Changing the cost of cupboard upkeep?

I run a 10x server and the cost to upkeep the cupboard is really low which allows players to get 43 days protection on 10000 wood i see all the commands like 'decay.upkeepperiodminutes' i changed it to 12 hours rather than 24 to see if that would balance it a bit and saved to cfg but it did not change ? - maybe server restart required?
Anyone worked this out yet or maybe a plugin to control this easily .thanks

 

anyone work this out yet?

 

It works fine for me (Testing with 5mins) Gyazo - ea90982eb9cd459cf515f29836499154.png
The "cost for 24hour" text doesn't change.

 

Ahh so the text doesnt change is prob whats catching me out . I run a 10 x server how about you ? can you show me what commands you used exactly to get this result.thanks Mr jeff !

 

Yeah the text doesn't change unfortunately, i'm an admin for terminus.
Sure i did in console:
decay.upkeepperiodminutes 0.0833333 (which is the 5 mins i tested with)

try decay.upkeepperiodminutes 720 (12 hours)

 

thanks so much i will give it a go mucho appreciated!

 

how can i disable this cupboard decay system. i want to use the old version . is it possible ?

 

Try in console.
decay.upkeep false

Check this thread for more info: Solved - Enabling/Disabling Cupboard Upkeep | Oxide

 

You can go back to the old system with decay.upkeep false

 

i try this but..

i type decay.upkeep "false" in console but it dont work then. server restart needed after that ?

 

I haven't needed to restart for it to work. Works fine. A restart may work.
If you check the link i posted above and look at the image, there are a few more convars to do with the upkeep if it is disabled.

 

your link and the picture I have seen many thanks for that, but unfortunately I still don't understand what I have to change so that I can use the old system

 

decay.upkeep false - disables the need to feed tool cupboard resources

If you use the convar above it will then use these below.

How long should this building grade take to decay when not protected by upkeep, in hours (numbers are hours)
decay.durationtwig = 1 (default)
decay.durationwood = 2 (default)
decay.durationstone = 3 (default)
decay.durationmetal = 4 (default)
decay.durationtoptier = 5 (default)

 

thank you very much, i will test it

i try decay.upkeep false and
decay.durationtwig = 168
decay.durationwood =168
decay.durationstone =168
decay.durationmetal = 168
decay.durationtoptier = 168


but i see that the TC will use stone and HQ.. but thy. 168 hours are so long..

 

In console type:

Code:

decay.upkeep false
server.writecfg

Restart Server.

OR

You can add decay.upkeep false to your start.bat file.

 

this worked for me
Hit F1, then Type:

Code:

upkeepPeriodMinutes 196000

Hit enter

 

Confirmed using F1 console works with no restart etc

 

anyone noted the upkeep command stoped working?

EDIT:

it changed to: upkeep_period_minutes

 

Thanks for the heads up

 

I actually love you for this.....
