BetterLoot

It was mentioned a few times now...some did solve it anyhow, and for the others idk what they've done so far.
So i got no solution in that case for you.

 

Hi, I'm not getting any research paper in my loot crates?

 

If you did'nt update your LootTable.json, then it's normal

 

Might seem stupid but how do I do that

I know how to edit them but what do I add/edit

 

this is sarcasm or really?

 

Can anyone update this plugin or have an idea for a other loot plugin wich have research paper in it?
My players want play whit the new research papers and i like this plugin and use it long time.
i hope anyone can make a update whit the new research paper.
thanks a lot!
sorry for bad english

 

Taken from the FAQ:
You can remove lines, add lines ( take them from NamesList.json ), or change lines (decrease or increase) with the droplimits of your need
Zero is not supported as a value!! delete those lines.

This is pure realism
And the assumption, that server-owners read the plugins desctiptions AND FaQ-pages
Nothing else...And THIS was sarcasm

Well that was all sarcasm as it does not help people does it! I does not tell me what I need to add, we are not all clued up on this like you.

 

THX it works..i have update LootTable before but whit wrong name research paper not researchpaper now works thank you=).

 

This might by your sense...My approach on this is quiet simple: Who owns a server, from those people i expect they read byself whats new in the game, to get info about what recently has changed.
For This update, it would have been the Dev-Blog 123 >> Devblog 123

Every devblog has a changelog on the end. This includes Everything whats new and what might have been added.
On this update, you find there:

Code:

Added Research BenchAdded Research Paper

BetterLoot has the self-updating NamesList.json, which includes EVERY Item in the game.
This is the place where to look for, when new stuff was added, to include those in your loot-tables.
So the item to look for is...

Code:

researchpaper

Its not my job to teach people how to tun a server, its not my job to explain everyone everything twice, what can be read already on the pages.
Its not my job, to take everyone on the hand and to lead him to success.

If people are'nt able to inform themselves, to read and to understand themselves, how Rust works, then it would for some of them maybe time, to close their servers and to be only players again....

My 2 cents on it.

 

More sarcasm.
Research Bench and Research Paper are both in the NamesList. I was Looking for some advice not asking you to teach me how to run a server. I will look elsewhere for help as you are obviously not going to.

 

Sup...you've found it You're welcome.

And this was a general statement...clear questions get always helpful answers.
And vague suppositions get their corresponding responses...nothing else

 

I did say from the start the paper was not in any boxes? I knew it was in the namelist. I said I wasnt as clued up on all this. I was only asking for help. You replied with the "Who owns a server, from those people i expect they read byself whats new in the game, to get info about what recently has changed." and "If people are'nt able to inform themselves, to read and to understand themselves, how Rust works, then it would for some of them maybe time, to close their servers and to be only players again...." Quite clearly aimed at me.
I Can read. I do read the DevBlogs.

 

You are giving it a false colour...This was my reponse to your statement "Well that was all sarcasm.."
Nothing else

 

I've just deleted my LootTable.json to let BetterLoot recreate a new one (I've used the defaults in there before.) It recreated the file, and it also includes ""researchpaper": 100" now, so that should be fine. I've also set ""pluginEnabled": true" and reloaded the plugin again.

I don't see any research paper in crates or barrels, though. What can I do so that it does drop for players?

I'm using BetterLoot 2.6.3. I'm using default values for everything in the plugin's config, except for ""baseItemRarity": 3" on my server.

 

Arrr.Then it's sure again their chjanged decreased ItemRarity.
On the time this plugin was created, all blueprint stuff, like the books or fragments, had a specific rarity...Thats what it's based up to calculate the chances...
Seems, this base gets more and more lowered, which ends in a not more supported plugin, or some specific items.

 

Currently using the most updated version of this. 2.6.3. After a full wipe of my server. All plugins and everything else. Betterloot, once reinstalled and set up. Seems to be defaulting every box to 1 item each. I am not too sure why. I checked and none of the base containers are set to 1 minimum. All are 2-5 minimum. Any thoughts?

Nevermind I can answer this myself. Previously the plugin was running 100% no issues while still being "disabled", but after fresh install it is now running perfectly fine when I "enabled" it. Not toooo sure how I got away with it working for so long. Again, thanks for the hard work and sorry for the stupid questions.

 

does this work properly with the latest rust update? as i havent found any of the blue print pages on my server with the plugin installed

 

maybe im wrong but this sounds like its an easy fix but the person whom made it wont do so and its up to the user to do so?

 

You have to be kidding me right...
The author of the plugin clearly stated a million times that you have to add the item name into LootTable.json incase you want it to show up as loot. Please read the description of the plugin carefully
