Would I be correct in thinking that the new vehicle spawn system will not work on other maps than Chernarus until we create entries for the vehicles_location table?

Ah, so it's not indicative of a coming feature update to epoch. Bummer! I might dig in and see how hard it would be to add traders to 1.8.5 then. Thanks for all the work you've done on this, by the way.

Just curious - wondering if either some of Epoch's features would make it into Vanilla (at this point, that'd mostly just be traders) or if Vanilla's many awesome features would make it into Epoch. Looks like Razor added the entire Assets directory in December 2014 without a commit comment, and hasn't changed it since. I wonder what the deal is with it.

What's this directory: https://github.com/DayZMod/DayZ/tree/Development/Assets/dayz_epoch

I'm waiting to rejoin after the third rollback today. Yesterday, you did one rollback that went to eight hours previously. Consider a whitelist.

Vilayer user here. My server spawned 4 ATVs, 14 bicycles, 2 skodas, 3 motorcycles, 7 UAZs, and 2 choppers. I managed to find 1 chopper (crashed it a week ago and it has not respawned), 4 UAZs, a skoda, a motorcycle, and 2 bikes. All were at spawn points shown at dayzdb. I've been looking everywhere for the other chopper, but haven't found it. I've checked all the spawn points from the wiki. I'd really appreciate it if you'd confirm that the vehicles you've found showed up at the official spawns. I plan to use the clean up script as soon as it's available. Is there an ETA on that?

Have you confirmed from your logs that they aren't spawning?

So let me see if I get this straight: we're going to force you to play with cheaters, because otherwise you might cheat. That's basically what you're saying. That makes awesome sense. Some of the people who want to password protect a server want to set up a white list and play with their friends. No malicious intent at all. Some other people might cheat. So according to you, because some people might cheat, we're going to deny everyone else the chance to play the game in peace. Oh, and vilayer's suggestion is that you just ban everyone who connects - so you can still farm gear, so your entire argument is moot.

What host are you using? For me it's in the /vilayer/chenarus directory. If you have FTP access then just search for it. filezilla has a search option.

ARMA2OASERVER.RPT will tell you that a vehicle has spawned, and if a vehicle is saved it will tell you the location. However, it wont tell you the location where the vehicle spawned. The location of that log file and how you read it depends on your hosting environment. The hive is just a mysql database. If your host is running a private hive then you can see the location of everything by looking in that database, but I'm not sure they would allow you to do that.

Have you confirmed this by looking at your logs?

To see if a particular vehicle has spawned on your vilayer server, check the file: /vilayerChernarus/arma2oaserver.rpt grep for "Spawned" No trucks at all have spawned on my server, but 15 bikes have spawned - lol. When I have time, I'm going to investigate destroying one of the bikes with a grenade or something to see if I can get a different vehicle to spawn. Another thing I'm going to investigate is editing vehicles.bat and setting the number of vehicles to zero, then back to 30 to see if I get new spawns.

My logs don't show that. That's not happening for me. I found the chopper in the hanger at NE airfield. Put some fuel in it and flew it to the fuel point on the other side of the field. This will be the last place that anyone got in/out of it. I fueled it up, then flew toward devil's castle. But since I'm a noob and this is the first time I've flown a chopper, I crashed into the trees. That was sunday. The chopper is not at its crash site and it's not in the hangar or at the fuel point where I got in/out of it. I shut down the server when I'm not on it. Nobody else has found it and moved it. It's simply not at those locations. So I can't save it. It's not there. I haven't searched the other possible spawn points.

ARMA2OASERVER.RPT For me, it shows it spawning 4 ATVs, 14 bikes, 2 Skodas, 3 motorcycles, and 7 UAZs. It spawned the chopper at the NE airfield but I crashed it :-) The crash site is gone and I haven't seen it respawn yet. I'd really like to drop a grenade on one of the UAZs and see if I can get a truck of some kind.

Is that only for the helicopter is or is that for all vehicles? Is there a way to really destroy a vehicle so that a different one spawns? For example, I notice from my logs that there are no trucks on my server. Is there a way for me to destroy one of the bikes or ATVs so that it wouldn't respawn, but maybe a truck would spawn instead?
