About Buried Crates
Buried Crates makes it possible to find crates while using a metal detector. This makes metal detectors worth using at any stage of the game.
FEATURES
- Custom Metal Detector: Can naturally spawn inside world crates (Tools Crate, Military, Normal, Labs, etc.) with customizable spawn chances.
- Map Pings: As player scanning gets closer they get a pinged exact location making the process less exhausting.
- Scarecrow Encounters: Digging up buried loot has a configurable chance to spawn a scarecrow.
- Custom Crates & Weights: Define which crates and barrels can be dug up, complete with individual weighted probabilities.
- Hacking & Despawn Control: Configurable hack timers for locked crates and despawn timers for dug-up crates.
COMMANDS
/givedetector <player or steamid> (or in server console) - Gives the custom metal detector to the specified player. (Requires permission buriedcrates.admin)
SUPPORTED CRATES/BARRELS
PERMISSIONS & SPAWN PROBABILITY
In config you can define permissions and chance % of a crate spawning for each permission (if a crate doesn't spawn, vanilla loot items works like normal).
Crate types to be spawned uses a weight system, the higher the weight, the higher chance that crate type will be the one to spawn.
Default permissions: you can change or add to them in config
- buriedcrates.default - 25% chance of finding a crate
- buriedcrates.vip1 - 50% chance of finding a crate
- buriedcrates.vip2 - 80% chance of finding a crate
