Hi, 

Do server owners need to add the new items to the files...?

Ps love the game can't wait to see what DayZ2 turns out 😉

Many thanks

Since the update today I now can't use the editor on PC....?

Is this a known fault..?

[duane_simmons 0]

Can you please make the account change in the server browser configurable for server owners because many of my players use different accounts to play different roles on my server. I being the server owner would like to configure the account change timers to better reflect my server game styles. I find the harsh timing waiting 15 plus minutes to get into my own server that’s unacceptable. 
 

My second idea is to remove the timer if a player is switching to another account on the same server. 
 

thanks,

Camps wiped? All my camps are wiped... I thought this update would not do that. Not just mine, noticed other people's as well.

If you mean the community mod, there is a possibility the editor was not updated the moment you tried. If you are having issues with it, please, contact the creator.

I hope I am getting your question right as there already is an option for community owners
The server config parameter is: disableMultiAccountMitigation = true;
Turning off the additional timers is setting this parameter to true

Hi, what server are you on? Where was your camp and what is your gamer tag? You can also create a ticket here.

On console community servers, custom areas using the white fog from Halloween event is acting as if it's toxic gas.

[Drift13b88 31]

Gun shots seemed to not be heard from other players at range until close enough.

Feature Request:

Is it possible to port over the grid inventory system to console? Give players the option to use that system or the basic through settings.

Please use type "SpookyArea", not "ContaminatedArea_Static". ☺️

I’m sure I’m tardy to the party, but finding issues with placement of tents, fireplaces, walls, etc. don’t know if all of this was intended. I know wall stacking was something on the docket, just curious if this will be tended to on console

Hi mike, would you please have a ticket number for me with more details?

No, literally the, type "SpookyArea", is acting as if it's "ContaminatedArea_Static" these areas where created prior to 1.22 and worked as intended just white fog, now they are still white fog but inducing bleeds, coughing, gas poisoning.

You truly don't want this in my opinion on console it is more prone to being bugged creating ghost space where a item can't be placed in bugged slots unless relog, also let's say you have a Mosin and would like to place it in a 63 slot bag it won't fit albeit that's more realistic factor on PC but on console we have luxury of, if have say 30 of 63 available it will fit and not be dependent on grid size placement.

[Drift13b88 31]

Granted I understand why you want it to organize inventory better.

We tried to reproduce it but everything is working as intended, no cuts, no gas poisoning...
Could you send us your mission files so we can check the setup? Or feel free to create a ticket and send me the number.

Ok I'll relay info to server owner and get back to you. Albeit these areas were created before 1.22 and working as intended SpookyArea gas maybe update changed them, although off because still appears as white fog.

Thanks a lot for the continuous support and enhancement of a great game!

I have been running a PVE focused server for about 2 years now. It’s fun and enjoyable, yet I believe the current level of environmental challenges is limiting the depth of the PVE experience. In a sense I have a strong feeling of untapped potential here. However, I also believe it might be fixed with relatively minor changes, although it would require experimentation (which could be explored by community servers). Therefore I would ask if it’s possible to consider the following new features.

1. Minimally modify AI just to avoid NPC standing where they would be easy to hit through walls and windows. This applies to zombies, wolves and bears. Currently they are a real challenge only when in open field and far away from climbable assets. Not sure about the complexity of this change, but it seems a doable change at high level by just avoiding stating right next to obstacles;

2. Make NPC stats and parameters configurable via json files. I imagine these configurations could be easily exposed: per attack type damage, hp, awareness levels and distance, etc

These two changes might give server owners an opportunity to create interesting NPC situations and a more challenging PVE experience beyond avoiding starvation.

Thanks for your attention and potential feedback 🙂

How about the suppressor sound? Shooting a suppressed gun makes nearly the same sound as a unsupressed gun.Besides that keep up the good work bohemia

[AVITGhostrider 1]

Is there anyway that, when you kill another player on official server you can get a notification who you killed? I love to snipe and by the time you get at the body you can only see survivor, maybe leave some sort of tag that you can collect or something, occasionally i like to message the killed player to let them know i left his gear at his dead body or meet up with him to give back what i can

It's not a bug they changed that purposely because IRL suppressors aren't meant to be silent, they can be heard but less. You'd have to be a fair distance away for a silencer to be silent.
