Non-Militarized, No Admin Abuse Overpoch

[RIPRnet Admin 0]

No remaining DayZ Mod server fit my group's play style, so this memorial weekend I bit the bullet and learned how to set up an Overpoch server. I do not have the time to "babysit," so I settled on a playstyle and rule list for the server that is easy to admin, and that I think makes this server literally different (better?) then any existing server.

    Overpoch guns, but no AS50, m107, cheytac, or thermals.
    Coins, most vehicles can tow/lift except bikes, vector snap, plot management, radiogroup, AI missions.
    Destructible wood and doors, but cinder and metal floors indestructible.
    No militarized ground vehicles better then a minigun SUV and 50cal Humvee.
    No militarized air vehicles with rockets or explosives.
    Most building supplies come from Ikea events- they're very expensive in Stary, cheaper at wholesalers, but key items like metal floors only come from events.

This setup keeps any one squad from having an overpowering advantage over anyone from gear/armor alone. A more mobile force of fresh spawns can overwhelm bolt action snipers. A M2 scumvee has weak wheels, an armored SUV has an exposed turret. Everything is a trade off. Most combat happens around key missions: IKEA for building, especially. Scarity of building supplies draws people into interacting- it also prevents massive skybases and sniper fap towers. (Anyone who's seen CCG or Deadcell knows that I mean.) Bases can be raided but not wiped out, encouraging "endgame" group play.

As to the admin philosophy in the title: * No hacking, no glitching, no duping. Anything else is fine. Camping Stary? Sure, allowed. You're laying in a static position that can be overlooked by 3 hills, and players in god mode can look for you, step out, and blast you. You're gonna have a bad time. Talking shit in server chat? As long as it's not VON, sure. VON will autokick you. It's a game. If someone is doing something you don't like, find a way to beat them. Play smarter, don't go running to an admin. Because honestly, no one has the time for that.

And finally, money isn't an issue. I'm adult, it's why I don't time to sit on the server and babysit. So I'm not selling perks, above the table or under it. And there is no other admin to abuse the players, or have any of the drama that dooms servers to go down.
