Name: [DTM]PvP|Oxide|Sleepers|1/2Craft|NoCraftC4|OnwerTooLazyToCheat
Console Connect: net.connect 208.117.11.45:28035
Has /location and some other goodies. If you want to help with admin let me know, but no admin cheating, 'k? Maybe we can set a spot to the far far east if anyone wants admin mode to mess with building tests, but none of that anywhere near the real map area. I already spawned a car without thinking about the fact I had no idea how to remove it, but fortunately it is so wedged into the rocks it will be useless to anyone that finds it.

Starting my house at: http://www.rustnuts.com/?x=5775&y=384&z=-1916#scroll
Out in the open, so bound to be raided eventually ... if we get a population, of course.

I'm just going to build small 1 square houses all over the place. I don't plan to have a base. Each house will have food, weapon, ammo, clothes, etc. Survival packs.

Thanks for doing this by the way. Awesome.
Plan to advertise with a link to this message board for "forum" support?

How will you remember where they are if you have houses all over, easily killable and lootable?

Did you not see the title? The owner is too lazy to advertise. :p
Feel free, however, to go do that if you wish. Might need to if you want to get more <s>victims</s> players.

If you'd rather not direct people here there is a free web hosting space that comes with the server. If anyone wants to put something there about the server as part of the advertising let me know and I'll give you the access to fiddle with it.

You need to turn down resource kits.
I've gotten so many I've researched things like Blood Draw kits!
Cake has so many he's throwing them away.
I'd recommend turning down blueprints too.
Metal house parts, on the other hand, seem to be perfectly rare. I've found only one part, a ramp. I've also found two bars of C4 now, so not sure if that's rare enough or just right?

I built a little two story fort on the eastern side of the big forest. Drops seem ok. Shotgun and Mp5. Maybe too many research kits, but I have been using them on leather and other armor. Maybe sub in the shitty weapons. The pipe shotgun is actually pretty good.
I'll only be on late nights for a few weeks.

I'll fiddle with the drop rates tonight, lower BPs and Kits a bit more and find something else to put in there to take up the slack.
Maybe sometimes zombies will start carrying around some logs? Maybe some raw chicken from time to time?

I'd do food (cooked or the cans), ammo, and metal fragments (low amounts)?

I wonder about scarcity and server length. I was able to get pretty kitted out in a short time. Crappier lot would slow that down.

I posted a JADto Reddit servers... So far that does not seem to have done anything to the server #s.
Total, there are 17,303 players across 4,989 servers right now.
Maybe I should have posted a normal ad.
It should now show up here at some point.

I logged in and saw two people who weren't us. JerTheFox was back, and someone new. (TheUsurper? Can't remember)

Three users connected that aren't us. Just did a reboot after some loot table tweaking and I think I figured out the C4 crafting thing finally so that should be fixed. If you get the chance to test it let me know how it goes.
And let me know if you ever see anything odd on the loot drops. I'm still not convinced that mod is working right, so I put in all sorts of random stuff on small chances as a test. Raw chicken, bed, sleeping bag, hand cannon, pipe shotgun, handcrafted ammo, that sort of thing. Odds of those are small but a few should come up from time to time.

Look into "Auto Location." That newbie map thing says it supports it... it may save us from having to enter in our coordinates every time.
