So, after some time, I can deduce that nothing has worked, I still have this problem. One thing of note is that I can now use ZomBerry's admin tools to spawn a right side door for the ADA. However, whenever I restart the server, the right side doors on all in-game ADAs disappear. And I have not been able to find any loose right side doors spawning in as free loot in the world.

It did, absolutely. 🙂 But I think you mean the document cfgspawnabletypes, because cfgeventspawns only has the coordinates for all the spawnpoints on the map.

Alright, I have changed the types lines as suggested and have now been destroying ADAs just to have them respawn to see if they spawn with the right side door anywhere. It will most likely take time so I will get back to you when I get a conclusive result. (Curiously though, right beneath the hatchback entry in the types document, we have the "Hatchback_02" which is still set to 0 in both nominal and min which it always has been and the Gunter is still spawning in as usual)

Alright, so today I had the time to do a little testing. I did as you said, drgullen, I removed the storage_1 folder to a safe location, started the server and then logged in. Completely new character and a fresh start. Ok, great. Let's find some ADAs. Litterally the first ADA spawnpoint I found had an ADA and did it have the right side door? ... yes, it did! But, this to me is confusing because the mod was stilla active. I even tried putting down a fence inside a house wall just to make sure that the mod was running and it was. Exited, closed the server, removed the new storage_1 folder and replaced it with the original one. Started up the server again and relogged. Back in my old guy, I found two ADAs, both missing right side doors. Didn't really have time to check if any doors spawn as separate items around the map, but I am assuming they don't. What conclusion do you draw from this, drgullen?

Do I delete the new folder when I put back the copy-pasted original or should I just merge the folders basically?

Interesting, what happened after that? Like, could you add more and it just got really laggy, or did the game prevent you from adding more people entirely? And about ports in general, is it like one port per player that connects or can multiple people connect through the same port?

Ok, I'm going to try it when I have the time and will get back to you. 🙂 I was just afraid of losing my base building progress if I tampered with the storage folder. Just so I understand correctly... I copy-paste the Storage_1 folder somewhere else, then I remove the original source, start the server and enter the game. Then I exit the game and just move the copied folder back to it's original location and reboot server and game again? Exactly, so that's why I can't connect to the server. It's just how it is, client is looking for the mod but can't find it because I deactivated it, and that's because I already positioned walls in game that need the mod to work.

I wanna thank you. After you tipped me off I got a buddy to check if he could find my server in communities off-site and he could. Just one question, if you use the same server pc to play on at the same time, how many players can play on a server pc before the system starts to lag beyond efficiency? And I know it's most likely down to system specs. Here are mine: CONNECTION: 300 Mbit/s down - 10 Mbit/s up CPU: Intel Core i7-6700 Skylake 3.40 Ghz GPU: ASUS GeForce GTX 1070 TURBO 8Gb Memory RAM: Crucial DDR4 2133Mhz 4Gb x4 (16Gb)

If I try this, would I be able to copy the storage_1 folder and paste it back into the game after the persistance wipe and in effect reintegrate what I have accomplished so far? Btw, this (image) is what I meant about me not being able to access my server if the mod is not installed. The mod acts as a dependency because with it you can build base walls litterally anywhere and without the mod, the game refuses to load because the base walls that have been built are being rejected by the game's programming.

Yes, it is on my LAN. Oh really? 😮 It doesn't show up for you in the communities either? Do you run the game on the same pc you use to play on? Because I have mine running locally on the same rig that I am playing on. Do you have the same setup? I have mainly watched a bunch of youtube videos about porting forward in dayZ where they have checked in game to see their server showing up in the communities tab and I much assumed that it would work for me in the same way. But they might have run it on a separate pc, come to think of it. You mean the whole "steamQueryPort = 2305; // defines Steam query port, should fix the issue with server not being visible in client server browser" -thing that is an extra parameter you can add in the serverDZ file? Because, yeah, I tried that too but it had no effect.

Damn it. I got ahold of my ISP and they said they aren't blocking anything on their end that relates to the specific ports. Still, nothing works.

Ok. Yeah, those are open. There isn't anything you are supposed to do in the server files? Like, change lines of text anywhere or something?

Do you mean the Windows firewall? On the computer that the server is located on?

Wait... how do I port forward "in the server"? I have only ported forward in the router settings.

So are you saying this page is incorrect? https://portforward.com/dayz/ Ok, so the ports 2302 and 27016... I port forward them and them only.... no TCP, just as UDP... that should be enough?
