Can ps4 private server owners get more informed on stuff for modding? Or if there are future plans to give us access to init.c file? I would really like to have some sort of command option in game. You said you would continue to support the modding community, I really would like some clarification because PS4 can't mod xbox could I believe if you talked to microsoft. For the PS4 COMMUNITY we have to edit .xml just to spend hours to decrease or increas certain things just to possibly find out you made 1 error somewhere and now you either need to back up or reset mission folder or if you messed up bad do a reinstall. Also why does it take 30hrs for edits on some files to show up or if you wanna notice right away reinstall the game. When people build life's on a server they don't want to spend a week on a base just to have it go out the door because we can't get mods. Private server owners should have a option to chose if loot should refresh after every restart or based off hive server settings. For the love of god a ADMIN TOOL ADMIN MENU for INGAME use not pulling out your laptop I should be able to pause my game go into a settings tab and have options to kick, ban, restart, shutdown, and make it to where that menu could connect to your server. Also server owners have access to give admin access would these other admins be able to use this menu.
Why for the love of god can't we just have the ability to just spawn things in? It would cut out a lot ram and cpu usage on private servers if this was possible considering you wouldn't have to go and increase stuff 5X and spend hours editing just to see your work fail. Bringing a menu to spawn items, teleport, server command, view what's happening (like the log files), and god mode so if we have cheaters we can deal with them this is probably the most asked for option in dayz for the console community I don't work for you but if I did I could easily tell you private server owners would pay more there would be more people bigger player base dayz could get out of this rut it's in but instead let's add items and bug fixes (not mad about the bug fixes their great!) But what I am upset about is the non clarification on how you'd support the console private server "modding" community it was literally one sentence that you mentioned it all the way back in January I wouldn't expect to have anything yet but an update on how your planning to support us. Fallout 76 for example is coming out with private worlds these private worlds will allow the private worlds owner to change things edit things and from what I heard mods.
Just quit stalling talk to sony and microsoft see if you can't strike a deal to allow mod support for your game console is capable of modding yes but only if the game has mod support that is within the companys guide lines it would be fine again so much could be done to make it better for console owners but if I had to choose a highly asked for feature it would be to have a admin menu so that way we would have FULL CONTROL over stuff.
Sorry in advance that this post is just to rant but I love the game editing the files has taught a little about programming I didn't know how to program or well edit .xml until I played dayz I played official for like a month a week in I was sick of cheaters, greifers, dupers, and most hated cannibal groups there are way to many of those. So I got a private server and learned console can't have mods but we had access to the mission folders ect. You guys have been doing wonderful and I'm amazed and excited by every experimental update that comes out I read the patch notes and get so excited but all I ask is more clarification on support for "modders" in the console community and I know this is a long shot............
ADMIN CONTROLS IN GAME PLEASE I would pay money for this option like get this admin control as a upgrade to the server idk but please ADMIN CONTROLS IN GAME PLEASE I'm begging you at this point.
