Server configuration

RaG Viking Pack stores versioned config at:

$profile:\RaG_Core\Configs\RaG_Viking_Pack\RaG_Viking_Pack.json

Stop server before editing. Keep valid JSON, retain Version, and restart after each change.

Default version 1 configuration

{
  "Version": 1,
  "CanCraftShelterKit": 1,
  "DisableDamageForPlaceables": 1
}

DayZ's JSON serializer represents script booleans as 1 and 0.

Settings

Setting	Default	Actual effect
Version	1	Current schema version. Values below 1 are upgraded and saved as version 1.
CanCraftShelterKit	1	Enables built-in three-plank plus five-stick shelter recipe. Does not block existing, spawned, traded, or scripted shelter kits.
DisableDamageForPlaceables	1	Calls SetDamageDisabled(true) only in viking_shelter constructor. It does not currently control table, firepit, sundial, or warbanner damage.

Examples

Disable shelter crafting but keep shelter invulnerable:

{
  "Version": 1,
  "CanCraftShelterKit": 0,
  "DisableDamageForPlaceables": 1
}

Enable shelter crafting and configured shelter damage:

{
  "Version": 1,
  "CanCraftShelterKit": 1,
  "DisableDamageForPlaceables": 0
}

When damage is enabled, shelter uses its config-defined 50000 global health and damage multipliers:

Damage category	Health multiplier
Projectile	1
Melee	0.65
Frag grenade	20

These are damage-system coefficients, not fixed damage or guaranteed hit counts.

No settings for other systems

Current JSON has no controls for:

• lantern burn time, light radius, or fuel;
• raven detection radius, food use, or health loss;
• horn duration or noise;
• Idun health, stamina, or disease removal;
• coin conversion ratios;
• weapon damage;
• placeable kit dismantle tools or action time.

Those values are hard-coded in scripts or config.cpp.

Configuration recovery

If file is missing or invalid:

1. Stop server.
2. Back up broken file.
3. Move it outside active profile config directory.
4. Start server once to generate defaults.
5. Stop server.
6. Merge wanted values into generated schema.
7. Restart and test shelter crafting, placement, damage, and dismantling.
