Jerboa on the Island

[Bacon Cat]

Hey It´s me again. I´m hosting a Server and with the Island map and wondering why Jerboa´s don´t Spawn on the Island. I added them via game.ini file and they won´t spawn. Even not after restart of the Server and wipeing all Wild Dinos. Please help me.
PS: I don´t want any other scorched creatures so please no Comments with Tabula Rasa Mod.
Thank you

Jerboa are from the SE map and will not spawn on the center or island map (even if you add them to the ini file) unless you use a mod...

Yes, but is that also for the Island map? there is no mod only for jerboa, only one and that one sucks, cause its just a object that spawn jerboas

It's easy enough to just find an se server and go catch what you want and then bring them back to your island map you know?

First, We have an privat Server, so cross travel is no option, second the point is we want wild spawns on the map

or.... try Extinction Core mod, that should add them to TheIsland.

thats no option, bacause all scorched dinos are in. we only want jerboas

then play an se server or make a mod for jerboas.

You can add them in using configuration files. My friends and I have mantis spawning in the caves of the Island and Center. Those configs can be a little buggy though, and are difficult to set up.

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesCave1_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="MantisSpawner",EntryWeight=1.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Mantis_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Mantis_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05)))

Here's a link to the official wiki page on server configuration, the command is right near the bottom:

And here's a link to the spawn entries you can edit. You'd probably want the jerboas to spawn in the forests or grasslands, or perhaps the beaches:

You don't have to overwrite anything - there is that option, but you can add them to the spawner instead, so they will spawn alongside the other things that the spawner normally produces. So we still get arthro, spiders, bats and scorps in our caves too, just that mantis are also there.

Just make sure you balance the percentage so as to prevent over/underspawn.

Yes.

Hey again. I can´t understand, why it´s still not working.
Could you take a look? thats the code in my game.ini


ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesBeach_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="JerboaSpawner",EntryWeight=1.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Jerboa_Character_BP_C "))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Jerboa_Character_BP_C ",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=1.0)))


Thank you so much for your time
