Puzzle Points 1.6.3

Features

• Reward players as they swipe their puzzle cards.
• Rewards can be anything, like scrap, economics, and server rewards
• Quality checks ensuring a good card swipe (correct card reader, powered, door not already open, etc).
• Broadcasts card swipe to the server, including player and monument with grid location (configurable).
• Provides configurable cooldown period (for same card & monument) to prevent door spamming.
• Easily add any item as a reward type.

Adding Your Own Reward

Below is an example item entry that you would put in, if you want to give players 100 low grade when they swipe a blue card.   You can also use the reward_item_id if you know the item id.  Only one (shortname or id) can be empty.  The name is for your benefit, to have something human-readable to anchor onto when viewing the config file.  You can see in the eg. config file below how the Swipe Rewards list is formed.
