Cool concept. This would be interesting on a wind turbine, generator, solar panels as well.

Thanks, that's the plan, just got the idea with the water wheel first , as  found it a little underwhelming outside of vanilla gameplay

Can others hear the players boombox?

Yes

Did you have a chance to check this?  Tried using the provided API but it acts as if didnt exist - specifically OnSkillsXPEarned

This is my test method, with Skills plugin correctly referenced 

        private object OnSkillsXPEarned(BasePlayer player, float amount)
        {
            if (player == null) return null;
            Puts($"OnSkillsXPEarned fired: {player?.displayName} amount={amount}");
            if (amount <= 0f) return null;

            if (_ignoreEarnHookOnce.Remove(player.userID))
                return null;

            if (!TryGetActiveTimedBooster(player.userID, out var booster))
                return null;

            var bonus = amount * (booster.Percent / 100f);
            if (bonus <= 0f) return null;

            _ignoreEarnHookOnce.Add(player.userID);
            Skills?.Call("API_AddPlayerXP", player.userID, bonus);

            if (_config.NotifyBonusEarned)
                Player.Message(player,
                    $"<color=#b6ff7a>Bonus XP earned:</color> <color=#ffffff>{bonus:0.##}</color>",
                    null, _config.ChatIcon);

            return null;
        }

Tested with bikedrivers, and we had someone test with cardrivers,  unfortunately the current addition does not work. 

I highly recommend shooting @Karuza a message to confirm how the vehicles are initialized and started. 

 

if you have Convoy (from adem),  there is also an example there how to add support

Hi walkinrey 

Did you ever have time to look at this again ?

Edits to the main descriptions dont take effect. You have to manually edit a lang file on the server to change the main description on the item.

Thanks, i get it. Lang files normally don't get updated for existing keys. Would need to delete the lang and reload,  or edit only the specific entry.

I havent really thought whether there's a good way of handling this, considering you may have several languages configured. I'll see what i can do for next patch

Hello, I just bought this plugin and Im noticing a heavy problem with it.

-I have noticed that item descriptions will not change from my test descriptions I had first inputted into main description. Even after multiple edits/deletions/recreations of the custom item, or plugin unload/reload.

  

show me what you mean

so with the config provided, the guards are spawning but there is no loot respawning at all, strange because the first version the loot was fine but the guards wouldnt spawn, then the second to last update killed the whole thing

Evening, any word on the crates and loot not respawning with a fix. or was that address already

Tested the respawning again in the last few days, both on active pop plugin and an empty local server - the loot does respawn on timer as expected.

Note it's best to do any testing in Noclip rather than vanish. I noticed some stuff like NPCs don't network at all until you exit vanish so it may seem like they're not there.

The CH47Fix doesn't appear to be working as intended for me. They get stuck on the edge of the map. I grabbed the latest build, no luck so far. Is this a known issue?  

Thanks in advance for all your time and attention..

 

 

 

 

Ps: I pulled the plugin until this is resolved.

At the moment not able to replicate the problem, the ch47 have been successfully cleaned for the last few days, but i will continue to keep an eye on this.

so, so what should i set it for lets say, i want the loot and npcs to reset every three hours, since it looks like the deep sea will be open forever and loot wont reset until 10mins to close time

The respawning is per object, eg if you loot a crate, that specific crate will respawn after the time you configure.

Just curious, is it normal for the deepsea timer to now say 2760:14:30 for 2760 hrs, 14mins. I noticed yesterday is started with 2777:0:0

Looks good

9999999 seconds is 2770+ hours. If you didnt close deepsea yesterday, the timer will keep counting down until  "AlwaysOpen - Refill When Below Seconds"

When I keep Deep Sea mode always enabled, players park their ships in Floating City and leave them there to stay in the safe zone, which effectively creates a non-raidable base. What can be done about this?

This sounds like vanilla behavior. I recommend submitting a report to facepunch (F7 key) but will think about some built in restrictions.

Hello,

I wanted to congratulate you on the plugin. It honestly works very well and has been extremely useful to me. You can really see the work and dedication behind it.

I would like to make a small suggestion: currently the commands are executed through chat, but would it be possible to add the option to execute them from the console as well? It would be great for me to be able to automate them and schedule them at specific times using console commands.

Thank you very much for your work.
Best regards.

Hi M.Frutos,  sorry i missed this for current update but will be added for you.

I had a question for you in terms of vehicles, I have it configured for all vehicles enabled to cross into the Deepsea.

I also use this plugin on my server: 
 

They hit an invisbile wall and get bounced back when trying to enter the Deepsea. 

 

This one might be a problem, because it is not technically a vehicle as far as the game is concerned.

Seems more like items attached and surrounding a kayak for visuals, possibly the parented items blocking entrance with collision. I would recommend checking with Adem,  I have a feeling he would already be thinking how to change this behavior. 

In case of karuza's vehicles, despite consisting of many different prefabs,  they are done in a way so the game considers the whole thing to be a vehicle rather than  individual parts, they even get their own unique prefab path, hence they go through the portal just fine

Just now, ManOWar said:

Okay, thank you for the reply! Sorry, not sure what you mean by vanishing through the Deep Sea portal. Are there multiple ways to enter the Deep Sea other than just traveling out there and crossing through?

Hey, no problem. I meant if you enter the deepsea while in noclip

Mounted on vehicle doesnt seem to have this behavior so all good there

Okay, that's awesome, thank you! I guess if you're flying, you're not asleep after the transition finishes? Have you tested with anyone else on the mini with you? Curious if they're asleep and fall out of the mini.

Tested with vanilla minis, karuza helis and planes . Tbh i only notice the sleep if vanishing through the deepsea portal

I'm getting zero patrol boats spawning in the deep ocean.  Config file says there should be 6.

Write /deepsea close  then wait for it to open and check again

they dont show in the map so will need to look around or teleport to ptboat ptboat.deepsea   (in F1 console  teleportany ptboat.deepsea )

The plugin does not currently affect vanilla scientists or ghost ships. However it behaves in vanilla, will be the same. 

I am however looking at options to allow respawns if possible.

Even after reading the explanation, I still couldn't understand what the following settings specifically do.
I've left it as is for now, but if you don't mind, I'd appreciate it if you could tell me what effect it has.

"Set DeepSea Enabled Flag (restart may be required)": false,

"DeepSea Enabled": true

 

I probably over complicated this setting,   but here's the explainer: 
"DeepSea Enabled"  =  Do you want Deep Sea ON or OFF?
"Set DeepSea Enabled Flag" = This is permission for the plugin to change it, eg if you change setting and reload ^
 

If you want deepsea to be enabled (its default on all servers anyway, unless other plugin or server convar disabling), you would set true/true

If you want deepsea to be disabled,  set false/true

if i have it set to AlwaysOpen will the ships still spawn ? 

 

Everything spawns when the deep sea is generated. 

I'm looking into possibilities for respawning if they're looted. Already succeeded in having the island crates respawned. Hopefully can do something for ships too.

Will just like to say I love this plugin but have some questions. Players are not seeing the Ghost Ships. I have set it to 6? And will it be possible to have Allow Building In Deep Sea as a permission? 

The ghost ships are most likely there, but not visible.

Try disabling deepsea,  reloading plugin then /deepsea close ,  after few minutes enable again, and run /deepsea open

But i think you might be experiencing a game bug or known issue with Circular Networking. Similar to invisible patrol helis.  If you have the circular networking plugin, remove it. If you use Carbon,  disable circular networking 

Hopefully some more game patches coming soon.

I set "Open Time Seconds" so it was open for 2 hours. After that, it closes and 5 minutes later, it opens again. When it opens, the server lags real bad. For now I just disabled it from closing and refresh the loot every hour.

Looks like both closing and opening is not very performant in general. The plugin levarages the vanilla behavior for opening and closing.  There's a few complaints about this already with Facepunch.

Most servers are seeing these spikes which can last up to few seconds.  For me when testing,  i notice a slight drop for about 1-4 seconds for both open/close. This can vary by server performance, map size, how much stuff you're spawning in deep sea. But even with minimal content it does that. 

There should be some hotfixes coming from facepunch over the next days including for other bugs. This update definitely wasn't ready to go.

Im gonna keep an eye on things and if there is something that can be further improved on the plugin side, I will definitely include in updates, though at the moment best explanation is the classic 'Blame Facepunch'

I set the deep sea refresh rate to every 2 hours but when it refreshes, it really lags the server. Any chance this will be optimized or is there a setting I can adjust to make it better?

Refresh as in,  closes existing and opens new deep sea?

Hello,
Does the new "Island Loot Crate Refill" just respawn crates on islands? Does it also effect ships & nodes? If not could we also please get an option for those if applicable.

At the moment just crates. Will work on anything else that is possible for next updates.

Does the plugin have any control over the loot spawning / respawning in the Deepsea?

I would like to set it to always open but from what i have read, the loot on the ghost ships and islands only respawns after the deepsea reopens. 

Will look into that. If necessary, will do some spawn logic.

Let me join your error club please 

Why no error for me! I feel like im missing out :<

Switch to carbon = no problem 

Fine for me. #carbon

hi 

im trying to add one of karuza's vechiles in the shop. 

but when you purchas it, it is spawend in the center of the map 

"

Look rotation viewing vector is zero

spawned "warbird[129498174]" at (0.00, 0.00, 0.00)

spawned warbird[129498174] at (0.00, 0.00, 0.00)

"

is there a way to changes this 

How are you adding it to the shop?  I use the vehicles in the shop, using the item option. Player receives vehicle item, and can spawn it wherever they want.

Is this a ripoff of the free minigunreload plugin by VisEntities?

Hi tikomatura,

I hope you are well

This was written independently of any other plugin. It may or may not have the same or similar functionality, i've not seen the plugin so cannot confirm what/if there is a difference. This one's been around for some time now even before listing on CF.

I can only say it works and like my other plugins still actively supported and improved where possible.

Congratulations on your latest update sir 
 

I hope to try it out later this week

Anyone wanna help me get these working? 
I have them on a custom map, when i load in-game the option to mount is showing but it wont let me mount?
 

These prefabs are just for decoration, the mounting won't really work (its too tight around the seating area). I should really remove the mount points to not confuse.

But i think you might be looking for the moving/mountable ones in which case they're here - https://karuza.dev/store/product/5fa495d7-f1ed-4320-bcb6-f59398743590

Holy heck. This is great! Would love to get this!

My rust server is basically littered with custom skinned items
This would make my life so much easier

So quick question:
How difficult would it be to add existing custom items into the manager?

Hey @ChardaZAR  

Not difficult at all. If you have all your custom SkinIDs to hand, maybe 1 minute to add each item.

tl;dr for a basic item:
open the item manager, 
input a shortname you would like that item to have
input the parent item it will be based on (for non usable items, recommend shortname RHIB)
Populate the SkinID, Displayname, Description

If you use these items in any lootables (e.g. loot from events), you'd need to update it there to use the new simpler format (only shortname). Example from a loot table:

Loot format before changing to your new custom items:
 

        "List of items": [
          {
            "ShortName": "sticks",
            "Minimum": 1,
            "Maximum": 2,
            "Chance [0.0-100.0]": 5.0,
            "Is this a blueprint? [true/false]": false,
            "SkinID (0 - default)": 4535234653,
            "Name (empty - default)": "Screwdriver"
          },
          {
            "ShortName": "sticks",
            "Minimum": 1,
            "Maximum": 2,
            "Chance [0.0-100.0]": 5.0,
            "Is this a blueprint? [true/false]": false,
            "SkinID (0 - default)": 453342345,
            "Name (empty - default)": "Screws"
          },
        ]

Loot format after changing to your new custom items: (now only need to put in the shortname which you've configured)

        "List of items": [
          {
            "ShortName": "screwdriver",
            "Minimum": 1,
            "Maximum": 2,
            "Chance [0.0-100.0]": 5.0,
            "Is this a blueprint? [true/false]": false,
            "SkinID (0 - default)": 0,
            "Name (empty - default)": ""
          },
          {
            "ShortName": "screws",
            "Minimum": 1,
            "Maximum": 2,
            "Chance [0.0-100.0]": 5.0,
            "Is this a blueprint? [true/false]": false,
            "SkinID (0 - default)": 0,
            "Name (empty - default)": ""
          },
        ]

will look into that, you dont really get a big angle to look up, and while using the boomboxes as part of plugins is not against TOS, some people seem to be spooked  

 

20 minutes ago, SlayersRust said:

Okay hopefully allowing access to the use of a BoomBox even if the item is not explicitly given to the player to hold but still access is allowed with facepunch tos. For now I will only allow players who have the Voice Props DLC Pack to be able to use this after verification to be safe.

The TOS only covers the DLC items. The static boombox is not part of the DLC pack - it's the same boombox you drop onto monuments in RustEdit, also used in other plugins you definitely have

39 minutes ago, tacman1981 said:

isnt the boombox a dlc item?

The boombox you can hold is a DLC item. 
This plugin uses static/prefab version of the boombox.
There is no boombox item given to the player.

does the boombox collide with anything while moving around/driving/flying? 

can you make the boombox on by default? as in players spawn with the boombox next to them instead of having to type /boombox?

Hi covfefe

Ive stripped collisions from the boombox so it ghosts through walls/rocks/terrain etc. 

Regarding on by default, I'll consider it for next update

Been watching this for a while, looks great
Dont use the Survial Arenas, but if we do - will be back for this  

By the way, that's a shame Naughty FP removed that oil tower prefab

Is only removed from RustEdit or is it a limitation by spawning in game where its removed ?
Manky want try find you replacement. Maybe there is a good alternative.

anyhow, you got me on discord or can dm here
- Manky been learning rustedit, uh ohhh
 

ye the prefab itself had the tower removed for some reason, both in edit and game. 

sadly without adding stuff to newguy's plugin there is a limit to which prefabs can be used for the arena so no alternative at the moment ;-;

otherwise i'd be making vehicle combat arenas 

This should 100% be optional. For now, im going back to old version of event without lootmanager.

II find it was easier to manage the loot from config than with this tool 

Tested with bikedrivers, and we had someone test with cardrivers,  unfortunately the current addition does not work. 

I highly recommend shooting @Karuza a message to confirm how the vehicles are initialized and started. 

if you have Convoy (from adem),  there is also an example there how to add support

Hi, did you ever have a chance to look at this? A lot of servers are now using Karuza's custom vehicles, it would be great if this plugin could be compatible,  as well as your bike drivers/cars and anything else you have with transport

If an item undergoes default repairs first and then uses plug-in economic repairs, it cannot be perfectly repaired.

The economy option repairs item to current max durability.  Vanilla repair always reduces max durability .

Will keep it in mind for future, maybe extra cost to restore max durability. We'll see.
