Yes I have given that a try without any success, I still spawn outside the building I will give it another go.

Anyone know if it’s possible to add spawn points for players to spawn in buildings? I have added building spawn points to the cfgplayerspawnpoints.xml but I always spawn outside them. Thx

DrZeddy, Looks good do you have an option to only retain backup files for X number of days? otherwise you could have months worth of backups bloating the server. Good work man, I am looking forward to having a look at this.

My experience running DayZ servers, if the server restarts regularly (say every 4 hours) it.s much less likely to crash and cause issues with the persistence files. Setup BEC and scheduled restarts on your server. RaDar..

Yes, have the backup script run 2 seconds after server restart. RaDaR...

This is the small snippet script to kill the server. @echo off TITLE DayZ Kill Server Script taskkill /im DayZServer_x64.exe running delage64.exe "c:\backup\*.*" 20 /recurse /rd Will delete all files, directories and sub directories older than 20 days this is purley for good houskeeping. Hope that helps RaDaR

Did not know that..... RaDaR

In the types.xml file change the following <type name="OffroadHatchback"> <nominal>0</nominal> <lifetime>3</lifetime> <restock>1800</restock> <min>0</min> <quantmin>-1</quantmin> <quantmax>-1</quantmax> <cost>100</cost> <flags count_in_cargo="0" count_in_hoarder="0" count_in_map="1" count_in_player="0" crafted="0" deloot="0"/> </type> to <type name="OffroadHatchback"> <nominal>0</nominal> <lifetime>3</lifetime> <restock>1800</restock> <min>0</min> <quantmin>-1</quantmin> <quantmax>-1</quantmax> <cost>100</cost> <flags count_in_cargo="0" count_in_hoarder="0" count_in_map="0" count_in_player="0" crafted="0" deloot="0"/> </type> You can also do the same with the doors wheels and trunk ect. Hope this helps RaDaR

I have had no issues restarting the server every 4 hours seems to have stopped it falling over as much if atall. RaDaR

This is my server backup script you can call 2 seconds after a restart in your BEC Scheduler.xml see below. @echo off for /f "delims=" %%a in ('wmic OS Get localdatetime ^| find "."') do set dt=%%a set YYYY=%dt:~0,4% set MM=%dt:~4,2% set DD=%dt:~6,2% set HH=%dt:~8,2% set Min=%dt:~10,2% set Sec=%dt:~12,2% set stamp=dayz_Server_Backup_%YYYY%%MM%%DD%@%HH%%Min% cd C:\backup mkdir %stamp% cd %stamp% xcopy c:\dayz\mpmissions\dayzOffline.chernarusplus\storage_1\*.* /s <job id='27'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>23:55:00</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 SERVER RESTARTING IN 5 MINUTES</cmd> </job> <job id='28'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>23:59:00</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 SERVER RESTARTING IN 1 MINUTE</cmd> </job> <job id='29'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>23:59:30</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 SERVER RESTARTING IN 30 SECONDS</cmd> </job> <job id='30'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>00:00:01</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>C:\scripts\kill-dayz.bat</cmd> </job> <job id='31'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>00:00:03</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>C:\scripts\backup.bat</cmd> </job> Then run this small delage64 script once a day this will limit your backups to only 20 days worth.

Here is my backup script you can run it run it directly after the server restart command in BEC Scheduler.xml @echo off for /f "delims=" %%a in ('wmic OS Get localdatetime ^| find "."') do set dt=%%a set YYYY=%dt:~0,4% set MM=%dt:~4,2% set DD=%dt:~6,2% set HH=%dt:~8,2% set Min=%dt:~10,2% set Sec=%dt:~12,2% set stamp=GOB_Server_Backup_%YYYY%%MM%%DD%@%HH%%Min% cd C:\backup mkdir %stamp% cd %stamp% xcopy c:\dayz\mpmissions\dayz.chernarusplus\*.* /s <job id='0'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>23:59:30</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 SERVER RESTARTING IN 30 SECONDS</cmd> </job> <job id='1'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>00:00:01</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>path to script\kill-dayz.bat</cmd> </job> <job id='2'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>00:00:03</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>path to script\backup.bat</cmd> </job> Radar...

Or you could do this in the Scheduler.xml <job id='21'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>23:55:00</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 SERVER RESTARTING IN 5 MINUTES</cmd> </job> <job id='22'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>23:59:00</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>say -1 SERVER RESTARTING IN 1 MINUTE</cmd> </job> <job id='23'> <day>1,2,3,4,5,6,7</day> <start>00:00:00</start> <runtime>000000</runtime> <loop>0</loop> <cmd>C:\scripts\kill-dayz.bat</cmd> </job> And this would be the kill script @echo off TITLE DayZ kill server script taskkill /im DayZServer_x64.exe If you dont see the Schedule output in the BEC console then you need to correct the Scheduler.xml syntax.

Same issue here.

Keybinds for lefty players, most of us use the arrow keys for move. Solution required?

Personally I don't find that surprising
