Problem with view distance

[Leonardo01]

hi guys I´ve this view distance code bellow it works fine but after some minutes the view distance goes back to default , does someone know what can be causing this problem ?

setviewdistance 2000;
bis_fog = 0;

setviewdistance 2000;
0 setovercast 0;
0 setrain 1;
0 setfog bis_fog

Just put it in a loop.

While {true} do {
setviewdistance 2000;
bis_fog = 0;

setviewdistance 2000;
0 setovercast 0;
0 setrain 1;
0 setfog bis_fog
Sleep 30;
};

You probably only need this though

While {true} do {
setviewdistance 2000;
Sleep 30;
};

can I use this just like that or do I need set a varible first then give it the true value so use it in the loop ?
if so where can I find information about this language

It keeps changing because the view distance is supposed to be the same for all players so its hard coded into dayz.

I did it and worked for me but I can only use it in one option for example 2000 then if I choose 500 it will go back to 2000 and it start to change 500 then 2000 forever , how can I use this without it happen

what I did was change the scope of my variable from local to global it worked but when I start the server it starts laging for everyone , but I don´t know if it has anything to do with this change that I did , then I put the old files back and let it as it was before do you know what can I do ? becase looks like if I use global variables it will lag the server after sometime
