PvPvE Server Mod/Plugin for protecting bases during weekdays / night ?
Hey there,
I am currently building a PvPvE server for players that don't have a lot of time during the week (due to work, university, etc) So rates are a tad higher and some other QoL things are configured.

Now the only problem we have, is that we would like bases to be indestructable/unraidable when it's not Friday or Saturday evening (say 7pm - 11pm)

The server config doesn't allow this flexiblity, so the only way we can achieve this currently, is restarting the server somewhere on friday morning where there is only a few or no people online and use the vanilla config settings (that trigger each day) and disabled it sunday morning.


Now the important question (TL;DR): Is there a halfway decently automated way in ARK for server owners to enable pvp raiding during certain weekdays and make bases completely "safe" during the week? Like a Plugin/Mod?

if you use ASM to manage your server you can schedule PVE time. havent used it but it is a setting that is available. if you are using a server host....um, ya...not sure bout that :)

You just setup the timers for when PvP turns on and off. And all the settings for both PvE and pvp.

Yeah well the issue is, I don't want to turn off PvP completely, just destruction of bases, I still want players to be able to kill in "open pvp"

You could try one of the save base type mods. There are a few. Not sure any have timers.

I checked those and sadly none of them really do what I need them to (which is a weekday based protection of bases)

Not sure this would work for what you want, but it would give you something else to think about.


HG has a shield that runs on special fuel spawnable by the admin. You could give each tribe so much fuel a week. It would be more work than just set a timer.
