Loot crates: The Center

[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]

At first I thought I had found all of the loot crates on The Center -map.
I blocked all of them except two of them (the ones in the crystal caves in the trench) including the ones on the volcano island, preventing them from respawning at those locations and forcing them to spawn at predictable places - making it simpler to grab the crates as I only have to go to the same two locations everytime.

Though, now I noticed that all of sudden the crate only appeared in one of my two locations, indicating that there must be yet another spawn location that isn't blocked = that I haven't discovered yet.
I've also read that people are speculating that there are a total of 20 crate locations including the ones on the volcano island, though I only know about 19 of them. (Actually you'll read about 18 in total at forums instead of 17, but people are excluding the two volcano crates)

Here are the locations for the loot crates that I'm aware of (Lat / Long) for the current map 247.99:
01. 19.6 / 46.3
02. 21.8 / 58.5
03. 21.3 / 67.8
04. 23.6 / 74.9
05. 21.2 / 82.3
06. 30.6 / 91.7
07. 37.5 / 92.1
08. 46.2 / 94.0
09. 54.4 / 91.2
10. 65.5 / 85.3
11. 65.4 / 87.6
12. 67.7 / 88.3 (Cave)
13. 74.4 / 84.5 (Cave)
14. 71.4 / 75.3
15. 71.0 / 50.4
16. 74.0 / 55.4
17. 67.9 / 46.8
18. 13.7 / 56.3 (Volcano Island)
19. 11.1 / 65.9 (Volcano Island)

Anybody know where the 20th may be?
Also, I haven't been able to confirm if the crate spawns at the volcano island are linked to the sea crates?

You are a terrible person.

[Natjur]

Please tell me your doing that on a single player or personel\private server

[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]

Terrible person? :p I'm on a private PVE server.

Was sure there was 20 spots but 1 spot can not be reached as its outside the map. (its listed as a spawn spot in the dev kit but u can not get to it on the map

[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]

So I guess it will be reachable once the extendable map update gets released?

I logged it as a bug on the map. I am sure the mod maker has 'finished' with the map and just doing a few bug fixes

Wait... extendable map?

[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]

Yeah... or whatever they mean by that delayed update that is supposed to happen now on Tuesday the 18th.

Thats procedurally generated maps which will not effect the current, normal maps of The Island, The Center, or Scorched Earth.

Its an entire map randomly generated, not an extension or modification of current maps, just FYI.

Can someone explain to me what the OP did? I mean, how do those loot crates work? Are there always only 2 crates spawned, so that he wants to block all spawns but one?

The loot crates, am I assuming right that those high numbers for the longitude value indicate it's the deep sea loot crates? Are those the same pool like the crates on volcano?

And if you know about the mechanics behind the loot crates, can you also tell me about background mechanics of airdrops? Like how many there are at any given time, etc.?

[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart]

Well crap then, I guess I'll never reach the final one...

Just do some googling and reading and you'll get all the info you need.

I'm blocking all spawns but 2, as there are always 2 loot crates spawning simultaneously (however there is a reported glitch that only 1 spawns on The Island -map for a while now).
You need to be level 80 or above to reach the crates.

All beacons appear at fixed locations, and can have 3 or 4 colors for each location. There is a map of all beacon locations and what colors each location can spawn for The Island map, but I haven't found one yet for The Center -map.
