  2. [HELP] Increase Loot Spawn?

    in Discussion

    Posted

    I have been digging, and hunting through every file I can think of in the server release trying to find where to adjust the loot spawn rates. I don't want to make it ridiculously high, but higher than it is now. Right now it's dreadful. I'll spend 30 minutes in a large town or military complex and find barely anything.

     

    Last night 4 of us were running together in Athira, we were looting residential buildings trying to find food and drink. We ran around that town for about 30-40 minutes and had barely anything to show for it. Worst of all, only 2 cans of food, and no drinks. This was also directly after a server restart. I find it hard to believe that the loot is spawning as intended.

     

    We had several players join the server during this time, and a good portion of them complained about not being able to find loot, then left the server. As a dedicated server host, this is a nightmare. If multiple players are all complaining about the same thing, and I've seen other posts on the forums here complaining about low loot spawn, then there must be a problem.

     

    I see servers that have advertised higher loot spawn in their server name, I'd really like to know how they did this so I can rectify the issue. It really detracts from the game when you put a lot of effort in to trying to find things, but nothing is showing up. It also really discourages new players because they can't find anything.

    I've never experienced this, and referring to the amount of loot available as "dreadful" is borderline laughable.

    One of a number of things is happening here.

    Another large group spawned the entire city and it cleaned up AS your crew was arriving.

    Your server isn't restarting in a reasonable amount of time.

     

    Just the trash piles alone in Athira is enough to get a small group relatively kitted.

    I bet the majority will revert the flight controls.. We are not gearing up to go to flight school.  We are playing a video game for fun.

    It's actually the only chopper that doesn't use rotorlib.  The controls are tight but managable.

  10. New krypto banking and - krypto on death.

    How does one use this new banking feature?

     

    i understand there is the Krypto "Wallet" that situates down the bottom left, is that what we are talking about?

     

    Please help a noob out :)

    Hitting the inventory button on any phonebooth or Atm on the map will grant access to the Retrocrypt cloud storage software.

    You can withdrawal, transfer and deposit Krypto from your person to your account & other players. Loading bar in the bottom right after hitting the transaction button(transfer) will cycle longer with larger transfer amounts.

    I'm not entirely sure where this sense of entitlement comes from, MDC.  Our focus has been trying to get Epoch at it's core as solid as possible.  It's not our responsibility to make sure all 3rd party changes and software are compatible right out of the gates. 

    We're still early in development, perhaps you'll just have to wait before sticking your fingers in someone elses work.

    Also, while we're here, lets address the fact that you've locked the server files down to the extent that it's virtually impossible to add ANYTHING custom to our servers.

     

     

    This simply isn't true, surely an amateur can't copy-paste a bunch of distasteful changes like we've seen in the past...any modifications will actually take some effort, thought and time.

    I would suggest learning how to introduce whatever changes you'd like properly.

  20. What's the point of building when people can destroy your base with c4

    Unfortunately Cap, the devs aren't for shifting on this. The mere mention of indestructible building materials has them huffing and puffing. But hey, it's their game.

    I just hope that server owners will be free to implement indestructible materials on their own servers.

    No huffing and puffing here, it's just been proven to be an administrative nightmare that isn't sustainable, hurts server and client fps more than you could imagine and creates a scenario that isn't welcoming to new players.

    It's just simply not something we're going to do in our vanilla releases. notmad.jpg

     

    This thread seems to have gone full circle a couple of times already, if there are any specifics someone wants to adress, create a new thread.

    Locking thread.
