Need help with levels and experience changes

Recommended Posts

So ive been trying to change player levels to be a max of level 200 and dinos to be a max of 250 (thats with the normal 120 wild, 59 perf tame, and extra lvls thru experience). Ive seem to run into an odd issue where everytime i set lvls up to 200 with players and save/restart server it just auto resets to default settings. Ive tried all other settings without changing levels and it works fine.

 

when i get the exp to lvl 100 i start doing the experience req. in incriments of 50k.....so 2050,000 for lvl 101.....2100k for lvl 102....2150k for lvl 103 and so on and so forth. If level 199 ends with 7mill then i make lvl 200 take 8mill just as a final hard push.

 

After i go to OverrideMaxExperiencePointsPlayer=8000000

 

then i hit save/restart and once the server goes online i click on modify again and everything is reset

ive tried just player levels ryan, ive tried doing both dino and players, and no matter what it keeps resetting. Am i going over some kind of cap i dont know about ingame? is the a ceiling to experience? i heard soemone say they got to like 400 lvls for players so i know it cant be me asking for 200 is too much. ill do a quick write up of what i want all  my settings to be and post it in a few mins.

 

and the offset difficulty is already set to 3 which is what i hear the max is atm. I know i might only actually be 1 as ive seen conflicting reports on what it is on non official but either way mines on 3 and im already seeing wild lvl 120 dinos so i know that aspect is fine.

 

its adjust player levels so players can get to lvl 200 and dino levels so once tamed and fully leveled they can get to 250...those are my goals and no matter how i set those 2 items up it keeps reseting my control panel.

 

 

im still putting together screenshots of all my settings and will post when complete.

is my entire control pannel up until dino levels of which ive left the same...which is dino levels to 119 and 71400 experience

 

meaning this should be correct should it not?

 

OverrideMaxExperiencePointsPlayer=7800000

OverrideMaxExperiencePointsDino=71400

 

the only other things i changed after dino levels were

 

player oxygen set to 3

player food set to 2

player water set to 2

player weight set to 3

player speed set to .5 (half the speed)

tamed dino oxygen set to 3

Quetzalcoatlus set to .2 to increase their spawns

alpha raptors set to .2 to increase their spawns

plesi's set to .2 to increase their spawns

alpha carnos and giganto's set to .15 to slightly increase their spawns.

 

(btw you still dont have mosasaurus added into this option yet)

 

so i dont understand why everytime i launch under these options when i edit player levels it resets the control panel. Ive tried all these settings without touching player levels and it works fine. Do i need to have custom launch parameters checked off or am i missing something in my settings, etc. Ty in advance for any who help

On the OverrideMaxExperiencePointsPlayer part, you have the line of code in there instead of just the number.  Though tbh, I'm not sure which is actually the correct way, just bringing it up as something I spotted as I would imagine (and hope) that just a number goes there, not the code part.

 

As for offset difficulty, it's hard coded to 1 maximum, so anything over 1 is still 1, which is 4x the default difficulty and gives the lvl 120 Dinos.

 

Do you stop the server before entering any values?  Don't know if that matters, just seems likes good practice so that's what I always do.  Shut it down, wait 5-10 minutes before any restarts and havn't had issues yet but I'm sure my time will come :P

i set it to 1 and it still reset my entire configuration back to default after the server finished loading

This issue has been fixed. I do apologize for the wiping of the config, it was by mistake and not related to changing the Difficulty Offset.

ok so now it all saves properly and i tlook slike i can level higher than 100+ as a player so thats fixed......however i still cant seem to get dinos to lvl 250......i tame a wild 120 which after tame is 179 + the 56 levels thru exp is only 235.

 

i have added dino levels up to 250 and for some reason i cant get them past 235 still dispite following all the same rules i did for player experience.

Well you have this in your server config, which is not correct. It should just be a numeric value.

As for the dino issues, I took a look at the rest of your config and you don't have dinosaur levels configured either. If you are going to override the maximums, make sure it's the max value of the last dino level you want.

ok see i didnt know it was only supposed to be the value my bad. i was reading other posts and it seems like they thought the same so thats why i put it in. As for the dino levles im not sure what youre talking about because i have 250 levels input in the dino configuration area with the 250th taking a max of that 250000 experience points to ascertain.

 

going to run it now with just the values and maybe that will fix the command. Thank you for dealing with this issue i know it can be super frustrating dealing newbs who dont understand this shit like me lol.

ok......oddly enough now that i have dinos set to 250 and players to 200 .........my player can level up to 252 and my dinos can still only hit 236 (120 wild + 59 through taming effectiveness and 56 thru experience) soooo the hell is going on here -_-

 

now although my players can get the 250+ lvls which i figured it just swapped dinos and players for some reason.......dino max experience still says its 250k like i have it when i mount my maxed 236 argent so???

trying both at 250 lvls now to see if maybe for some reason player lvls and dino levels are reveresed....if they reach 250 now then ill reduce dino lvls to 200 to see if it reduces my fresh player to a max of 200 in game

it didnt make a change at all. No matter how many levels i add to dinos or players and change the exp cap it still only hits lvl 236 as if i cant override the original vanilla ark survival dino files.

 

players i can increase the level only by raising dino level area which is acting like its reveresed for some reason?
