The ^cargo^ and ^hoarder^ flags in the ^types.xml^ file, do they still work?

Recommended Posts

Pretty much as in the title...
The ^cargo^ and ^hoarder^ flags in the ^types.xml^ file, do they still work?
Not for nothing, in my servers they seem to always work, at least since 2020 (not perfectly, but the whole game is not exactly... "perfect"), but I had a discussion with two admins of a "declaredly Vanilla" server (all something to be verified, since I met a bear in the Balota swamp), who claim that the ^cargo^ and ^hoarder^ flags are part of the old DayZ loot system and and have not worked for several years... and all items spawn only for the set item number without any checks to see if they are present in any player depot.

And, unfortunately, I can't find a clear explanation text from Bohemia Interactive... just a lot of discussions on the forums, which aren't always "authoritative" (I've read a lot of inaccuracies, too).

Are those flags really no longer useful?

Do you have an official link from B.I., not too old, where they explain how the "types.xml" file works?
