Dear forum members,
for some time now we have been creating and maintaining new ways to help game server admins with questions and problems as quickly as possible, e.g. our Guides section and the Nitrado Community Discord.

Therefore, we inform you that the Nitrado Forum will be closed on March 31, 2023. We are consolidating our community support to our Discord channel, which is faster and more efficient. We have also seen incredible growth in our community due to the hard work of our moderators and our bots. We are confident that this move will ensure that we provide the best support possible for our users.

Thank you to all members for your continued use of the forum!

Assistance with all questions concerning your Nitrado service can now be found in these spots:
Community Discord: https://discord.gg/nitrado
Guides section: https://server.nitrado.net/guides
Support Wizard: https://support.nitrado.net

  • Spawning a house

    right use this as a template in events (ps this is the house you after, I think lol there only 2 but this is the biggest 1)


    <event name="Static[event name]">

    <nominal>1</nominal>

    <min>1</min>

    <max>1</max>

    <lifetime>7200000</lifetime>

    <restock>0</restock>

    <saferadius>1</saferadius>

    <distanceradius>1</distanceradius>

    <cleanupradius>2</cleanupradius>

    <flags deletable="0" init_random="0" remove_damaged="0"/>

    <position>fixed</position>

    <limit>child</limit>

    <active>0</active>

    <children>

    <child lootmax="2" lootmin="0" max="1" min="1" type="Land_Barn_Brick1"/>

    </children>

    </event>



    then add this to cfeventspawns


    <event name="Static[event name]">

    <pos x="" z="" a="" />

    </event>


    don't forget to add your cords and the event name has to match in both files and have Static at the start. hope that helps

  • Banlist

    well I did change the password but they somehow got it again that's why I thought it wasn't a problem (also stopped offline raiding and added a admin p/w too so they cant do to much damage), that's why I was hoping there was a whitelist for ark like I use for my dayz server

  • Banlist

    done that a few times since I banned them, I wasn't online but was editing files for dayz and clicked wrong server and say they was on that's y I know its not working

  • Banlist

    does anyone else have an issue with the banlist not working ? I have a player I have banned from my server and is showing up as in the banlist but yet they are still free to join when they want.


    is there a whitelist hidden somewhere I can use instead ? I've looked for ages and can't see one

  • Spawning a house

    you need to use either 'staticfridgetest' or 'staticxmastree' event (then in eventspawns file change there cords to the place u want to put the building)


    <event name="StaticChristmasTree">

    <nominal>1</nominal>

    <min>1</min>

    <max>1</max>

    <lifetime>7200000</lifetime>

    <restock>0</restock>

    <saferadius>1</saferadius>

    <distanceradius>1</distanceradius>

    <cleanupradius>2</cleanupradius>

    <flags deletable="0" init_random="0" remove_damaged="0"/>

    <position>fixed</position>

    <limit>child</limit>

    <active>1</active>

    <children>

    <child lootmax="2" lootmin="0" max="1" min="1" type="Land_Misc_Well_Pump_Blue"/>

    </children>

    </event>


    as you can see after type=. if you change to the name of the building you want to spawn (found in mapgropproto.xml file)



    but I will say be carful using an event spawned house for a base, when u log in they can take awhile to spawn in and could cause you to die.


    hope this helps

  • spawnabletypes.xml file issue

    any one else had a problem with spawnabletypes file, for some reason now its saying there is a error on line 754 in a blocked comment


    <!-- START OF ZOMBIES -->

    <!-- -----------------------------Army----------------------------- -->


    but apparently now the second <!-- on the army line now says

    The string "--" is not permitted within comments


    any thoughts, I have tried copying it from other lines but still no luck. if I was to delete the blocked line would the file still work ok ?

    I need a work around as its throwing the rest of the settings out of wack and no cars will spwan in full like I have got set and all my weapons are haywire too
