie camo nets, fences, gates, ect ect.
as far as i can tell and see we don't have a server setting for clear objects. we run a clean up script for vehicles but thats about it.
anybody have a lead on were to find any info on the objects despawning?
-
word to the wise. if you are running a dayz server from any provider. i would highly suggest backing up your data base frequently.
ours is backed up every 10 mins.
-
correct me if i am wrong but i believe its part of the realism. non buildings only last about a week. IE camo nets, fence,H barriers ect ect. the shacks, sheds, outhouse, are staying put and not despawning.
i believe there is a couple of pros to this.
1. doesn't allow a bunch of crap sitting all over the server.
2. keeps players busy by maintaining their camps.
to keep this from happening..... have no idea...... yet.
-
i like your ideas.
we have messed with the crafting system on our sand box server a bit.
ours followed more along the lines of modding the weapons you might already have.
example
m240+range finder= m240 scoped
svd+camo or ghilli suit= svd camo
m240+range finder+ camo cloths= mark 48 mod zero.
just a few examples we were working on.
