  1. Hello, I have installed and configure this mod.
    Since I have no more crate on my server. Just barrels.
    And the areas are empty. How to fix that?



    Code:
    (07:34:40) | [BetterLoot] Updating internals ...
    (07:34:40) | [BetterLoot] There are 37 items in the global Barrels LootTable.
    (07:34:40) | [BetterLoot] There are 37 items in the global Crates LootTable.
    (07:34:40) | [BetterLoot] There are 38 items in the HeliTable.
    (07:34:40) | [BetterLoot] There are 91 items in the SupplyTable.

  2. so there are some things that are not spawing on the server now and i am 90% sure it is due to the fact that this over rides the default spawning and impliments its own and it is missing components. so
    duct tape
    gears
    glue
    pipe
    metal springs
    rifle body
    road signs
    rope
    semi automatic body
    sewing kit
    smg body
    sticks
    tarp
    tech trash

    we have worked around this while looking for a fix by creating a kit for these items but id prefer it if they spawned to encourage players to go out and hit barrels and have the only limiting factor on how much they collect be their time gathering not a cool-down timer. if i could find out how the game references these items would i be able to put it into the loot table and give them the 0-4 value and would they then spawn? if so how how would i reference these items. the basic rocket is "ammo.rocket.basic" I'm just unsure how the game calls these items.

    im having the same issue. it was working and now its not. and its slowly reverting the items back to the default
     
  3. So I have no trouble installing the plugin and getting it to change the loot, the problem is any adjustments i make to the json files or blacklist items no changes carry over into the game. Even simple changes like changing a number from 5 to 1 wont carry over. Id like to remove alll bleach,sticks,etc and add in the hazmat suit. Ive tried restarting the server after making changes as wel as re installing the plugin. For me it seems to either be On or Off, no editing the contents. So far this is my loot table file , ive removed the items i dont want and adjusted the values that i do, i just cant get it to carry over in game.

  4. minItemsPerBarrel and maxItemsPerBarrel control the item amount
    [DOUBLEPOST=1487542530][/DOUBLEPOST]
    The plugin does only control the loot content, but not how and when any loot spawns. This way the plugin is'nt the reason and can also not solved by the plugin.
     
  5. The problem is that the barrels don't change when I change the max and min item amounts.
     
  6. Then you checked maybe only those types not currently included by the plugin default config
     
  7. Hey Fuji, could you please take a look at my lists and see if you see any errors? Ive done everything correct to my knowledge however the loot tables will not update from default config of the Better loot plugin, and the blacklist has no effect on anything.

  8. Are you running " oxide.reload BetterLoot " after each edit? And make sure LootTable(1) is changed to LootTable
     
  9. Previously I hadn't ran the reload command, but just tried doing that and still no changes have occurred. I tried restarting the server as well and running the reload command again but none of my changes have carried over into the game. Also in my server files the LootTable file is named correctly, the 1 was added when i downloaded again to attach to my previous post
     
  10. After every file change you need to reload plugins you did chgange files for. In most cases that does work. But some crappy hosting comanies have strange loadings bahaviours, which only reload such files on a clean server start.
    When files are incorrect formatted, then plugins tells you this also on loading by returning an error.
     
  11. How would I add sewing kits to barrels and how would I change the amount you get from one barrel?
     
  12. Is there a way to change how OFTEN crates/boxes/barrels spawn?

    Until my server pop gets up, the roads are just littered with them.

    how would I exclude the large square crates and only affect green and purple military crates?
    [DOUBLEPOST=1487760955][/DOUBLEPOST]
    "sewingkit": 3, (this adds the chance of 1 to 3 sewing kits to spawn)
     
  14. BL does only control contents, not spawn or respawn times.

    kindly respond to my question above. thank you
     
  16. Hey guys is there any way to make the loot different from barrels to green crates, My loot seems to be all the same. So the only place to get camera and laptops are from supply drops.
     
  17. if its crate_normal, then you can't exclude especially this one because on the similar extended naming of all others.
    [DOUBLEPOST=1487789794][/DOUBLEPOST]
    THe plugin does only diffe between barrel and/or crate types by default, and for each of those type filters is only one valid item list available.

    is it possible that you make separate loot list like
    Code:
    "crate_normal",
    "crate_normal-2",
    "crate_tools"
    etc?
     

  19. Sorry Fujikura I'm new to this and I'm not sure what you mean?
     
  20. crates have an itemlist and barrels have an itemlist
