How to Configure Starting Items on your DayZ Server

When newly spawning in a DayZ world, players will have set items provided in their inventories. As a DayZ server owner, you may wish to configure the starter items given to newly spawned players.

Thanks to Shockbyte's DayZ server config integration, you can accomplish this by simply listing your desired starting items in your server's DayZ server settings.


Configuring Starting Items

To change your DayZ server's starting items, you will need to define each item in your DayZ Server Settings.

  1. Access your control panel and Stop your server.
  2. Navigate to FTP > Config Files.
  3. Click DayZ Server Settings.
  4. Enter your desired starting items separated by commas in the starting_items field.
  5. Click Save and Start your server.
