Ragnarok over spawn of Karkinos
I have all Aberration creatures spawning naturally but the karkinos is the only thing overspawning
It’s spawn percent is at 0.001

which spawn container?
KitsuneShiro Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:45pm 
Here is what I settled on for adding spinos to the Rag swamp (this is long before the last few updates).

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntries_SwampWater_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="spino",EntryWeight=0.02,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Spino_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Spino_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.0001)))

I’ve got basilisk set for the swamp spawn and the swamp water spawn
I wanted to bring a threat to the beach’s and the Karkinos was perfect for that, the guys are loving the challenge but I’m afraid they may be in the early stages of overspawning

do you know the command to count dinos by species?
I use the mod ACM and it lets me count everything
GhostlyComa Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:49pm 
Oh I should give that a try
KitsuneShiro Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:49pm 
you could lower the entry weight. just adjust 1 number at a time.
GhostlyComa Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:51pm 
Maybe if I set the crab to shallow water spawn
GhostlyComa Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:53pm 
Can you explain entry weight? All of mine are set at 0.1 because I wasn’t sure what that meant
Everything else is spawning just fine
Kraken:1 Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:53pm 
I'd need to double check in the dev kit, but I'd suspect that because you've added it to beach spawns, that particular spawn zone and container is set up to only count land dinos and the Crab is classed as a water dino. Try adding it to a water spawner.
GhostlyComa Jan 12, 2018 @ 6:56pm 
Aye, will do.
I’ve got the lamprey set in the shallow spawn, I guess I’ll squeeze the crab in too :) maybe thorny dragons on the beach?
KitsuneShiro Jan 12, 2018 @ 7:02pm 
I think. The entry weight has to do with the chance to spawn. So each time a new dino spawns the entry weights get taken into account.
GhostlyComa Jan 12, 2018 @ 7:06pm 
Okay, so lower in this case means less likely to spawn?
KitsuneShiro Jan 12, 2018 @ 7:09pm 
I think so.
Kraken:1 Jan 12, 2018 @ 7:10pm 
Yep.
