What is happening if you've noticed, when the 1st error occurs @Jayson?

The 2nd one is likely just an error due to another plugin using that hook when it's called it's usually not much of an issue but that would likely be what that error is from. It's talking about the chinook dropped crate something is using that hook.

First error happens every restart dont know why.

 

2nd error
I enabled the event CH47 in BetterNPC 
This error happens and no NPC spawns

i also get the this error when the suppydrop event is triggered

Could this be from the data file i received from MAP Kong: Skull Island?
I just purchased MAP for this wipe and it had the BetterNPC folder to copy to Data folder.
Map was latest version from LoneDesign website.

i have removed all data and config files and reinstalled BetterNPC and NPCSpawn and so far no errors.
I have not used the data files from the Kong MAP as yet.

Based on this you can close this as i feel the issue is now resolved

Thank you

Thank you for all of the updates as you were looking into this. Currently looking into it but I think perhaps those custom files just need their formats updated. Thank you for reporting!

Changed Status from Pending to Closed
