[Is there an incentive to build?]

LOL so many ideas that keep revolving around the way or time before a base item is deleted. Just make it selectable by the server owner like every other clean up script. Again.... Daimyos basebuilding is set up that all objects are updated when the base owner uses his keypad gate to his base. Once used, all objects built within xxx radius is updated in the database with a new date. This allows server owners to see which bases are not being used any more and can be deleted. I'm very surprised that Epoch is not using this in the database. I am wasting soooooooo much time matching up player id's to objects then searching for player last login dates to clean my database. Not to mention the new 4 digit id's are attached to character id's which I delete dead players after awhile which then leaves me with items all over the map which I have absolutely no way to identify the owners of. Am I missing another way to do this or is the epoch system meant to clutter the map?

lol epoch just hates you. No really, its made that way, very pointless, In fact. Contact dem admeens if you want change.

[Is there an incentive to build?]

I would really hate this automatic approach. That would mean that my buildings are gone when I return from a business trip or family vacation.

 

Tuning the timer parameter upwards won't do much good, either - some vacations are 4 weeks long and too high a setting will clutter the server too severely.

 

Any solution is fine with me as long as there is a dependable minimum of buildings that are not touched at all. Anyway, the server administrator would be able to selectively remove the player bound tags just as well as he could with owned vehicles.

I wholeheartedly agree, especially the whole few buildings protected thing

[Is there an incentive to build?]

Maybe make the settings options for the server owners? Like, maybe an owner just wants everything unremovable until the owners of the buildings or admins decide to remove it, It should be a option instead of one way over the other. Customization is what will make this mod thrive.

[Garage ?]

Sounds like Origins... although, if you could make garages openable via a PIN (preferably a 6 digit code, and Maybe increase safe digits too) then we could have the same kinda deal, but with garages. It'd be nice, because we'd be able t keep our cars as Well as our guns.

[Server Questions]

Hi, I was thinking about starting an Epoch server but I have a few questions, which I'd be really grateful if someone answered.

Can I unsync it from the Epoch "hive"", so people can't bring their stuff?

Can people hack metals into the game, and is there a way to detect this ill-gotten goods so I can ban hackers?

Can DayZ Epoch run with DayZ Civilian?
