⚖️ 1. General Server Rules & Discord Conduct

A stable community starts with clear expectations. Your server rules should cover:

• Player Conduct: Policies on toxicity, stream sniping, and metagaming.

• Discord Integration: Syncing in-game actions with Discord logs for transparency.

• Staff Transparency: Guidelines for admin tool usage to prevent "Admin Abuse" accusations.

📦 2. Mod Types & Compatibility Configuration

Not all mods are created equal. Use these settings to manage your modlist:

• Server-Side vs. Client-Side: Ensure you know which mods require a client download and which remain strictly on the server to save performance.

• Mod Load Orders: Proper configuration of your -mod= string to prevent startup crashes.

• Conflict Resolution: How to identify two mods trying to modify the same init.c or economy files.

💰 3. Market & Economy Guidelines

If you use mods like TraderPlus or Expansion Market, follow these configuration standards:

• Pricing Logic: Ensure high-tier military gear is priced to reflect its rarity in your types.xml.

• Stock Limits: Use configuration settings to prevent the market from being flooded with rare items.

• Safe Zone Rules: Guidelines for trader camping and vehicle theft in market zones.

🛠️ 4. Technical Configuration Settings

Advanced settings for fine-tuning your server:

• Day/Night Cycles: How to configure realistic time speeds for your specific player base.

• Stamina & Weight: Adjusting gameplay files to allow for more or less realistic movement.

• Loot Clean-up: Setting lifetimes correctly to ensure the server doesn't lag from "dropped loot" clutter.
