Description

There will now be 3 zones in multiplayer:

PVE - players cannot attack each other.
PVPE - players can attack each other only if both players have PVP mode enabled.
PVP - PVP mode is automatically enabled for all players.

Features

PVPE mode is enabled by default on the entire map.

A new item is available in the admin panel to create a PVP zone: "PVP Zone".

When adding a new PVP zone, a file yourservername_pvpzone.lua is created in the folder Zomboid\Lua on the server, it is needed to restore all zones after the server is wiped. Copy this file to your server configuration folder and immediately after wipe all zones will be restored.

Also, through the file yourservername_pvpzone.lua (located near the server configuration file) you can set zones using a text editor. An example of its syntax:

ServerPvpZoneList = { {title = "Zone #111", x = 11774, y = 6833, x2 = 11777, y2 = 6837}, {title = "Zone #222", x = 12724, y = 6733, x2 = 12777, y2 = 5837}, {title = "Zone #333", x = 14774, y = 3633, x2 = 7777, y2 = 4837} }

NOTE!!! The zones from yourervername_pvpzone.lua file will only be read and added to the server if no PVP zone is manually created (via admin panel). If you want to force update list of zones from this file, you need to remove all zones from list and restart server.

If you don't see the "PVP Zone" button in the admin panel, then you have another mod installed that isn't done correctly. You can call the PVP zone control panel at any time via debug commands:

local pvpzone = PVPE_ISPvpZonePanel:new(50,50,600,600, getPlayer()); pvpzone:initialise(); pvpzone:addToUIManager();

Hey @iBrRus
On my server, everything works well but sometime some players are seeing "skull head" on other player whereas all players are outside the PVP zone. I checked in game and nobody can damage each other, and player with the "skull head" do not see a skull head on his character by his side, so it's a kind of display desync :-/ Do you know what is going on ?

I created a PVP Zone (Shows in the PvP Zone list).
But it does not work.

Both players could not attack each other.

I created a new PVP Zone.
Same issue.

Mod doesn't work or the Mods Description needs updating with more info.

Does anyone know why the PvE zones don’t spawn any zombies but the PvP zone it allows it?

Всем привет! Скажите, что я делаю не так? Поставил мод, задал ПВП зону. На сервере по умолчанию включено ПВП. В итоге, вне ПВП зоны любой игрок, который активировал "Череп" может убивать любого, даже не активированного игрока.

If I add this mod and don’t create a PvP zone and have pvp on for the settings then will the entire map be pvpe

Does PvP need to be enabled in the server to use this? It says in your mod that PVPE - players can attack each other only if both players have PVP mode enabled, is automatically enabled by default on the entire map.
