Changing AI Spawn Rates
To edit/change the loot and/or spawn rates on your server, you need to edit the types.xml file.
This file can be found in the \mpmissions\dayzOffline.chernarusplus\db\' or \mpmissions\dayzOffline.enoch\db\folder. (Depending on the map you are playing on)
Manual Edit
You can Find the types.xml in the configuration files as a text editor for both the standard map and the DLC.
