Signed up as well, looks like it could be a nice site once more people get on it.

Should ust be a flat rate of "x" seconds per round going into a larger clip/magazine. If it takes too long to be worth your time then you have no reason to bother using it. But for those who don't mind spending a little time taking better control of their ammunition, it would make for a great addition. If people can stick around thru being knocked unconsious, killed and re-supplying, and simply trekking thru the woods to get where they need to go, then whats another thing to wait for that helps everyone.

Doesn't matter how long it takes as long as you have the option. If your in a safe location you could choose to convert your ammo into the same mag to conserve space without dropping perfectly good rounds. If you are attacked while reloading during this time you would naturally drop soem rounds, thus destroying the half spent ammunition as it would then be loose rounds on the ground rather then a proper magazine. Therefore time spent to convert the rounds together, and the risk of losing them all if you suddenly get jumped by a walker.

The capabilitiy to convert ammo exists, four 2 round slug into one 8 round slug, as well as a sniper conversion which I can't recall off hand. Wouldn't matter too much even if the excess bullets were lost, having half empty magazines is rather annoying, especially since if you accidently reload, or switch weapons and lose your half spent mag out of the gun, you cannot easily reload that magazine without a lot of hassle dropping the empty mag and loading the rest into y9our bag to then pick up the half spent mag and load it.

If you want metal detectors why not give them a 0.18% to be on any Zed along the coast. That would translate to the random guy combing the beach for treasure. Don't let it be an item inside any buildings or lieing around anywhere, just on the random beachcomber who died doing what he loved.

You could use a bit of Clan information, I see your in the UK so I can only assume your running GMT +/-1 and running on a server in the EU. This sort of information as well as anything mentioning current membership estimation, as well as general goals as far as clan size would be helpful. Information is always good, give enough to get more people interested, but not so much as to give anyone and everyone your TS info to spy on operations.

Thats all a matter of how badly you want to keep your stuff. If it isn't worth the time it would take to crawl around, or to try and solicit medical assistance, then go ahead and suicide. Though if you do I recomend you at least try to run into some zombies rather then simply use the broken leg suicide, more satisfying.

Why not have it so that if you jump back on a server within the 10 or 15 minute period, it simply puts you right back where you were when you left. Then it changes ghosting to being essentially an alt+F4 putting you right back where you left the server at. If the hive knows where you were last, I'm fairly sure the server should as well.

I just put down Tent markers on DayzDB map and make note of what server it is on the marker itself. Also works to make Marker sets per server if you want.

No problem with that at all as long as your a true private hive. It is highly despised for people to PW a server on the Hive.

Whatever it is, sounds like fun to see.

On the subject of armor would be great to get at least a Flak Jacket of some kind and even Ballistic Masks. Have them take only a few rounds before degradign out of your inventory, with a %chance of knocking you unconscious from the impact.

To get fuel rare it sounds like you would need all jerry cans to be looted empty, with a limited supply of gas in each fuel stop until a server restarts. Maybe even limit it per week.

If you park your boat on the back side of the Island then it will only be spotted by Helicopter or people who already made it onto the Island. And there is no real way to hide from that.
