What running a DayZ server involves.
A DayZ server is configured mostly through files: serverDZ.cfg for the name, password, slots and mission, and the mpmissions folder for the map (Chernarus, Livonia…). The central economy, which controls loot and vehicle spawns, is set in types.xml and the related files.
Mods come from the Steam Workshop and are loaded with the -mod= launch parameter; their .bikey keys go in the keys folder so modded players are accepted. Players load the same mods, often through the DayZ Launcher.
Frequently asked questions
How do I install mods on a DayZ server?
Copy the mod folders (@ModName) to the server using the file manager, add them to the -mod= parameter in the startup settings and place their .bikey keys in the keys folder. Players must load the same mods.
How do I change the map on my DayZ server?
Enter the matching mission in serverDZ.cfg, for example dayzOffline.enoch for Livonia, then restart. Paid maps such as Livonia require players to own the DLC.
How do I change the loot and how often it spawns?
The central economy is set in the types.xml file in the mission folder (nominal, min and lifetime values). Stop the server before editing these files, then restart to apply the changes.
Can I change plans later?
Yes. Compare the RAM, vCPUs and storage of each plan, then switch plans if your DayZ server needs more resources.
