Build Feed

Track every base building event posted to Discord with player and object details.

This is a free module available on all plans.

What it does

The Build Feed module posts a Discord message every time a player builds a base object — walls, gates, fences, watchtowers, and any other buildable structure in DayZ. You'll know exactly who is building, what they're building, and optionally where.

This is useful for monitoring server activity, watching for rapid large-scale base construction, or just staying informed about what your players are up to.


Configuration options

Message cooldown

If a player builds multiple objects in quick succession, Vigil can group them or apply a per-player cooldown to avoid flooding your Discord channel with dozens of messages from a single base-building session. Set the cooldown to 0 to post every single event.

Show location

Adds a clickable map coordinate link showing where the build happened.

Embed colour

Customise the left-side colour bar on the Discord embed.


Notes

  • Build events are logged by DayZ in the .ADM log file as they happen, so Vigil picks them up within the next poll cycle (every 30 seconds)
  • The object name comes directly from the game log — it will use the internal DayZ item name (e.g. WallLog_Base)

Suggested Discord channel

#base-activity alongside the Dismantle Feed, so you can track both building and dismantling in one place.
