Console DayZ servers can't run mods, so most server tools never reach them. Law's KillFeed doesn't need any: it connects to your Nitrado account and reads the logs your Xbox or PlayStation server already writes.
Every two minutes the bot downloads the newest admin log and turns it into Discord posts: PvP and PvE kills, joins and leaves, building, player positions and more. Through the same Nitrado connection it can also restart your server, change server settings and deliver trader orders.
PC servers on Nitrado get the same feeds. A few tools edit files that only exist on console servers, so they are console only. They are marked below.
Setting up one platform? See the DayZ Xbox killfeed and the DayZ PS5 and PS4 killfeed pages.

What you get
No mods, no FTP
Log in with Discord, connect Nitrado with one click and pick your server. The dashboard sees whether it is an Xbox, PlayStation or PC server on its own.
Full kill feed
Weapon, distance, body part, damage, streaks and K/D on every kill, the same as on PC.
Trader shop
Players buy items, packs and vehicles with server money on the web shop, and orders spawn at their drop point after the next restart.
Server settings (console only)
Switch raid mode, base and container damage, stamina, hitmarkers and night light from Discord, and add NPC spawns with XML events on the paid plan.
Server Files (console only)
Browse, check and upload your mission files from the dashboard, with no FTP. See Server Files.
Alt accounts
/alts lists the game accounts tied to one player through Discord (same linked account, verification matches) and every name each account played under; the Admin Channel gets an alert when a player joins with another account or a new name.
Maps and heatmaps
Player positions, heatmaps and movement paths on Chernarus, Livonia, Sakhal and Nasdara.

Questions
Do I need mods or a PC to run the bot?
No. The bot runs on our side and reads the logs Nitrado keeps for your server. All you need is your Nitrado account and a Discord server.
Does it work on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S?
Yes. It works with any DayZ PlayStation or Xbox server rented from Nitrado, whichever console your players are on.
What do I need to turn on in Nitrado?
Nothing for the kill feed. For player positions, maps and online lists, turn on Player List Logging in your Nitrado server settings.
My server isn't on Nitrado. Can I still use it?
Xbox and PlayStation servers need to be rented from Nitrado: the bot reads them through the Nitrado API. PC servers on other hosts can connect through our server mod, an app on the server machine, FTP / SFTP or a Pterodactyl panel instead. That is in early access: ask us for the download.
