It becomes complicated enough with how you should configure each (in my opinion, properly) that really the best option is to use different presets intended to do different things. Their AI might get improvements in the future that will help with what you're referring to but currently it's just so much easier to mix enemies up whenever possible. They are usually going to use guns when you give them the choice, I mean, wouldn't you? Would you join the Mad Mapper Discord and open a ticket there? You can tag me and KpucTaJl the developer there. Will help you sort that out. -
"Minimum numbers of items": 1, "Maximum numbers of items": 3, You have a min max of 1-3 items, and you also have those items all set at 50% chance of dropping. The probability that you will only get one item, is smaller than that you will get 2 or more. The question is if they drop, but 50% is actually quite high probability to be honest. I would consider something lower than 50%, as you need to understand the probability a bit better if you go larger numbers. This is one way to achieve what I think you might be trying to do. Min max is 1, I left it at 50% chance for each, it will choose one or the other whichever drops first. "Own loot table (if the loot table type is 1 or 5)": { "Minimum numbers of items": 1, "Maximum numbers of items": 1, "Use minimum and maximum values? [true/false]": true, "List of items": [ { "ShortName": "explosive.timed", "Minimum": 1, "Maximum": 1, "Chance [0.0-100.0]": 50.0, "Is this a blueprint? [true/false]": false, "SkinID (0 - default)": 0, "Name (empty - default)": "" }, { "ShortName": "ammo.rocket.basic", "Minimum": 1, "Maximum": 2, "Chance [0.0-100.0]": 50.0, "Is this a blueprint? [true/false]": false, "SkinID (0 - default)": 0, "Name (empty - default)": "" } ] }, "Item Multipliers": { "explosive.timed": 1.0 } }, -
Yes you can combine boss abilities. Cooldown is -1 for each and it says that will disable the ability, so they need a timer. Both are disabled above. I recommend a decent timer otherwise their appearance is somewhat pointless, they have to despawn though as well so maybe add 10-15 seconds or more to the "Ability Cooldown Time" and use "Despawn time NPCs" as where you want it to end. Also as was pointed out, 0.1 seconds is very fast, so they don't get to do very much and might be a little too fast for the human eye haha. I would go more NPCs too! "NPC Settings" needs not be null so let us know if you end up having issues that might be structure based like that and we can review it. I would come to the Mad Mapper Discord and create a ticket if you have further issues with it and want to get them sorted. Thank you. 0.1 second even. -
That works.

Thank you for that last message, I was going to ask but did not want to assume. From the sound of it somehow they were able to build close enough to launch to be within the attack distance given by the config option for this NPC is allowing him to target the base that he can see or defensive item and attack it. I can help you remove that specific NPC, I can also help explain where to look for parameters to change for them, or rocket launchers can simply be removed. I'd recommend coming to the Mad Mapper Discord and create a ticket there. Reloading a specific profile will work for some changes, but changes that occur outside of commands generally will not reload and will require a whole plugin reload. So if you manually are changing things in the config, this command will not help. Thank you for sharing though because it is helpful if you are making other changes instead and reloading the profile for those smaller changes. this is perfect. This was what helped me sort it out. They are attacking their building by being within the NPC's sight. If you don't mind creating a ticket in Mad Mappers Discord we could sort this out no problem, there's a few ways to do it too. Can remove that guy completely, take the launchers away, change the distance he can attack from. If you want to give it a go any of those options will work.

What loot option do you have selected? If you have the time I would recommend coming to the Mad Mapper Discord and opening a ticket to be honest might be faster back and forth and easier to sort that otherwise.
-
You can use the one that is there by default as an example. You can add multiple as well, and it will pull a whole loot pull from that container. Does that make sense @CaptainNebulous?
-
If you have not yet, you should consider creating a ticket in the Mad Mapper Discord server so that we can more quickly respond and review information including configs, videos, or anything else. I think we might get lucky and one plugin is the only thing we need to deal with that is affecting multiple damage related scenarios for you. Can you give an example for when the error is occurring? What is the other activity in which this error was found? You may be misunderstanding PveMode. It is used to lock the loot to the person or team who does the most damage for BetterNpc. It does not just automatically block damage for anything it is used as API for other plugins. It can block damage within event plugins, by going into the config for that event and setting the configuration the way you would like it. There still is damage until an event owner is designated. There are other plugins like TruePVE that can restrict damage further. PvP zones can be created inside the event areas for example with something like this. But the other specifics like this I will allow you to consider what you're looking for. If you have questions about PveMode just let me know. -
My suggestion would be to join the Mad Mapper Discord and create a ticket there. None of this is normal behavior so surely there is a reason you are having these issues. We can more quickly review your specific issues and investigate how they are coming to be. We need to be able to reproduce issues or diagnose them to be of more help. -
I would teleport to those areas and investigate a bit to begin to narrow down which NPCs they are and why they are having problems spawning there. That should allow you to explain which NPCs they are. What map is this happening on? -
What version of NpcSpawn are you using? -
Are you in the Mad Mapper Discord? I think maybe something is missing or broken in the config. Try making a copy of it then deleting it from the server, reload the plugin again and see if you still have this issue.
-
Reload the plugin and show me everything you get in response from your server console.
-
Did this help?
-
Sledge is an example and killfeed is being shown blocked both directions.
-
@GamingHQ { "KillerType": "Sledge", "VictimType": "Player", "DamageType": "*", "Messages": [ "" ] }, { "KillerType": "Player", "VictimType": "Sledge", "DamageType": "*", "Messages": [ "" ] } As an example you could empty out the message for anything coming from a bunch of Sledge NPCs. I would just remove their messages this way "" instead for whatever NPCs you wish to remove from chat.
-
@Robert Stevens you were showing a chinook leaving the map and the entities all being destroyed as it left the map. example.cmd looks like an error from copying and pasting or leaving text in an example field. It's not a command and should be removed from wherever the command was being submitted.
-
I think you mean the CS file. It is included as a link in a few different places @NadeMurdoXx. Have you not installed the plugin?
-
I would say that TimedExecute is a very ideal format in my opinion, once set up initially if it works to your liking then you don't have to touch it for quite some time again and it will continue to do what it is scheduled to do. You also mentioned with BetterSay as with some other plugins these alerts can be made pretty noticeable which I like, agree on, and also find it worth it @thepiercedweirdo. Understand that my main reason for suggesting these things is so that you have an immediate answer to your question and thought. I forward and organize all ideas for KpucTaJl and always have him look for himself at suggestions like this, and we communicate very well and try to organize all ideas. This is a human method so it has flaws things are missed forgotten or not able to be done sometimes. At some point he likes to spend time creating new things. Often though after making a large update to an existing plugin we get many suggestions again immediately after releasing it. I only say this in the developers defense and because he would never say it himself he is very proud and is a hard worker. This is just something to consider that I see as a third party and would like to voice as his lead and sole support. When I can see a solution that doesn't require more work and updates for an existing plugin, I like to suggest and work with those whenever possible so that he can go through his large library and to rotate through them, while also finding time to work on new projects as well. All ideas are shared and considered but some may take months to come back around and get worked on. I only want to make sure you have options now as this plugin was updated recently and it will be at least a little while before it will be given new features again. I do appreciate your understanding. That final decision is with KpucTaJl anyway I can only speak for him to such an extent and I will allow him to speak for himself as a final decision. I hope that's a more thorough answer to your question. I've recently considered and will have a better method in his and my communication gathering and sharing of community requests and ideas as well as our internal plans and ideas so this will help to make sure ideas do not slip through the cracks. It is not to say that every idea that we hear will get approved eventually, but all will be considered and any that are able and make sense to myself the developer and with the whole community in mind, then I am sure it is just a matter of time.
-
Of course, please let us know either way. Hopefully it works for you.
-
Just in case this doesn't get noticed or responded two fast enough, I would say the Mad Mapper Discord would be my first suggested stop and otherwise the Carbon Discord would be a good stop or resource as well to ask this. The Discussion tabs on the site are not usually terribly busy, steady but not busy if that makes sense.

Harbor Event was given a very large update and the 2.1.1 notes warn that making a copy of, and deleting the old config is necessary. You may have upgraded past this version without realizing it or noticing the notes. What version of NpcSpawn and Convoy do you have?
-
Can do a countdown and keep showing the message every minute as an example for the last few minutes. With that much experience @thepiercedweirdo I have faith that you would be able to communicate this to your player base or explain it or to set it up to warn them enough. Start the timer at 10 minutes and then maybe when you get to 30 seconds you add a chat command every 5 seconds. If the players don't see it, well that's kind of on them at that point. Just an idea, at some point the players need to pay attention, some things end when you don't want them to, sometimes you're on Oil Rig a bit late and it starts leaving the island and you just started hacking the crates, hey this is Rust!
