  • The video is outdated. Please read the how to or see the screenshots if the process is unclear
  • Ensure HexagonCostMultiplier is NOT 0, otherwises crashes.


  • Configurable Hexagon Shop.
  • Works on all maps.
  • Owning Genesis required.
  • This is NOT a custom shop/store.
  • The main feature of this mod is adding the ability for admins to add/remove entries from the Hexagon shop.
  • You may have to turn your UI General Scaling down a few points in order to avoid overlaps for the inventory screen buttons. https://i.imgur.com/1eQvGVZ.png

Admin Commands:
Manual access the admin menu. If you disable the admin button on the inventory screen, this will be the only way to turn it back on.

GameUserSettings.ini Configs:
READ THE EXPLANATION BEFORE ENABLING!!!
[HLNAEverywhere]
UseDynamicItemListing=False
DisableTeleporting=False

Game.ini Configs:
These are core Ark configs related to the HLNA Shop and Missions.
HexagonRewardMultiplier=1.0
bHexStoreAllowOnlyEngramTradeOption=true
HexagonCostMultiplier=1
bDisableHexagonStore=0


If UseDynamicItemListing=True, a dropdown box of all available items will be used instead of a textbox requiring spawn codes. WAY cooler and it allows you to add lots of custom entries much quicker, but causes a huge client side freeze(Wildcard limitation, nothing I can do about it). I would personally use it when initially setting up the mod, as it would save a bunch of time adding bulk entries, but that's just me. Disabled by default. Use at your own risk.

DisableTeleporting: If true, the biome teleportation feature on HLNA is no longer available. Default: False


  • Turn on/off the default items in the hexagon shop.
  • Add up to 100 custom items to the shop, with control over cost and quantity.
  • Add up to 100 custom Loot Crates to the shop, with control over contents and cost.
  • Access the Hexagon Shop and Admin Panel via player inventory screen.
  • Accessible on any map, not just Genesis.
  • Configure how many Hexagons you receive and how often HLNA asks you to "Say Hello".
  • Configure a passive Hexagon for all players. How frequently and how many.
  • Items/Crates can be organized by dragging and dropping them on other items/crates in the Admin Menu.

Other Features:
  • To Enable/Disable default Hexagon Shop items, turn on/off the checkbox in the admin panel.
  • In order to remove all custom items/lootcrates, there is a reset button. For safety's sake, spamming the button is required to activate it.


How to Add/Edit:
  • Open player inventory and click on Admin Panel or use the script command listed above.
  • Choose any blank item entry.
  • Enter the spawn code, cost and quantity. If using experimental feature listed above, choose item from dropdown box(you can use filter to narrow down your search).
  • Repeat until all items you want available have been added.
  • Save & Exit. Changes will be applied on server restart OR Force Update to apply changes now.

How to Add Loot Crates:
  • Open player inventory and click on Admin Panel or use the script command listed above.
  • Choose any blank loot crate.
  • Select the lootset it will use.
  • Enter a name, description and cost.
  • Repeat until you have all the loot crates you want.
  • Save & Exit. Changes will be applied on server restart OR Force Update to apply changes now.

Loot Crate Contents:
Lootcrates are way more complicated, but also very customizable outside of Ark. They use the same configurability as boss/beacon loot. You can use the game.ini option to change/add lootcrates. ConfigOverrideSupplyCrateItems

You can read more about that over here: https://ark.gamepedia.com/Server_Configuration#ConfigOverrideSupplyCrateItems

There are 100 custom loot crates you can add. 001 through 100.
LootItemSets_LootCrate_Custom001_C
LootItemSets_LootCrate_Custom002_C
.....
LootItemSets_LootCrate_Custom099_C
LootItemSets_LootCrate_Custom100_C

I HIGHLY recommend using https://usebeacon.app/ to make your custom crates.

Custom Lootcrate Examples

Hexagons:
  • There is an option for acquiring hexagons passively in the Admin Menu. If that is not what you want or If you're on a map other than Genesis, I suggest using a mod like this.


  • Owning Genesis is REQUIRED for this mod to work(Wildcard's restriction, not mine).
  • Any changes(Removals, additions, revisions) will NOT take effect until server restart unless 'Force Update' button is pressed after saving the changes.
  • The Hexagon Shop/Admin Panel can NOT be accessed while mounted.
  • I will NOT be adding the ability to sell to the Hexagon Shop.
  • Any items added will be Primitive quality. This is beyond my control. If you want better quality items, use Loot Crates instead.
  • The "Say Hello" timer on HLNA is reset when you die.
  • If HLNA is hiding and you can't find her, there's an added button in the inventory screen to force her out.
  • You can backup your configs/changes by saving the following file: Saved\SaveGames\HLNAEverywhere\HLNAEverywhere.sav


Make a thread on the discussions with as much relevant information as possible. You need to post, at a minimum:
  • Game Mode. Singleplayer/Non-Dedicated/Dedicated
  • Map
  • Mods Used
  • What the problem is
  • What debugging measure you've taken
Videos are much appreciated.

Known Issues:
  • Shop and Admin buttons overlap with the inventory.
    Solution: In the game Options Menu, Turn down your General UI scaling a few points. https://i.imgur.com/1eQvGVZ.png
    Alternatively, you can disable them via the Admin Menu. You can also access the Admin Menu with Script Commands. See above for the command.
  • Empty Hexagon Shop? Default Shop items are removed by default. Enable them in the Admin Menu.

Even if Quell intends to do so, we will not be seeing Genesis proper until probably around this time next year, maybe even Christmastime.

One of the useful mods. Will it be migrated to ASA ?

pr0l1k3 | gcK.™, You can sell drawings through chests. In the example below there will be a full set of armor drawings

diggin the mod BTW
chaossymbol Jul 20, 2023 @ 10:55am 
for some reason I cannot search comments. I havee figured out how to add items but is there a way to add blueprints to the store?
pr0l1k3 | gcK.™ Jul 15, 2023 @ 9:24am 
HLNA doesn't start talking and therefor you don't get the note even though you fullfill the requirements
Quellcrest  [author] Jul 13, 2023 @ 7:20am 
Those who do not, simply don't get access to the shop. Everything else runs fine.
