Solved Some server problems

So I had some great help earlier from here for an issue that would have been fixed with time. So I am hoping I can get some help for this current issue as well.

So with just starting this server its only been me and my friends and testing stuff is hard when you have to shut it down just to change some file variables. So I been running into more issues than I can hold. And their criticism isn't helping at the moment either.

complaints I've gotten are": Loot spawn rate seems really low/nonexistent" tried a plugin but it seems worse than before so I uninstalled the plugins and hoping it works after awhile and goes back to before. Does anyone know of a good plugin to make the spawn rates of boxes and such better? I have betterloot but doesn't change that.

Quick Smelt seems to be changing back and forth from smelting 1 ore to smelting 25 and I have it set to 25.

Gatherer just reset back to default gather rates but files say its still 5x.

Anyone got any tips or help it be appreciated

 

You don't need to restart the server when you edit a config just reload it also make sure it is the config you are editing and not the plugin as some people seem to think that's what you do

 

Reload it as in refresh the folder in the program or? reload in game?

I've been editing from the config but I seem to be braking more than fixing as of right now.

What mod can I use to increase spawn rates? Which isn't toooooo difficult to understand I might add. Because last one I think broke the spawns I had

 

Reload as in reload the plugin after making changes in the config. As to spawns do you mean animals or loot

 

Ok gotcha. And both actually. I got complaints on animals and loot. I flew to the airfield when no one was on and not a single box was spawned.

 

If server was just restarted give it about 1 hour to spawn all boxes

 

Ok good to know. Thank you so much. I really only got on more question. I want to give everyone sign artist permission. And if I make a group called "everyone" in permissions. How do I set it so everyone is in there? Or is there an easier way? Sorry for all the questions

 

Groups are already made for players its called default so run these in rcon once you have the plugin installed
oxide.grant group admin signartist.cd
oxide.grant group default signartist.cd
oxide.grant group moderator signartist.cd
oxide.grant group admin signartist.url
oxide.grant group default signartist.url
oxide.grant group moderator signartist.url
oxide.grant group admin signartist.raw
oxide.grant group admin signartist.owner

Any more questions about plugins please ask them in the plugin topic but before posting look at the overview of each plugin

 

Alternatively, you could use

Code:

oxide.grant group default signartist.*

, which will give every permission, unless there's specific ones you don't want them to have.

 

If you were to do that they could paste an image on any sign, that is not a wise idea.

 

Not a good idea as it also gives them the admin permissions as well, besides I like it my way its more controlled

 

Thanks everyone. This is all very helpful. Going to do this all as soon as I can. You are all very helpful
