Convoy 2.5.2

When the owner dies or leaves the range, the guards will run to attack other players and bases very very very far away

Is there any way for the train to only attack those who attack it? For example, if player 1 attacks, and player 2 is nearby, currently player 2 is also attacked. In the PVE mode settings, it says that it works like that, but it doesn't seem to be working correctly, or does it only work when the player triggers the event? Why did I have to increase the amount of damage to become the owner in order to prevent players from trolling the event?

Is it possible to implement an alert when the player is on cooldown? Because players in cooldown are being kicked out, but there is always confusion as to why there is no notification.

How to enable the npc grenades to do Building Damage ?

Can you give us a delay of time to make sure that activated locked crates can surely be looted?

By now it happens that when the overall time of the event is already under the time of a locked crate, the crate will just disappear with the event before it opened.

Would be great if the activation of the locked crate would make the event last longer.

As long as the locked crate needs to open +1 minute at least.

Thank you.

Yes I agree this would be a nice additional feature.

what about this option?
"The event will not end if there are players nearby [true/false]"

I don't know what "nearby" means in this case.

I think if players did not manage to activate the crate in time it's ok if the event stops.

But if they do it they should be rewarded with it.

Guys, sorry, I made a mistake in the update. In the latest version, everything should work

Updated, but still throwing errors.  Using Carbon framework.

My map is NewDawn and before the update 2.3.4 everything was fine. Now this new update tank crashes. Sometimes the tank will drive away from convoy line. Convoy sometimes stops halfway and won't move.  Can this get fixed please.  Here is another issue I am having. Convoy stops too soon before the bubble.

I'm having issues creating and storing custom routes.

The /convoyrootstart command seems to work, placing me in vehicle to map route.

The /convoyrootsave Route1 command ends the mapping and places me out of the vehicle, but nothing is saved to the config .json file.

What are the exact commands and the order they need to be ran in to create and save custom routes?  Please provide examples.

Thank you. 

The the command to save the route posts as if its working, but nothing is saved to the .json file.

I should have 3 routes saved:

outer1
outer2
outer3

Adem thank you sir for the quick turnaround on the update. All seems to be working.

Are you looking in the Convoy Data json ? That is where the routes should be saved.

Yes, thank you, I found it in \data\Convoy.json and not in the main \configs\Convoy.json.  I think I have it figured out now.  The semantics were getting me. 

When you start logging the route info driving the car, it automatically captures the pathing data, but I was not understanding where this data was saved and how you could add multiple routes to a preset.

I think the way it works is as follows.

/convoyrootstart    - will drop you into a vehicle to start driving the route you want to map for pathing
/convoyrootsave presetname  - This will save the route data you just collected into a preset in the data\Convoy.json file.

If you repeat this process and capture a different route and save it to the same presetname it will add another possible route to that preset in the data\Convoy.json file.

I was confused about how to get multiple routes into the same 'Preset' because there seemed to be no setting for 'Preset.'  The only setting in the main Convoy.json file is :

"Custom route name": "outer1",

In my opinion, this would be more clear if this was labeled "Custom Preset name" and the documentation was clear about how the route data is saved to a 'Preset' and not to a specific route.
