loot stack sizes

im just curious if i can make the loot spawn using my current stack sizes, while still spawning the right amount of that item?. in doing so filling up a box instead of just the first row with wild stack sizes. i tried changing the config to true on line 780, it spawned the right stack sizes but they didnt match the numbers in the loot tables. example ( loot table set to spawn 10k wood, using my stack sizes of 2k, it would fill 5 slots with 2k wood). it currently spawns 10k wood in 1 stack or only 2k wood in one slot. i could be missing something in the loot tables or config.

yes, that is how Use Stack Size Limit For Spawning Items functions

it currently spawns 10k wood in 1 stack or only 2k wood in one slot

the remaining 8k would be in the TC. it will always spawn what it is supposed to spawn. otherwise that wood was from another loot table, or another plugin is conflicting.

if Move Resources Into Tool Cupboard is enabled then it can horde wood as intended

Resources Not Moved To Cupboards can prevent specific resources from going into TC

if you want to DM your config and loot table then I can take a look.

its not so much the wood and resouces as it is the armors and guns stacking abnormally. my config the /data/profiles medium and /difficulty_loot files attached

Medium Bases.json Medium.json RaidableBases.json

hi, explain abnormally for a specific weapon given a specific requirement. 

your config doesn't have "Use Stack Size Limit For Spawning Items" enabled either

stacks should be max 20 for all but gp which is 2k

this is with line 780 set to false when i change it to true the stacks dont exceed max but it appears theres less loot in the bases

"Loot Amount Multiplier": 4.0,

you have the multiplier set to 4x

so if fuse is 2 min and 10 max then it can be 8 min and 40 max with that multiplier

I guess what im asking is how do i get the boxes to fill up more while holding my stack limit??

that was my attempt to get more loot in the boxes but with the same stack size if i reduce the loot multiplier and increase the loot min and max in loot table will i get the desired effect?

no,  Use Stack Size Limit For Spawning Items is set false

so this is going to spawn a single stack.

  {
    "shortname": "fuse",
    "name": null,
    "text": null,
    "blueprint": false,
    "skin": 0,
    "amount": 9,
    "amountMin": 9,
    "probability": 1.0,
    "stacksize": -1
  },  

if you enable that setting and have the servers stacksize set to 3 then it will spawn this

if you change the loot amount multiplier to 4x then you will get this

OK so if im understanding correctly im going to set Use Stack Size Limit For Spawning Items to true, which keeps my stack sizes at 20. reduce the multiplier down to 1.0(default setting). and then increase the amount of possible loot in each stack to spawn thus filling out the boxes more and keeping my stack limit. ill give this a try if i still have issues ill shoot another message

it's not less items though. if you split a single item into 2 stacks then that single item becomes 2 items. which are counted towards the total.

if you don't want splits to count towards the total then you should enable Amount Of Items To Spawn Increased By Item Splits

you should read my last response and form your own opinion on what you want to do.

it must be the split counting towards the total that was confusing you.
