"Arrow Length (Default 15)": 25,
"Arrow Size (Default 4)": 10,
"Arrow Time (Seconds, Default 60))": 420,
"Cargo Plane Alerts (true/false)": true,
"Helicopter Alerts (true/false)": true,
"Show Coordinates (true/false)": true,
"Supply Drop Alerts (true/false)": true,
"Supply Drop Arrow On Landing (true/false)": true,
"Supply Drop Arrow Until Empty (true/false)": true.....................Without the arrows all we get are the announcements. How should this be changed then? And will it still present the arrows to see the drops. Or are the arrows Totally Gone ?? -

I don't want to waste anymore of your time Wulf. So here it is. What is the Purpose of this Inbound Plugin ???? And what does it show. And is it even a useful tool on my server anymore for locating Drops? Or just forget about Inbound> Period? It seems to have no use anymore.
You say that the CHAT still works. We don't need more chat plugins. We have lots! We need one that points the way to the drops again!......Please -

Wulf. I heard there is a Site that a person can use to Verify a json file. Example would be. The heli Crates and the Contents in each individual chest. Or loot setups for the Bradley. Or doing skins. Is there a way to check to see if the json file is properly config'd. Without conflict. And will it tell or show where the errors in the File are? Is there such a Site???? Thanks for any Response!

Even with a non working arrow this is still a great and very handy plugin. give ample warning regarding Heli and airdrop coords are very accurate,

Maybe if there is a Conflict creating Arrows that the Admins can see. And Players cannot. Can you not use the idea of the plugin that is a "BEACON Light". Something to encourage players to collect the Drops instead of just giving up Altogether. There must be even a way to implement the old Plugin that allowed you to find your "Dead Body"! Something like that!!!! I know your a busy guy and we all see it with all these plugins you work/design and maintain. I just thought this would be simple. I've given you 2 alternative ways to ADD something....Anything that would mark the Location. Or how about the Old Plug where you could look at your "RustIO map and see the Drops Rough location", and search the Area. Something simple. Anything would be cool. Alot of ideas already out there and programs. I like your stuff and use it all the time. So I'm not here to give you a hard time. Just some Ideas and an Honest Request for some kind of Marker besides Coordinates......Thanks

all you have to do is watch the Rust IO map and see where the plane is on the map when the announcements come up (all my players do that) , also the coords are shown and you can work it out on the rust io map and set the red marker so you dont forget, whats hard about that ? Fancy drop already has the beacon set to yes but is "broken" due to the same constraints that affect this plugin. and the "where" plugin that tells you where your body is only shows the direction,
Personally i cant see what alternatives you have given that are not already available and cannot work due to Oxide constraints, if you use the same method as the "where" plugin it will still just give you the direction the drop is, the same as Fancy drop does (which also gives you the distance) if you are within the set range (mine is set at 1000)
I believe that if any method was available it would already be done and dusted, -
The arrow that used to show up was done in DDRAW but from what I remember a looong time ago they removed that function from players because or either hackers were using it or clans were using it somehow to draw and it was causing lag... I dont remember which but I do know that DDRAW can only be seen and done by admins now.
The old Dead Body arrow was also DDRAW and when that went away so did the arrow.
Now what I could see is possibly using the newish function where addons can draw a circle on the map but make it a general area so they still have to search for them... but then also comes in how does the addon call the circle to show up, how does it make it vanish after a time, how much lag does it cause when its formes/removed... I would say that would be a cool feature but I wouldnt bite @Fujikura's head off over it. -

@theeye Im not mad or anything.. DDRAW is how that arrow is drawn in game, Im not yelling... I love this addon as well when the arrows worked and just offered another suggestion (as you did)... and last I checkec the Beacon addon didnt work either but I dont use that addon.
-
#Theeye IF you read the last post i submitted it already tells you that the beacon does not work, and that and the arrow have been broken for months. I use it and have done for a long time, with and without the arrow, and if you actually read Razors post you will see that *HE would not bite devs head off.

Any chance of using the "temporary direct draw permission" that "Dangerous Treasures" plugin uses, ? it allows players to type /dtd and gives a distance gui which shows direction of treasure chest and only lasts 15 seconds at a time,
If not no worries , it doesnt take much to work out where the drop is using Rust io map coords, -

how can it be exploited ? you type /dtd to see when the next treasure chest is (and menu) and thats all you can do, you cant alter anything or use admin commands to do anything else ? , i dont get the reasoning, there is no permissions for admin given to anyone
