  1. Youve missed 1 of the steps to clear everything... you can also delete those 2 files & folder from the server & then copy mine over...sounds like the old map is still cached....
  2. Just as the title says, Been messing with this for a few hours, Even tried changing its map save location but not getting any were, Game starts but when checking the save folder theres no actual map files so when you join its instant but then errors cos there no map to place the person lol Server is running a Custom UI as well as Custom game code but ive tried this with & without ......
  3. If I remember Correct Ive added the Decay line into the Json itself yes , I do this on all my maps by default but ud have to check to be 100% sure.... & this is the map you should run in my opinion https://www.survivalservers.com/forum/index.php?/topic/6882-2x2-ridgeway-19-explorer-notes-power-stones-kraken/ This is the newest 2x2 ive made with everything I know.....
  4. Stop server, Log in Via FTP, Download my file, Open it up onto your desktop, drag the 2 files & the folder & drop them into the shootergame folder...... then select homeserver in the checkbox...... & clean cmd clean mod folder clean save folder & restart.....
  5. Yeah I know, Was just quoting so it explains it needs to be in the Custom start config.... It should be random if left long enough..
  6. Subbota If you change the advanced launch parameters on the A2 server to always spawn the fountain of youth I've confirmed that it will show up on the southeast island. It's in a cave near a shipwreck on the southern side of the island.
  7. Its spawn is 100% Random, I would suggest turning the ageing off given these are custom maps & theres NO real way for me to know if that is even spawning correctly.... You only see it if your older than 90, Then it spawns on the same PVE Island for 48 hours at which point it switches to a new Island...
  8. The Endboss requires an entire Grid to itself so nope.... Only way to have that would be to run a 2x2 or modify this so the 2nd is empty but then your gonna struggle for space cos Cay_EE_PVE is HUGE & takes nearly a whole grid to itself too.....
  9. If im correct the Fountain of youth can spawn on any PVE island as it rotates every so many days..... Also wheat tends to be on the PVE Islands but there are a few that also have it, Best thing is to Wiki that ....
  10. You can Rename Islands when creating the Json map BUT this renames all files so you will no longer be able to load any map with an original name & vice versa... You can Use Disco zones to name Islands which is the best way... Resources & animals are coded im afraid.... I myself & others have tried over writing spawns but as of yet ive not been able to get it to work, Only way to change this is with the Dev kit...
  11. Epic spawns have 2 over rides, 1) Inside the Epic spawns within the Json edit field, 2) When setting a default Weather system there are built in to the code..... Its been a while since I made this Map but im pretty sure I select centre grids as Equa & the rest a different one each.... Im using the same code on mine & have seen, Squids, Mermaids & the Gentle whale, Havent seen the Monster version yet but not sure if there deeper...
  12. Yeah those are my settings & A recent Patch messed that up which is why some people have the Fog constantly even if they move around the map.... The setting is correct although you could try 1.0 as this is what may of changed, I havent bothered to test it as I like the Fog & not being able to see till youve explored
  13. Custom made Map 1x2 as requested, Ive tried to make a standard starter Map that has as many resources as possible without stopping game play or filling up the map with too many Islands, Total missing Resources is around 17% but nothing that's game breaking due to current patches from Official, Also map is missing the Penguin but everything else is their... First Zone 0,0 HomeServer Npc ships have been Nerfed by 50%, That is Speed, Damage & turning ability !! Multiple Trader routes with multiple Traders ID's !! All Islands are renamed according to their ID's (Official Note Indexes) !! 100% Animals & 100% Resources !! Floatsam quality has be multiplied by around 15x Heat&Cold (IE Severe) Has been Tamed down ShieldHorns added to Starter Island (Experimental) Ive no way to know if this has worked... Tropical Weather set Second Zone 0,1 FloatingSam = 20x Weather Affects dropped to around 50% of original All Explorer Notes spread out over 2 Grids + 4 Extra (So Islands are renamed) Temperate Weather set View Of Map Download Link https://tinyurl.com/yxqtgpyx Updates will go here I WOULD ADVISE A FRESH INSTALL But if you wish to try first thats cool, Let me know how it goes !!
  14. I think its possible to do either or both But you would do better to utilize both servers as 1 with a proper map dedicated to having as much as possible to explore rather than 2 default maps.... or even 2 separate custom ones.... Also I think its possible to run any large grid, Take a Custom 2x2 & only activate the 2 grids you wish, But again it would be better to build a custom 2 grid map....

Npc ships have been Nerfed by 50%, That is Speed, Damage & turning ability !! Multiple Trader routes with multiple Traders ID's !! All Islands are renamed according to their ID's (Official Note Indexes) !! 99.9% Animals & 80% Resources !! Floatsam quality has be multiplied by around 20x Heat&Cold (IE Severe) Has been Tamed down ShieldHorns added to Starter Island (Experimental) Ive no way to know if this has worked... View Of Map Download Link http://tinyurl.com/y5686ega Ive made this Map as a 1x1 with all the current knowledge I have rather than try to modify the older ones which people maybe using.. I will of course fix any errors that anyone finds & posts... Keep in mind that with 7 PVE Islands + Ghostship + 18 Official explorer notes ive had to add multiple Disco Zones to Islands so Explore to find them all
  16. Database Cache....... Everything that happens is backed up Via the Reddis.DB file as well as the games Cache, Glad its sorted....
  17. Ok I will say 1st off NOTHING in this game is 100% set, You should be OK changing just the quest code BUT I have tested this 4 times & 1 of the times caused a crash so im afraid it would be a case of Backing everything up before you try.... Again moving Islands has the same affect, It should just work providing nothing has been built, No claim flags are down, NO Boats are there, Again its a hit n miss with Atlas & id probably suggest doing a Backup first.... Kraken requires an Entire grid to itself in order to work & even then its Iffy at best.... Deepsea Trench is an Official thing so should just spawn unless its an actual Island in which case i will be modifying my maps to include it..... Crabs they are just spawns which when applied will auto happen... The biggest issue right now are the small bugs in the Editor as this is also Alpha which is why my maps despite the time put in can & probably will have mistakes... All I can do is take time to fix issues as & when they are found knowing that in most cases it would require a fresh start, Thats not something I can fix which is a shame but I think most issues arise from the Core files not so much the maps...
  18. Thats a Bug in the game as Epic spawns dont spawn Cyclops.... Not sure what to say haha.... Shame we cant change them for Gentle whales... Oooh If you upgraded your map without restarting then it will still think the old Islands are there ? Could it be that Have removed Old file & Info so no one else installs the old version....
  19. Can you place a detailed explanation of this method for other please, Thanks, I will add it to future updates with Credit... Rain Freq is Customdatas2 change the number to a higher value say 1.35 which will be just under half that of Official.. RainIntervalMultiplier 1.35 I wouldnt put it any higher than 1.50 which would be 50% less....
  20. https://discordapp.com/channels/526792523310563339/527288628527759360 This is the Discord group, May be an idea to join as they do have people in most areas of this... As for deleting it is the ONLY way to rmeove any issues as even recopying everything still keeps the Cache.... I am sorry it not working properly for you, Bit of a Bitch that it doesnt just work lol.....
  21. Yeah the Discord im on to do with Map building & the game mentions this alot, Its a Reddis database error, Some people have had to reset there database in order to fix the Issue as its a Core issue with the game itself from what I understand... Deleting the Character save wont be enough as the ReddisDB file holds all that info in Cache..... Its a pain in the ass cos some people have run the maps perfectly without issues & some the odd 1 or 2 have had issues transitioning between grids.....
  22. People on Official have had all sorts happen after the last patch assuming you updated to the lastest, Im not really sure what would cause this as the only thing on Grid 1,1 is the Kraken I believe ? Unless their last patch changed something about the Endboss level.... That grid has a set SubLevel=EndBoss so the game knows it is suppose to spawn & no one has said there are any issues so ive no idea until someone else figures it out.... Ill have a look over the Map just to make sure nothing is missing but I dont think I made any mistakes as its only a case of adding Endboss into the config... Ive checked over the Map file & could only see a single Txt error which wouldnt affect the map Only 1 of the epic spawns in Region 1 which would just not allow them to spawn... Couldnt see any other errors at all... Download each Json & Server Json from each server & check to make sure there seemless ports are correct , I cant see why they wouldnt be as SS injects all that on Boot which is why when copying over moddified files you get crashes on the server.... Grid 1,1 has 2 Islands & The endboss, Ive heard people saying you can add islands to this grid but it will force all spawns to stop but it shouldnt cause a crash thats got to do with Ports, Reddis database & seemless ports.... which SS injects so ive no clue as to why sorry... Not sure why its working from the other 3 grids, Thats also confusing cos all 4 should crash if its the map itself... Put in a support ticket as they will be able to check error logs & such...
  23. Is anyone else on there top end Fiber connection ? Im getting Approx 300Mbit daily yet when trying to populate servers im getting inconsistent Pings...
