Trilobite Spawn Config. Doing it right?

[Nebula]

Here is my spawn weight code for the Trilobite. Am i doing this correctly?

DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag="Trilobite",SpawnWeightMultiplier=15,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=False,SpawnLimitPercentage=2)

This is all in one line like the wiki says. Its not spread out like this


I havnt noticed a spawn difference and a lot of mods like the Jurassic Park and Additional Creatues kinda spawns lots of aquatic dinos so i turned some of them down. I still dont see a lot of difference in the spawns of trilobites even after using DestroyWildDinos and waiting for about 15m wandering in the ocean. There are some but not a lot.

I assume it has to do with the percentage thing? Still learning this whole spawn weight thing

subscribing to this. let us know when you have a good population setting. Love trilo for early mats gathering since you get oil & other good stuff from them.

I will be testing some things with it. But will keep in touch

Ok so changing the SpawnPercentage seems to have done that.

[Nebula]

DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag="Trilobite",SpawnWeightMultiplier=15,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=True,SpawnLimitPercentage=10)

This is a lot of trilobites so maybe adjust it to like 5 instead of 10 on the percentage thing.

Hi Guys, I have another question - where to paste it? I know it's file - GameUserSettings.ini however not sure under which line. Should this be:
[/script/shootergame.shootergameusersettings]?

It goes in the Game.ini file, not the GameUserSettings.ini file. Under the header: [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

It has been a long time but wiki says you throw it under [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]

^This is where i got most of my troubleshooting and or additions. Its somewhat near the bottom, just look for "DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers". This entire wiki page is overall VERY helpful. You can probably fix most issues or adjust things you normally would not be able too.

I only know as much as i can recall and the wiki only gives me a slight recollection of my memory. Unfortunately i can be of no help afterwards as i do not have the game installed anymore so i do not have access to files and such.

hope this helps at all.
