LootRespawnDays = "0"

[Bromulus]

What will this do?

<property name="LootRespawnDays" value="0" />

Is this effectively a disable?

My goal is to have a world that spawns all of its containers normally but spawns the items inside them only once forevermore. If said container is looted it will never auto-refill and remain empty in perpetuity.

Would this line accomplish what I am thinking without any cataclysmic domino effect I am not grasping?

Yeah, that should do it. Though if you're playing singleplayer its worth mentioning that loot respawn time is also an in-game option from the menu.

Cool thanks.

(FWIW I'm always server MP, settings from serverconfig)

p.s.

Although I've often wondered if I can run into a single player game to actually "have fun in game" instead of "working on game" -- but I am too scared it will mess something up with my server mods.

WARNING: This did not do what we thought. Setting LootRespawnDays = "0" actually means it takes zero days for teh container to spawn loot again. Like you take a step back and a step forward and you can serach again. Rinse repeat.

Went in and cranked LootRespawnDays = "120"

I guess there is no way to disable (odd) so I wonder if their is an upper limit?

In light of my last faux pas, anyone see anything wrong with this?

<property value="365" name="LootRespawnDays"/>

you can completely disable loot respawn just dont ask me how to. but if you play singleplayer you get the option to disable it so its definetly possible :)

maybe you can also sett it to something crazy like 9999 or try -1 but i dont know anything about modding so your pc might blow up

Just to be clear, no you cannot. Not via the xml files in the server config. Thats what my little experiment/experience proved.

So now I am probing to see if anyone has had any experience/problems with upper limits though.

It must be possible to disable loot respawn since the in-game settings allow it and I've definitely seen servers that do it. I assumed setting the lootrespawndays to 0 was what did it. But apparently not.If you leave the value empty ("") does that work? Otherwise maybe it artifically does it by setting t he respawn very, very high. Not sure. I'm shocked 0 didn't work, honestly. Baffling.

Crazy right?

I can try value empty next. Ever heard any rumblings on upper limit issues? Because 365 days in game would do the trick for me as well.

I have not, no. Though now you have me wondering how they disable respawn on servers since 0 didnt work.

That makes two of us.

Also right along these lines... I've heard whispers that loor respawn does not affect birds nests, and they are perpetual regardless (which btw is perfecttly acceptable in my world).

Any truth to that?
