gvt83pL 0 Posted November 24, 2014 Hey. I just bought a own dayz server. Since i cant set a password or anything else there are many players on it and everything is looted, but even after 24 hours the loot dont respawn, is there any kind of new system for the loot spawn?

kichilron 8550 Posted November 24, 2014 Hello and welcome to the Forum, it is not recommended to have the Server running for 24 hours. Usually the respawn-cycle is about 2-3 hours, as this resets the loot and Zombies, if persistence is disabled. If you want to password your server you will have to get yourself a private shard - you can whitelist and password those without problem 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bought it from gameservers.com how i see if persistence is disabled? What is different between enabled and disabled? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kichilron 8550 Posted November 24, 2014 It is not recommended because of the problems you described above. A server needs restarts - especially at this very early stage of it being an Alpha. It's as simple as that. You will have an option in your server-configuration to enable or disable persistence. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karmaterror 982 Posted November 24, 2014 (edited) Hey. Thanks! Why its not recommended? I bought it from gameservers.com how i see if persistence is disabled? What is different between enabled and disabled? Jus to answer the 2nd bit....if persistence is enabled then loot/tents/backpacks placed on the floor will all "persist" when the server restarts and be exactly where they were when it boots up again. With persistence off then all things like tents, and loot will reset when the server restarts :) Edited November 24, 2014 by Karmaterror Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ValentinBk (DayZ) 60 Posted November 24, 2014 Don't want to start a new thread over this, but how does loot respawn works in persistent servers? Lets say I find a repeater in Berezino and survive with it for a month, will the repeater\weapon in a similar category not respawn until I die? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
