Thanks!
I went to Gen 2 in the morning early yesterday and mods weren’t right, so I decided to configure settings and fire up a local single player game on the new Lost World map to try it out.
It took me a little while to get the settings where I wanted, and added a bunch of mods we like, but I got it working well and had a good time! Settling on the beach in what was supposed to be an easy starting area got me near a rex, tek rex, multiple raptors and even an alpha raptor wandering nearby. I still haven’t died yet, though!
A couple questions for any of you server/mod experts:
I tried to increase the harvest item health, which I thought would get you more hits per node. However, I still only get 2 handfuls of berries from each plant. I did also increase player damage for harvesting, so maybe they canceled each other out and I am just getting much more per grab, which seems possible.
Another problem I have is I can’t seem to get the night time speed increase to work. I set it in the configuration UI in game, then back out and in again and it resets to 1 every time.
I can’t seem to get the setting right to enable picking up structures and items placed indefinitely. It always defaults to the 30 second timer. I set the value to 0.0 in the ini files, but haven’t solved that one yet.
The one that is bugging me the most, however, is the dino stamina drain seems super out of control at default. I tried changing it from 1.0 to 0.2, but it has no effect. I even added it manually to the ini file. It doesn’t help that I have low level Pteras so far, but it would be super helpful to be able to adjust it some. I had a level 150 Ptera knocked out and at 80% tamed, but a rex wandered thru and ate him!
But, with all that, I am having a blast! I managed to fix many settings, including increasing stack sizes without a mod and have a bunch enabled properly, I think.
