Hello All!
I am currently hosting a DayZ.st server and it is working well. There are a few things I would like to add to the server before I finish editing it regularly.
Anti-combat logging. The disco-bot script I found didn't create bots on combat log. It created them whenever someone logged off and it stayed there, and the person could log back in with their gear both on the dead bot and on themselves. (Need a link to a working script if there is one available atm)
AI Patrols: Haven't looked into this much, my hopes are to get something that will have 3 types, soldiers, bandits, and survivors. I have seen a few that do this, do not know much more than that because I have yet to look into it.
**PRIORITY**Looped Global Messages: Mainly want to enable this so that I can help redirect people to the facebook page to help build the community, or report hackers. I looked into the http://sponsored.dayz.st/wiki/index.php?title=Loop_Messages_from_DB, the lines of code I was supposed to change was not what the articles said they should be (original). They looked closer to what they were supposed to be after the fix, but wrong in a few places.
Next post shall contain are the code for each file (Cleanup, and monitor)
Note: monitor has the entire code, cleanup is the problem child as far as I can tell and it has the specific sections of code (as far as I could tell since it was not similar to the tutorial at all)
Any help on how to get the looped global messages to work would be great! I tried editing code in what I assume to be the correct spots but the messages did not show up (added into the database in bliss correctly)

- Connect to the DB using the control panel
- Open the MESSAGES table
- Click INSERT tab at top
- ID - This is sequential, start with the number 1
- PAYLOAD - the actual message you want displayed
- LOOP_INTERVAL - how many SECONDS before this message displays again
- START_DELAY - how many SECONDS before this message starts the first display
- INSTANCE_ID - select your instance ID, do NOT leave it null
