SpawnConfig

So after a bunch of fiddling, I figured out the plugin and it works very well. The only issue i'm currently having is with junk piles. They never seem to spawn and reach the max population that I've set. They seem to always hover around 175, when my max is about 512. It seems they spawn better with the default server config.

I'm sure it's just a problem with the game itself and how it handles spawns, or pools, or just my config, but if anyone has any insight, I'd be happy to listen.

 

Been getting the error:

"failed to call hook 'OnTerrainInitialized' on plugin 'SpawnConfig v1.0.10' (NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object)

on server startup and the plugin doesn't seem to be working for me.

 

There isn't anything else. That line is the only error that is displayed. Should there be more?

 

I'm using build 2.0.3024. Is that not the latest?

 

I am using the lastest

EDIT: actually woopsi looks like not. i will test it out

 

3029 appears to have fixed the problem. Thanks Wulf!!!

 

I need help. When the plugin is loaded it says here

[SpawnConfig] Loaded 20 SpawnPopulations and 0 SpawnGroups.

 

Try deleting your SpawnConfig.json in the config folder and reloading the plugin.

 

Delete the config and do a clean server-restart

 

hello
i have 5k map i set
"animals": {
"TargetDensity": 60.0,
"SpawnRate": 4.0,
"ClusterSizeMin": 1,
"ClusterSizeMax": 1,
"ClusterDithering": 1,
"EnforcePopulationLimits": true,
"ScaleWithServerPopulation": false,
"AlignToNormal": false,
"Prefabs": [

not too much, not server lag?

 

Maybe that SpawnRate is to much... 2 should be fine and use ClusterSizeMax with 2 instead.

 

Thanks, one more question.

i set

Code:

  "trainyard_1_door_barricade_a_spawner_x-299y39z1089_3": {
      "MaxPopulation": 0,
      "NumToSpawnPerTickMin": 1,
      "NumToSpawnPerTickMax": 2,
      "RespawnDelayMin": 10.0,
      "RespawnDelayMax": 20.0,
      "Prefabs": [
        {
          "Prefab": "assets/prefabs/deployable/door barricades/door_barricade_a.prefab",
          "Weight": 1,
          "Mobile": false

for all barricade andi still have stacking barricade

 

Try to delete all lines which has something to do with the doors...

 

How do i make it so trashpiles and barrels are not spawning? Is this correct?

Code:

  "SpawnPopulations": {
    "loot": {
      "TargetDensity": 25.0,
      "SpawnRate": 0,
      "ClusterSizeMin": 1,
      "ClusterSizeMax": 1,
      "ClusterDithering": 1,
      "EnforcePopulationLimits": true,
      "ScaleWithServerPopulation": false,
      "AlignToNormal": true,
      "Prefabs": [
        {
          "Prefab": "assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/loot/Loot-Barrel-1.prefab",
          "Weight": 0
        },
        {
          "Prefab": "assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/loot/Loot-Barrel-2.prefab",
          "Weight": 0
        },
        {
          "Prefab": "assets/bundled/prefabs/autospawn/resource/loot/Trash-Pile-1.prefab",
          "Weight": 0

 

If you are doing this, then set everything to zero, so the server will not be confused about that and you can also delete all the prefabs with weights. It will look like this: "Prefabs": []

 

The plugin keeps making a Spawnconfig.json.old everytime I change the items in it. what do i do?

 

After update this plugin stopped working. Everytime I drag in the config i edited It just makes the default one and makes the edited config a .old

Each server update this plugin makes a new config file and saves a copy of the old one. You have to manually change the values in the new config file to match the changes you have in the old. There is no way around this and must be done each server update. I use a compare tool to see the differences and manually change them. That's just the way this plugin works.
[DOUBLEPOST=1488062995][/DOUBLEPOST]Also, Fujikura has a paid plugin on the chaos code site that doesn't require you to manually change it each update. I haven't tried it yet but it looks great.
