Any more mods to add?

Are you planning on adding any more mods to the server? I was watching some Youtube videos and I saw some thermal guns that would be nice to have.

Thermal guns? Sounds a little off-fiction lol. I'll check it out. I've got some more ideas, but not ready to promise anything yet.

Yeah, instead of having a night vision scope, it has a thermal vision scope. I've also seen a greater number of guns and vehicles, although that may be impossible to have in the basic dayz mod.

Ooh OK. Thermal sights lol. I'm looking into adding a few extra weapons and vehicles, but the vast majority of those mods require you to install RMOD. We may consider that down the line when there's a larger player base, but for now, if we required everyone who joins to download RMOD, our traffic would drop substantially. Most people, when they try to join a server and it kicks them out for not having a requirement, they just try another server. I don't want that.

Understood.  Me and Yolo where trying out the parachutes tonight, and they seem to deploy automatically after a certain height.  This combined with the fact that you can't steer makes it pretty useless unless you want an epic way to distribute people before a death match.  Is there any way to change that or am I missing something?

Nope. Nothing I can do to make them steerable

I was told that heli crash sites are disabled in this server, is there a way to add these back in without taking up too much of your time? If I was wrong and sound like an idiot putting this in the wrong section, then I'll just delete my comment.

Is it possible/advisable to add a kill feed to this server? It would be useful for when we do these death matches.

Heli crashes are enabled. I don't know why we aren't seeing them pop up. Maybe just unlucky.

I have been trying to add kill messages since I started this thing lol... Just can't get it to work.

Would it be possible to create and implement a currency system or AI traders like in DayZ Epoch?

I agree with _Howard_. I tried out DayZ Epoch and it looked like it had a tremendous amount to offer. If there's a way to implement some of the new elements like the added buildings, the great crafting system, or new weapons, it would make the game much more interesting. If adding them isn't possible then maybe making a secondary server that is Epoch.
