Server ID

[FishGuts4Lunch 66]

Is there any way to see the ID of the server when I am in game? Once you log out the complete server list pop up at you but as far as I can see there is no highlight of the server just played. This woould be useful for reporting admin abuse as well!

Current server info is stored in these files:

Steam\userdata\128860400\7\remote\serverbrowser_hist.vdf

Users\<username>\DayZ Other Profiles\<Profilename>\<Profilename>.DayZProfile

 

Both are text documents so are openable with any text editor. The .vdf file will have the current server in the first slot. The .DayZProfile you'll have to search near the bottom for the 'lastMPServer=...' info.

 

There is currently no way to view this information in-game while playing.

 

NOTE: To report a server use the instructions here: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/158966-dayz-standalone-server-hosting-rules-server-reporting/.

Reporting a server via these forums will not get the report actioned as our beloved Mods don't have any power to regulate the servers. Send the details, IP and Port number to the relevant Top Tier provider. Usually take a few hours for these to be actioned, but if they are indeed infracting the rules, action will be definitely taken against them.

 

Hope this helps.

Excellent! I found it and indeed it does help albeit in a roundabout way

Thank you
