What is types.xml in DayZ?

types.xml is the Central Economy file that lists every classname the server can manage, with nominal, min, lifetime, restock, cost, quantity, category, usage, value, and flag fields that control how loot respawns.

Does the Types Editor upload my file to a server?

No. Editing stays in your browser. You can upload your own types.xml or start from a vanilla Chernarus, Livonia, or Sakhal CE file, then download the edited XML for your mission folder.

Can I bulk edit many classnames at once?

Yes. Select types in the list, open Bulk edit, and apply nominal, min, lifetime, restock, cost, quantity, or flag changes to the selection in one pass.

About the Types Editor

DayZ Central Economy uses db/types.xml to decide which classnames exist in the loot pool and how aggressively the server tries to keep them in the world. Nominal and min drive restock pressure; lifetime and restock control cleanup timing; flags such as count_in_map, crafted, and deloot change how the economy counts stock and dynamic loot.

This editor lets server owners open a mission types.xml in the browser, search and filter by category or spawn state, inspect each type beside its DayZDB item image when available, and change fields with short explanations. Start from your own file or a vanilla Chernarus, Livonia, or Sakhal CE export, then download a valid XML ready for the mission folder.

Pair it with the CE types browser for read-only map comparisons, loot groups for building placements, and CE meta for economy limits. Nothing is uploaded — edits stay on your machine until you download the result.
