PMAEventManager

PMA Event Manager

Automated server event system for DayZ. Spawn World Bosses, zombie hordes, AI squads, and custom encounters — fully configurable through an in-game admin GUI. No restart required.



Features

Event System

[*] World Boss & Normal Events — Two event types: World Boss spawns all entities immediately for intense fights, Normal events support trigger-on-entry where entities only spawn when a player enters the zone.
[*] Multi-Wave Spawning — Split entities across multiple waves with configurable delays between them. Each wave must be cleared before the next one begins.
[*] Entity Support — Spawn Zombies, Animals, and eAI (Expansion AI) soldiers with full loadout customization. Mix and match different entity types within the same event.
[*] Alternate Locations — Set up to 6 different spawn positions per event. The system randomly picks one each time, keeping events unpredictable for players.
[*] Event Zones — Each event has a circular play area with configurable radius. Only players inside the circle can participate and deal damage.
[*] Auto-Scheduling — Events run on a timer with configurable intervals (hours). Restrict them to specific hours of the day or days of the week — no admin intervention needed.
[*] Arena Buildings — Spawn structures and fortifications at the event location to create custom arenas. Buildings appear when the event starts and are cleaned up when it ends.
[*] Visual Effects — Fog particles, smoke grenades, and atmospheric point lights to give each event a unique atmosphere. Toggle effects per event.
[*] Reward Statue — When all waves are cleared, a lootable statue spawns at the event center. Configure reward items with individual drop chances (0-100%) per event.


Admin GUI (In-Game)

[*] Visual Editor — Create, edit, and delete events entirely in-game. No config files to manually edit. Everything is saved as JSON on the server automatically.
[*] Interactive Map — Click on the map to place events and visually see the event zone circle. Drag to pan, scroll to zoom. Supports adding alternate locations visually.
[*] Tabbed Interface — Organized into General, Schedule, Entities, and Rewards tabs so you can configure every aspect of an event without clutter.
[*] Force Start / Stop — Instantly trigger or cancel any event with a button press. Useful for testing setups or running manual events.
[*] Notification Editor — Customize the title and description text that players see when an event starts, ends, or completes.
[*] Party & Leaderboard Management — View all parties, kick members, delete parties, and configure leaderboard rewards directly from the admin panel.
[*] Keybind: Ctrl+Z — Opens the admin menu. Only works for players whose Steam64 UID is listed in the admin file.


Leaderboard & Stats

[*] Per-Event Kill Tracking — Every kill inside an event zone is tracked in real-time. A top 10 leaderboard is displayed to all players during the event.
[*] Persistent Global Stats — Player stats (total kills, events completed) are saved permanently and survive server restarts.
[*] Rank Rewards — Configure item rewards for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place players. Players can claim their reward once per leaderboard cycle.
[*] Auto-Reset — Leaderboard resets on a configurable interval (default: 7 days). Unclaimed rewards remain available until the next reset.
[*] Event History — Stores the last 20 completed events showing event name, timestamp, and the top 3 winners with their kill counts.


Party / Team System

[*] Create Parties — Players can form teams at a configurable in-game currency cost. Party names are limited to 24 characters.
[*] Team Management — Invite online players, accept or decline invites, transfer ownership, kick members, or disband. Invites expire after 120 seconds.
[*] Up to 8 Members — Each party supports up to 8 players fighting together.
[*] Team Leaderboard — All kills from party members are pooled together. Top 3 teams receive configurable rewards, claimable once per cycle.
[*] Persistent — Party data is saved as JSON and survives server restarts. No progress lost.


Zone Protection

[*] Damage Blocking — Players standing outside the event circle cannot deal damage to event entities. Any damage applied is instantly healed back.
[*] Kill Validation — Only kills made from inside the zone count toward the leaderboard. No credit for sniping from a hill outside the circle.
[*] Anti-Grief — If an entity is killed by an outside player, it is respawned. The event cannot be ruined by players who refuse to enter the zone.


Map Marker Support

[*] Automatic Map Markers — When an event starts, a marker with the event radius is placed on the map so players can find it. Supports: BasicMap, Expansion, VanillaPPMap, and LBmaster.
