  1. Use the livemap for your Server, login and click on "Loot". Then you can see the barrels and the crates from airdrops. red barrels are the "good" ones from BetterLoot. Grey is normal. Maybe it will help you =)

    and for the baseItemRarity, check following command ingame --> "/loot" . I think you mean something like that.
     
  2. Thanks for the reply, but I don't think you understood my post. That method is exactly what we did when we had IO installed, but we uninstalled it for performance and immersion reasons. It was causing 500-1,500ms delays whenever population was high and also takes a lot from the direction we want our server to be (more survival based, everyone was basically just looking at their web browser instead of the game).

    Since BetterLoot doesn't require the IO map to run, it would be nice to have a command that generates a txt report of the items that are actually spawned in the game inside of barrels. Right now we have /loot that gives a percentage based on categories, but it would be infinitely useful to have an actual list of the items sitting in barrels.

    Thanks for trying though ;)
     
  3. You can still use the IO map without the IO plugin, and still view loot. And creating such a log would cause server wide lag, but only for a moment or two. Depending on map size/amount of barrels, the report would take quite awhile to generate as well.

    BUT, I do like this idea so we can tweak the percentages and get an idea of how big the impact of our changes have.

  4. To be honest, that picture proves nothing. RAM usage is determined by how long a server has been up, how many buildings are on a server, other plugins, etc.

    Also, not to mention these are two different servers, so you can't say that the Better Loot plugin is the reason this one is using an autistic amount of RAM and the other is not.

    This game suffers from terrible memory leaks as well, albeit I don't think 12 GB is normal.... I've been using this plugin for a month now and have had zero issues with it.
     
  5. Is it possible to increase the drop rate on one particular item? if i wanted say, the revolver to drop more often but all else remain the same?
     
  6. Any way to stop BetterLoot logging in console show the refreshing of containers? abit spammy for my liking.
    Code:
    (08:07:57) | [Oxide] 8:15 AM [Info] [BetterLoot] BetterLoot: Refreshed 18 containers (0 destroyed)
    (08:09:58) | [Oxide] 8:17 AM [Info] [BetterLoot] BetterLoot: Refreshed 3 containers (0 destroyed)
    (08:10:58) | [Oxide] 8:18 AM [Info] [BetterLoot] BetterLoot: Refreshed 2 containers (0 destroyed
     
  7. Hey, is there a way to hide messages that's being broadcasted to console?
    This plugin is so to speak spamming my console with info i dont need to read, and makes my console look very messy.
    I want to be able to read chat messages in the console, but its hard to see what is what when better loot is sending so many messages

    Edit: Sorry I was to incompetent to realize the person before me asked the same question, feel free to remove this post.

  8. dcode updated BetterLoot with a new update entry:

    1.9.2

     
  9. just a quick question if i set blueprint rarity to 4 instead of 2 will it make it more hard to get blueprints?
     
  10. how to close command /loot and /blacklist for players, and allow to use it for administrations olny?
     
  11. If i blacklist an item using the cfg file, will this remove the item from my server or just from barrels/boxes?

    What I want is basicly to remove "c4" and "Rockets" from barrels so that you'll need an airdrop to obtain these. is this possible?
     
  12. maybe stupit but ...

    How can i know wich item are in common/uncommon/rare/veryrare item?
     
  13. I translated the strings in the config file but server console messages and chat messages ingame stay in English. Any idea why that happens?

    Did you reload the plugin after? Did your config reset after reloading? If the config reloaded, you likely missed some formatting.
     
  15. Am I doing something wrong? I added a bunch of items to the blacklist to stop them from spawning, instead that's just making it so if players craft those items it removes them and destroys all instances of that item. I guess I'm not understanding the config file?
     
  16. Is it possible to add an option to enable or disable the message?
     
  17. Nevermind, I figured it out.
     
  18. I was hoping someone could help me. The description says that this mod doesn't effect airdrops, but I have noticed that airdrops no longer seem to have any timed explosives, ever. Any idea, if it could be this mod, or how I might go about finding out why. Explosive.timed is not blacklisted, just to be safe.

    Did you ever figure it out. I too like the idea of having the revolver only spawning more often.
