Cargo Drops

[vonbakker]

i have cargo drops set to be more rare, about 1 drop a day now, but it seems when they drop they dont spawn anymore, i go to where they suppose to be and nothing, nothing in sky , nothing on ground. I noticed one finally spawned that was near my base, about 3 minutes before it blew up so i just kept my distance

Between this and the crazy fuel use rate, im ready to set SCUM aside untill theres some fixes/ patches

Hello :),

The Vanilla Cargo drop has a secondary timer. This timer is a delay timer and is set to 10 minutes before the Cargo drop will appear finally. In order to have direct cargodrops you can either change the setting inside of the Server Settings or weit ingame near the marked location until the Cargo drop finally arrives. :)

Thank you for reply , much appreciated, it looks like the default delay time is 9 minutes, thats a long time.

You can change this time in your Server Settings. :)

I am testing this out myself, can I ask what settings you're using for min max durations? I can't seem to find a good ratio to make drops more scarce. Thanks in advance.

cargo drop cooldown min = 300, = 5 game hours, if 60 equal a game hour
cargo drop cooldown max = 600, cargo drop will be 5-10 game hours

world/weather/time of day speed was set to 3 "8hr game day" a drop would happen about once a game day.

I have it set to 180 min and 360 max, i think thats 12 to 24 hours game time. I dont think those settings are in Game Minutes, those are real time minutes (or seconds as it were). My 24 hour game day lasts 6 real time hours.

This setting is perfect, much appreciated.

I hope you manage to figure out the perfect settings for your server, if you'll have any more trouble, feel free to discuss some more, I see you already got some useful tips! :D

Im liking the updates so far, ive encountered some glitches, like my prisoners model will glitch out sometime, but a return to main menu fixes that. IM liking the cooking , except i havent found a shred of pasta yet ;) none of the merchants at the mountain lake had pasta

Seems there has been a few animal spawn points added, i usualy use same base , a house in a village and now have seen 3 bears and a wolf spawn near my base, but overall still not seen alot of animals, since ive been playing scum, 250 hours or something ive never seen a deer or chicken in game

Except for the Predators like wolves and Bears you will need to go to a Hunt to find the other animals. the best you can do to get a insight of it is to take a look at the patchnotes from 0.85v Hells Kittchen where it is explained how to Hunt. :)
