0 AlienLab Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Maybe i'm incorrect. I'm not familiar with some of these expressions. I do know that chainsaws are not spawning correctly i just can't sort out what is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kubi Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I've seen at least one chainsaw spawn on my server without any issues. They're pretty rare, what makes you believe that they're not spawning properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AlienLab Posted December 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I've had 20+ guys searching for one and even loot cycling for hours and not found a single one. The only ones that are on the server was from a server event where the winners got a chainsaw. I've found 60+ of everything that spawn in barns and no chainsaws. That's not rare, that's non-existent.

0 kubi Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 It would help if you copied the relevant lines that you think have typos in them. The only references to the chainsaw I see in spawn_loot.sqf are if (_iItem == "Chainsaw") then { _iItem = ["ChainSaw","ChainSawB","ChainSawG","ChainSawP","ChainSawR"] call BIS_fnc_selectRandom; Looks fine as far as I can tell.

0 nedfox Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Couple of our players found them too without too much hassle. Remember it's FARM loot, not BARRACKS loot.. maybe your guys are looking in the wrong places? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MaKo Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Couple of our players found them too without too much hassle. Remember it's FARM loot, not BARRACKS loot.. maybe your guys are looking in the wrong places? I have the same problem. I've been powerlooting for 12 hours straight now between 6 Farm loot spots. Found 10 sledgehammer handles, 4 cz550 and many many shotguns. No chainsaw. Went to a supermarket just to make sure, and did find 2 cycle mix. But the chainsaw spawn is either bugged or ridiculosly rare. Rare droprates are fine, but not like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 kaotix Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 Check your RPT log to see if there are errors regarding the chainsaw. if there is a spelling mistake, the game will error trying to load something that doesnt exist and spit out the error into the RPT log. Surely just because you haven't found one doesn't mean they don't spawn. If it's your server, spawn one in through SQL or something to ensure they're working on your server?

0 Markk311 Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 It is set to 0.01 in the loot table. I turned it up to .1 and it's still rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BetterDeadThanZed Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 I can confirm a few people have found chainsaws on my server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MaKo Posted December 9, 2013 Report Share Posted December 9, 2013 It is set to 0.01 in the loot table. I turned it up to .1 and it's still rare. Where can I edit the spawn rate? Theres only a CfgWorlds Folder in In dayz_code.pbo/configs .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 AlienLab Posted December 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Confirmed looking only in Farm loot. Confirmed 3 days and no spawn. what gives? I think you guys may have hackers spawning them in and saying they found them. I can spawn them in with admin tools. I'm just not seeing them spawn in the loot. Help would be appreciated.

My server is whitelisted and the players that have found them are trusted members of my community. I do not believe they are using cheat tools to spawn them in.

Sure my adminteam is hacking and spawning the Chainsaw ;) , I can say that the chainsaw has been found on my server, I can't say what's going on your server.

0 MaKo Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 Theres an easy way to check if it spawns. I would simply increase the spawn rate temporarily. Only problem is that I can't find the loot table in dayz_code.pbo/config, theres only a cfgworlds folder. Can anyone tell me where I can find it?

0 Revoplay Posted December 10, 2013 Report Share Posted December 10, 2013 To explain this why so many doesnt find an Chainsaw: The Chance that on a Loot Spot in a Farmbuilding spawns Loot is 50% The Chance that from this spawned Loot something is from the Class farmweapons is 18% The Chance that from this spawned farmweapons the chainsaw will spawn is 1% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
