Need Help with Vehicle Spawning

[Droopy Jo 0]

Hello Everyone.

My partner and I have been trying to code our own server on DayZ for the last week. We are making good progress but absolutely can not get our vehicles to spawn in. We had them working for a minute and apparently messed something up because we can not get the Truck or Ada to spawn in again. Any help would be appreciated. Will post our coding for people to look at.

Ada

<event name="VehicleOffroadHatchback">
        <nominal>65</nominal>
        <min>50</min>
        <max>80</max>
        <lifetime>300</lifetime>
        <restock>0</restock>
        <saferadius>500</saferadius>
        <distanceradius>500</distanceradius>
        <cleanupradius>200</cleanupradius>
        <flags deletable="0" init_random="0" remove_damaged="1"/>
        <position>fixed</position>
        <limit>mixed</limit>
        <active>1</active>
        <children>
            <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="30" min="20" type="OffroadHatchback"/>
            <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="30" min="20" type="OffroadHatchback_Blue"/>
            <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="30" min="10" type="OffroadHatchback_White"/>
        </children>
    </event>

 

Truck

 <event name="VehicleTruck01">
        <nominal>65</nominal>
        <min>50</min>
        <max>80</max>
        <lifetime>300</lifetime>
        <restock>0</restock>
        <saferadius>500</saferadius>
        <distanceradius>500</distanceradius>
        <cleanupradius>200</cleanupradius>
        <flags deletable="0" init_random="0" remove_damaged="1"/>
        <position>fixed</position>
        <limit>mixed</limit>
        <active>1</active>
        <children>
            <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="30" min="20" type="Truck_01_Covered"/>
            <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="30" min="20" type="Truck_01_Covered_Blue"/>
            <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="30" min="20" type="Truck_01_Covered_Orange"/>
        </children>
    </event>

Do you actually want a total of 130 cars and trucks?  Your cfgeventspawns.xml would have to have at least that many spawn points for that to work.  Vehicles are pretty unstable as well, so I doubt having that many of them on one server would work out too well.

Also, you have lifetime set to 300 here, which is only 5 minutes, so all vehicles will vanish from their spawn point after 5 minutes.

What do you have in types.xml for the children portions, like OffRoadHatchback for example, post that please.
