New Bug it Seems!
SO been running new servers since the Genesis release on Pc. Getting complaints from players that the beaver dams are spawning with no Cementing Paste. I have verified this by waiting in god mode for whole new dams to respawn and sure enough they spawn with only wood and Silica Pearls like normal but no Cementing Paste. Im at a lost because i changed nothing in the ini files of the server start command that should effect this at all. Anyone also run into this issue since the release of Genesis or have a possible fix? Also effects the random dams created by having beavers in an area for a while.

You might just have lazy beavers, mine do have paste in their dam.

They also don't always have paste, a few weeks before genesis I got 4 on ragnarok with just pearls and wood

Bad luck I think, I found 1 yesterday with the usual wood/pearls/flowers and Paste.

Where the fudge you found beavers on the map or did you transport them into it?
So far haven't seen any and haven't seen any dams either.

The "big" frozen lake has a chance to spawn them.

i have checked hundreds of them and only have wood and silica. but i did not change anything in ini related to cementing paste. I only increase resource near player re-spawn rate to faster. but that shouldnt affect it. its something to do with ini. but i dont know what. anyone have any thoughts...

also i have verified that its is the same across all of the clusters, every beaver dam has only wood and silica...

does anyone know the Primal code name for small beaver dams? i found how i can at least fix in a way the huge beaver dams....."PrimalInventoryBP_BeaverDam_C".......
but its not working for the ones generated by the beavers themselves....if anyone knows this it would help a lot!

You know I didn't think of this. I might actually have my beaver dams drops changed like that. Not positive though. I will check

EDIT: I do indeed have the beaver dams changed, its using the "PrimalInventoryBP_BeaverDam_C" I don't have any other dams in my ini though

So the fix for this is a change i made in the game .ini, just copy the text over to a text doc. save and run server and add back the changes one by one till you find the culprit! It was something i changed that was causing the issue!

I was just amidst posting that it was definitely something related to your server customization since this is not an issue on other clusters nor official ones. Good to know you got it sorted then hehe.
