PunchedCard is not in the Chernarus types.xml.
On Livonia, the economy keeps about 5 on the map and spawns more when fewer than 3 are left. Each one lasts 4 h when nobody touches it. It spawns in ContaminatedArea places.
On Sakhal, PunchedCard does not spawn as random loot (nominal 0).

Tier1 is near the coast and Tier4 deep inland. "Counts" lists where copies count towards nominal: count_in_map means copies lying in the world, count_in_cargo in containers, count_in_hoarder in tents, barrels and stashes, count_in_player on players.
