Dogeggz 0 Posted July 16, 2019 Hi all, me and a friend are considering starting our own dayz server, we want a vanilla server that has no or very limited nighttime, any advice on a decent European host and how to configure the day/night cycle would be gratefully appreciated. Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In this file there are these lines, serverTimeAcceleration=12; you can change value 0 - 24. For example if you put 24 as the value, entire day would pass in one hour. Next line, serverNightTimeAcceleration=1; you can change value 0.1-64. More value = faster night time. Also remember, serverNightTimeAcceleration value also multiplied by serverTimeAcceleration value. For example let's take, serverTimeAcceleration=10 and serverNightTimeAcceleration=5 so in this case server night time would move 50 times faster than normal day time.

There is free tier with $300 credits. you can use it for like 2 or 3 months for free (CPU 2.4GHz, RAM 8GB, Windows Server 2016 OS). But you will need a credit or debit card to activate free tier. You can select server location when you setup the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
