I forgot numbers greater than 1 million are truncated when converted to
string:
http://killzonekid.com/arma-scripting-tutorials-float-to-string-position-to-string/
KeyStartNumber exceeded 6 digits which is why it was being truncated to
"1e+011" and getting stuck on loop (as that string was already in
currentObjectUIDs) as mentioned in 2df7279.
Starting at 10, there should never be more than a couple duplicates
generated, so keyStartNumber will never exceed about 100 max. Added an
exit just for a fail safe.
keypadCancel returns false when a combo/keypad dialog is not open and
when reset by calling the code keyPadReset = {uiSleep 2; keypadCancel =
false;};
There is a 2 second delay which makes brute forcing very very time
consuming. Note there must be a delay when resetting the variable since
fn_selfactions will update so quickly it will display the
unlock/lock/remove option before onUnload is executed.
A Plot For Life also includes Precise Base Building by Mikeeeyy. Precise
base building has no variable to switch it on or off, I don't think it
should.
Seems to work well enough, this may conflict with the duplicate object
uid fix, it appears to spam my server rpt.
Looks like the error was:
r_player_Nutrition = [_NutritionLoss];
It should have used the set command, since the array was already defined
in variables.sqf. But there is no need to use an array for a single
value anyway.
Fixes RPT error on login:
Error in expression <hyd"] spawn player_death;
};
};
if (dayz_nutrition > 0) then {
_Nutrition = >

Also moved the dayz_epoch_b stringtable into a dayz_epoch package in the
dayz_code stringtable.
This makes it easier to maintain and search for code strings. Epoch_b
only holds extra models and textures now.
The hive call in server_publishObject is the same between vanilla and
Epoch. The only difference is vanilla uses the _inventory area for
owner, lock code, etc. variables where as modular Epoch items just store
an empty array there.
The object classname does not need to be sent in the PV because it can
be obtained on the server.
PVDZE_veh_Publish was not used.

Moved dog files to the \dog\ folder and pzombie files to the \pzombie\
folder. Also removed some legacy files that are no longer used.
The actions\ and compile\ folders are fully up to date now
The protective box is not needed on Chernarus.
If other maps need it we are better off spawning a permanent box around
the debug area once, instead of constantly creating new boxes every time
a player logs in.
Achievements are saved in the state field, so we don't have room to save
friendlies there anymore. DZE_FriendlySaving is removed for now. I will
add it back later with a save to player profile instead.
The dayz_players variable is not used for anything. There were several
other unused variables in server_playerLogin.sqf.
MPHit does not always fire when a player is killed:
https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA_2:_Event_Handlers#MPHit
Using either MPHit or MPKilled is not a good idea here. There is already
a local 'killed' event handler which fires on player death
(player_death.sqf). That script sends a PV (priority message) to the
server which triggers server_playerDied. That means fnc_plyrHit needed
to finish sending its data to the server via public setVariables
(non-priority messages) before server_playerDied executed. Triggering
both these scripts at the same time was a bad idea.
Instead of sending the data to the server via setVariable I just
included it in PVDZ_plr_Death. This also lets us pass extra information
from the damage handler like ammo type, cause of death, etc. Still need
to test, but it should be more reliable and performant than
fnc_playerHit called from MPHit or MPKilled.
DayzGearSave is no longer used. I will submit a pull to remove it from
vanilla too.
Player_dumpBackpack is not a good solution to stifle duping. Players can
not see friends backpacks dropped on the ground. That is a problem when
they want to trade backpacks. They don't understand why their friend
can't see it. Also players can still get the "gear" scroll action if
they look where the hidden backpack is.
If it is still a problem after all the updates to current dayz code then
we should submit a pull request with a better solution to vanilla.
It makes no sense to rename the identical DayZ PVs to have an E in their
name. I don't see any good reason it was done in the first place. All it
accomplishes is breaking script compatibility between the two mods and
requiring different publicvariable.txt filters. The only time it makes
sense is for custom Epoch variables that aren't used in vanilla.
All admins have to do to update custom scripts is swap the names
according to the change log.
Note I've submitted a pull request to replace PVDZ_veh_Save with
PVDZ_obj_Save in official too because they are duplicates.
Needed to add it to variables.sqf lists.
@icomrade - Any reason FireBarrel_DZ was removed? I think we still need
it, since it is an epoch buildable class, unless we merge it with
Land_Fire_barrel.
