[INFO] DZE Configs & Variables / Init

[Zupa]

This Topic will give you all default options you can change in your init.sqf/variables.sqf to personalize your server without putting any script in.

 

 

If I made any mistakes, please clearify and I will change it!

 

 

Simple add the line in the top half of your init.sqf to change values (unless stated otherwise)

 

 

Selfbloodbag

DZE_SelfTransfuse = false; // default value

TRUE: Allows player to right click on a bloodbag to use a bloodbag on himself.

 

 

Selfbloodbag values

DZE_selfTransfuse_Values = [12000, 15, 300]; // default value

If  DZE_SelfTransfuse is set to true, this will define the value of that bloodbag,

1st value is the ammount of blood you get from the bag;

2nd value is the infection chance in %

3th value is the cooldown in seconds

 

 

 Max Animals

dayz_maxAnimals = 5;

Amount of animals per player. They will despawn like zombies if no one is there.

 

 

timezoneswitch

timezoneswitch = 0; 

Changes the murdermenu times with this offset in hours.

 

 

Zombie settings

dayz_maxLocalZombies = 40;

Max number of zombies spawned per player.

 

dayz_maxGlobalZombiesInit = 40;

Starting global max zombie count, this will increase for each player within 400m (Default: 40)

 

dayz_maxGlobalZombiesIncrease = 10;

This is the amount of global zombie limit increase per player within 400m (Default: 10)

 

dayz_maxZeds = 500;

Total zombie server limit 

dayz_zedSpawnVehCount = dayz_maxLocalZombies / 2;

DayZ Epoch Debug For Servers

DZEdebug = false;

If set to true, the server RPT file will have alot more info on what happends on the server. ( For debugging).

 

Wiki explenation:

 

 

true will enable debug so that road debris and new vehicle spawns are visible via map markers. Also debug will enable "Save to arma.RPT" that allows access of a tool to obtain lootpos information for buildings used for adding support for additional maps. (Default: false)

 

 

DZE debug damage

Dont really know, i guess that nothing gets damage when Debug = true?

Position

dayz_minpos = -20000;
dayz_maxpos = 20000;

The max and min distance from center of the map where a player can logout and still spawn on the same position when loggin in. Does this also affect the radiation you get when passing these places ( I dont think so)?

DZE_BuildingLimit = 150;

Ammount of builables allowed in this distance.

DZE_BuildOnRoads = false;

1st value is the radius of a plotpole

2nd value is the radius where the next plot can be build.

DZE_maintainRange = ((DZE_PlotPole select 0)+20);

Is that in the dayz_code pbo?

 

No, the mission PBO:

[bustedparts]

Thanks

[Guest]

Very nice, thanks.. A few Additions:

 

DZE_CleanNull = false;

Clean Objects, that have "objNull" id. Normally Objects like this are skipped in server_updateObject.sqf, also this is no longer supported and should not be in that file anymore, therefore it can be removed out of the variables.sqf

dayz_spawnAirCount = 0;

Was used to count outstanding airdrops, for the "supply_drop.sqf" Module. This is no longer needed, nor supported.


 

dayz_minpos = -20000;
dayz_maxpos = 20000;

This is used to determine the Debug Area, i.e. Radiation, sudden Death, Admin Fun etc. It is the smallest location (XY) you can be, without being in Debug Zone (This would be top left corner) and the Maximum (Bottom Right Corner). You can be anywhere within that area without getting Radiation.


 

DZE_AntiWallLimit = 3;

This is the Number of try's you have to get out of your car, before you'll be punished. If you park near a Wall and try to get out, this will count 1 and put you back in the Vehicle. This resets, if you successfully got out, but it does not reset, if you got pushed back in and then continue driving. This is to prevent player bugging trough walls. PS: If there is no room in the vehicle, the Player will get "crushed", which can lead to death, but does not always.

None of these work for me. Is it because my init.sqf file looks like this? When i say looks like this i mean do i have the wrong init file?

 

http://i.gyazo.com/17789c5db6f2a8ffe8612d50fba59be9.png

[Gr8]

add all the variables under 

//Epoch Config

[dawaune15]

 

add all the variables under 

//Epoch Config

Thats what i did. i tried about 4 different times under the same spot and nothing happens

[megaz]

You could add a new compile line under the // DayZ Epoch config and make a new folder in your mission folder call it what you want (or if you have a custom folder or scripts folder) you will need to change the path of sample below: and then just add a .sqf file with all the variables in. Keeps the init cleaner.

section like so:

 

//Epoch Config Variables
call compile preprocessFileLineNumbers "config\epochconfig.sqf";

 

below is my custom config file for example

below is my custom config file for example

I tried that too. imma try to get a video up and show you guys what im talking about and to point out to me if im doing something wrong

[dawaune15]

Well here is what i did. Im pretty sure im doing this right, if im not im going to feel like a complete dumbass

 

https://youtu.be/-TAeEwBGTWo

[SmokeyBR]

hehe i answered same thing yesterday

 

u already have a file doing your epoch configs, which is in the bottom and is overwriting megaz epochconfig and your init

erase what megaz told you

 

and go to options/epochconfig.sqf

and make your changes there

 

edit:just realized it has been a while u posted by now i hope you figured it out

[machiventa]

I find some in the server_fonction.sqf

DZE_DiagFpsSlow = false;

DZE_DiagFpsFast = false;

DZE_DiagVerbose = false;

I dont know what they are

[FG_Trap]

Dont know if these were missed by me but 

enableenvironment false;

dayz_maxMaxWeaponHolders = 250;

enableCamShake false;

enableRadio false;

enableSentences false;
