DayZ server configuration layers
corroborated
Short answer
Different problems belong in different configuration surfaces.
Also: server.cfg · cfggameplay · central-economy
What to do
Use server.cfg for core server behavior, cfggameplay.json for supported gameplay settings, Central Economy files for economy/event behavior, and mods/scripts only when the desired change is outside those surfaces.
How it works
Different problems belong in different configuration surfaces.
