Update: Still trying to sort out network issues. Queryport is 2305 due to this line in serverDZ.cfg: "steamQueryPort = 2305; // defines Steam query port, should fix the issue with server not being visible in client server browser" Don't know where I copied that from, but it obviously didn't fix the issue in my case. Troubleshooting continues. I think I understand 98% of your code. Texthandling looks more complicated than most languages I've encountered, but in retrospect, I should've known that. Will test it once I have some other issues sorted, it's much appreciated. Had some issues with the 'profiles' parameter. Started 1st time without defining the par and then I couldn't boot the server with the new folder I created. Turns out I had put the parameter in "" because I mixed up the usecases, problem solved. The quickbar part will be very useful to me. Never figured out how to log in as admin. I need to suicide when testing respawn, so it'll save some time. Spent a good few hours making a new start-zone in DayZ Editor only for it to crash when I was about to save. Might take the night off. - indij

Thanks for you time, I appreciate it. 1. I don't know why 2305 is set as queryport and not 27015/27016, but I will try to look at the configs and check my connections with TCPView. (Funny. I've been using Process Explorer for years, but never knew about TCPView. Both are sysinternals) I'll also read up on hairpinning and try to configure my router if possible. ISP NAT *shouldn't* be the problem in this case. 2. I do indeed mean the pbo's in the addons folder. Thanks for explaining, makes much more sense to me now. I will try to copy the folders manually and configure the start.bat accordingly. 3. Perfection! That's exactly what I meant. My aim is to let playes spawn with gear according to rank earned with one of 3 'NPC' factions. After looking at the 'dogtags' mod, I've come to realize that init does more than I thought, so I see what you mean about the file getting bloated. It also seems that my solution could be improved somewhat. Lots to learn, work to do. Thanks again. The troubleshooting will continue. - indij
