Weapon Caches Disappearing

I have added weapon caches onto my server via the 3d editor. They spawn correctly but only last for about 20 minutes before the server cleans them up. I used this guide http://www.dayzpatriots.com/adding-weapon-ammo-crates-1-7-7-1-t97.html before to add all of the exceptions, but the line of code that is of course the only thing i care about has changed from 1.7 to 1.8 that code is this:

"Check for Ammobox" \n
" {" \n
"if(!(_x isKindOf ""WeaponHolder"")) then {" \n
"diag_log (""CLEANUP: DELETING AN AMMOBOX "" + (typeOf _x));" \n
"deleteVehicle _x;" \n
"};" \n
"} forEach allMissionObjects ""ReammoBox"";" \n
"*/" \n
"" \n

We are told to comment out all of those lines and the weapon crates should stay but as i already stated that code doesnt exist. I really need some help fixing this as this is the last thing i need to do to polish my server off.
 
Try looking in server_functions.sqf.

Since I only run Epoch, if you can post the code block I can try to show you how to edit it.
 
Here is my server_functions

There is a post text limit.

You need to post it to pastebin and link it.

The area im looking for is the block with ReammoBox in it.
 
You should be able to just comment out these two lines.
Code: 
       "        deleteVehicle _x;" \n
       "        _delQty = _delQty + 1;" \n

Like so
Code: 
//       "        deleteVehicle _x;" \n
//       "        _delQty = _delQty + 1;" \n
 
The only thing I can think of then is that you have an antihack or some other script cleaning up your boxes.
If you use INFIstar or another installed antihack make sure you have the hacker boxes check turned off.
 
That would be this area in server_cleanup
Code: 
    /*%FSM<STATE "cleanup_objects">*/
    class cleanup_objects
    {
      name = "cleanup_objects";
      init = /*%FSM<STATEINIT""">*/"_missionObjs =  allMissionObjects ""ReammoBox"";" \n
       "_qty = count _missionObjs;" \n
       "" \n
       "diag_log (""CLEANUP:TOTAL "" + str(_qty) + "" LOOT BAGS"");" \n
       "" \n
       "_dateNow = (DateToNumber date);" \n
       "_delQty = 0;" \n
       "{" \n
       "    _created = (_x getVariable [""created"",-0.1]);" \n
       "    if (_created == -0.1) then {" \n
       "        _x setVariable [""created"",_dateNow,false];" \n
       "        _created = _dateNow;" \n
       "    };" \n
       "    _keep = _x getVariable [""permaLoot"",false];" \n
       "    _age = (_dateNow - _created) * 525948;" \n
       "    _nearby = {(isPlayer _x) and (alive _x)} count (_x nearEntities [[""CAManBase"",""AllVehicles""], 130]);" \n
       "    if ( (!_keep) && (_nearby==0) && (_age > 20)) then {" \n
       "        deleteVehicle _x;" \n
       "        _delQty = _delQty + 1;" \n
       "    };" \n
       "" \n
       "} forEach _missionObjs;" \n
       "" \n
       "if (_delQty > 0) then {" \n
       "    diag_log (""CLEANUP: DELETED "" + str(_delQty) + "" LOOT BAGS"");" \n
       "};" \n
       ""/*%FSM</STATEINIT""">*/;

So change this code in that block
Code: 
       "        deleteVehicle _x;" \n
       "        _delQty = _delQty + 1;" \n

to this
Code: 
       "        //deleteVehicle _x;" \n
       "        //_delQty = _delQty + 1;" \n
 
Hey Vampire, since you seem to be on the up and up with coding, would you have any idea as to how i can change the cleanup time for bodies and wrecks. I'm wanting to change the time till wrecks get cleaned up to 10 minutes, and bodies to 30.
 
You would need to look at what is called when it happens.

I'd assume a vehicle wreck calls server_updateObject with it being killed.

Body cleanup seems to happen in server_functions.sqf as the function server_spawncleanDead.

What do you mean by wrecks being cleaned up? every server I've been on the burnt wreck stays there till restart as far as I could tell.
 
Yeah, but im pretty sure there is a way to delete wrecked vehicles before restart. I'm just trying to reduce lag as much as possible and being a pvp server, there are always a lot of bodies and wrecks everywhere.
