Dynamic Monuments 1.0.2

great idea, just ike building sites. But sadly after my experience with building sites its a NO for me.  They are difficult to place and unless something has changed here  i dont expect anything different.
I also asked you to add an option to refund players sites and nothing. Great job tho looks nice and with a lot of potential. Im all for the dynamic plugins.

I've been working on the respawn system. Now the player is shown information about why he cannot place the monument.
Well, it became easier to find a location for the monument spawn. After a couple of days of testing on this plugin, I will migrate this system to BuildingSites.

I can't put any monument

It requires NPCSpawn and does have a data file for placement for them

Very nice work team Adem and Gruber, I really enjoy using Building Sites,  can't wait to get this one next!
The Npc Spawn touch looks like the chef's kiss on this one.

please fill this out for us, we're just server owners and not coders, so we never know the correct format for these things

"Entities for respawn": [

{

"Prefab name": "assets/content/structures/excavator/prefabs/diesel_collectable.prefab",

"Position": "(-1.392221, 6.01622, 3.147325)",

"Regular Npcs": []

This is why we typically recommend having values pre-filled as it's impossible to know without knowing the structure of the class. I'll help in this case though. Static NPCs in this case, is a Hashset of NpcPresetLocationConfig:

public string presetName { get; set; }
public string navMeshPresetName { get; set; }
public string position { get; set; }

Knowing it's a list of that class, we can build an example entry:

"Static NPCs": [
  {
    "presetName".
    "navMeshPresetName".
    "position"
  },
  {
    "presetName2".
    "navMeshPresetName2".
    "position2"
  }
],

The structure for Regular Npcs is the exact same, it's a Hashset of NpcPresetLocationConfig. I have no clue what any of these values do, but if you do, you should know how to fill it in. I imagine this was done intentionally as it's not implemented yet. But wanted to share this in case you experience this in the future, so you know generally how to populate an empty list inside of a config or data file.

i'm dyslexic, even what you posted barely helps since idk if the preset name is shortname or entire prefab address, same goes for navmesh preset name, like what even is that? i gotta go look for nav mesh profiles or something? and third, even if i knew that's where the positioning goes, i don't even know the correct XYZ format, or how many digits each position uses, etc etc

Just a heads up. All the problems resolved and everything works after server restart.

Silly question - in the zip file an Images folder is inside the DynamicMonuments folder. Does that stay there or should the images go in the data/Images folder ?

Hi. NPCs are located in the 5 most difficult locations where there are card readers.

No. the Images folder is here:

zip/DynamicMonuments/en/data/DynamicMonuments/Images

It just seems like the worng location but given what kind of plugin this is maybe that is where the folder belongs.

Hello,

I absolutely love the idea of this plugin. What features, if any, are you planning on adding to it over the coming weeks and months? Like integrating with AlphaLoot and so forth. Having NPC\Scientists built-in to the plugin automatically is really what I'm hoping for. I don't want to have to add thot stuff manually. If you spawn in the monuments mid-wipe, do they stay in that location the rest of the wipe? Or do the monuments despawn after a preset amount of time like your other event plugins (convoy, armored train, etc.) Assuming they all have loot or keycard puzzle rooms that reset or respawn after a default amount of time, like regular monuments? Thank you!

The location is correct

Alpha loot is already built into it.

There are also NPCs in the most difficult 5 locations.

AlphaLoot is already integrated for it. You can use specific presets to roll the loot.

From my tests, the monuments stay in position for the rest of the wipe like normal monuments.

And you can configure how often the Loot respawns.

"Recreate locations on every plugin restart [true/false]": false,
With this option, you can respawn monuments every time the plugin is reloaded

This is a fantastic idea; people have been waiting for someone to figure this out for years. 

I can't use it

This error indicates that there is a conflict between the Profiler and StackModifier plugins on the CanStackItem hook. Both are trying to control whether an item can be stacked or not, which is causing a conflict.

This plugin is not involved in the conflict.
