Boss access shared across all terminals and supply drops?

[vertigoelectric]

As of yesterday I noticed that I can now access any of the three bosses from any of the three obelisk terminals, rather than having to visit a specific one for each. Today I found this is also true for supply drops (boss access via supply drop). I found a post online from 2017 talking about this, so apparently it's nothing new but it's the first that it's happening to me.

Can anybody explain what this is about? Is there a way for me to set it back to "normal"?

I'd really like to know what this is about...

In singleplayer you can go to any boss arena native to that area from any terminal but not drops. In multiplayer to make life easier in hazardous areas like say Aberration, rather than trucking everything across the map to a terminal they allow boss fight teleportation via supply drop as well. If you play on an unofficial server they may have these settings enabled only recently, if you own the server then I'd say an update you did recently may have reverted an ini file somewhere to enable these settings. Official servers have had this enabled since I started playing over a year ago, right around the time the game left EA

Thanks for the reply. Oh, I'm sorry I forgot to mention I run the server...

Weeks ago I started hosting non-dedicated sessions for myself and a friend. During this time, none of the bosses were shared across all terminals and we had to go to the specific terminal for the specific boss (megapithicus at blue, broodmother at green, dragon at red). None of the supply drops had anything but supplies.

A few days ago, I converted our game world to a dedicated server. It was about that time that I noticed that now all of that stuff is available at all terminals and supply drops.

Based on what you say, it sounds like there's a way to *disable* this. Can you tell me how?

That I do not know I've never operated a server, but, someone out there probably knows something, I wish you luck in finding the answer.

Copy paste from what google gave me:

- New Host Option: Use Singleplayer Settings! When enabled, this edits all game settings to be more balanced for an individual player experience. Add bUseSingleplayerSettings=true to your Game.ini for server use. This is automatically enabled for Non Dedicated servers too, you can disable it in your host menu settings, or set the ini to false.

This might be only way to do that as the terminal difference is single player specific.

[vertigoelectric]

I already have "bUseSingleplayerSettings=True", though.

[GobboKirk]

hmmm... more googling needed then I guess hehe.

[vertigoelectric]

Yeah I've been searching but so far I haven't found anything helpful. Most of what I found are posts from people complaining about NOT having boss access from loot crates, but even then nobody seems to be discussing how to configure it.

[GobboKirk]

Might not even be an option I guess.
If there isn't I guess self discipline is your last option.

[vertigoelectric]

Well it's not so much a discipline issue. It just makes things a bit more cluttered and confusing. Oh well.

[GobboKirk]

Worst case it also saves you dragging 20 dinos across half the map for each boss.

We use the Awesome Teleporters mod so traveling is not an issue. I have teleporter pads at each obelisk as well as each artifact and other points of interest on the island.

So it's 1 year later and now I'm wondering if anyone know how to fix so that you can summon all the original bosses on The Island map from just one obelisk terminal?
Let's say I only want to use the Red Obelisks terminal for all bosses. I checked the "Use Singleplayer Settings", but it didnt do it. How can I fx this in singleplayer?

Structures plus or super structures both have transmitters that allow this.

Transmitters? What kind of Transmitters?
