wrong spawn number?

Closed 1.1.3

Hello,

I've configured some of the monuments so they would have less NPCs. One of those monuments was The Dome, and I've decided to spawn during the day 2 to 5 NPCs during the day and 1 to 3 during the night. I arrived during the day, and I've encountered 3 enemies. So far so good. Killed them.

Meanwhile, the night arrived while I was still on The Dome. I was expecting to eventually encounter 1 NPC or maybe 3. Worst case scenario 5, since there could have been 5 NPCs during the day and I didn't know if they would clear out before spawning different ones for the night. But as soon as I arrived at the top of the dome, there were at least 8 NPCs.

Usually The Dome doesn't have NPCs, so even if the "Remove other NPCs" option was "false", there weren't any in there to start with.

And while I was writing this, I've decided to check again the config file of The Dome and noticed there were two options for NPC spawn during day and night. Right at the top, line 2 to 11, and then again on line 151 to 155. Is this suppose to happen?

Sorry if this is all just a confusion from me and if this doesn't even make any sense, sorry again 😛

So... should I just change both options or there was something wrong on the files? And by the way, when day change into night, do day npcs disappear and night npcs spawn? Or they accumulate?

Thank you

Edit:

So i was looking at other monuments and now it made sense, those are presets, however it raised another question: do those presets means that one of them will be picked randomly or that each preset will be spawned? In Airfield, for example, there's 5 presets, does it mean that each new day a new preset will be picked from those 5 or every new day those 5 presets will be spawned?

Sorry that you answered your own question before I could, but it seems like you have covered most bases and have a good understanding of what is going on! Kudos for that. 🙂

To answer your current question, each preset will all spawn. So you will total up all of the different presets and they will all spawn together.

If you were interested in joining the Mad Mappers Discord I handle support there as well, and created a helpful guide when customizing organizing or trouble shooting configuration of the different monuments and profiles. I could share that with you there if you'd like. It is also pinned in at least one of the channels we use.

By the way @Marco Almeida if that takes care of this for you, would you mind changing the status to solved?

You are of course welcome to ask any follow up questions you might have though 1st. No rush. 🙂
