Essence Editor

MOD ID: 2824300161

[IMPORTANT: This mod is discontinued and will no longer receive updates or support. It is confirmed working as of patch v560.3]


IMPORTANT: You must do some minor setup for the mod to work.

• Designed primarily for dedicated servers, but it does work for singleplayer as well.
  
• Allows server owners to specify how many essences (and which ones) can be obtained in each trench.
  
• Great for smaller servers that don't want to have 9 different trenches.

Step 1: Open the ServerGrid.json
Using a text editor such as Notepad++, open your ServerGrid.json (in singleplayer, this is located at: \Steam\steamapps\common\ATLAS\ShooterGame). You can also do these steps directly through the SGE as well if you want, though the directions I give are for editing the json of an existing map.

Step 2: Add the sublevel
Use Ctrl+F to open the Find window and search for the Sublevel named: "Trench_B_Near"
It will look something like this (the numbers will likely be different):
{
"name": "Trench_B_Near",
"additionalTranslationX": -205479.875,
"additionalTranslationY": -200147.0,
"additionalTranslationZ": 0.0,
"additionalRotationPitch": 0.0,
"additionalRotationYaw": 57.71577,
"additionalRotationRoll": 0.0,
"id": 986,
"landscapeMaterialOverride": 7
},

Copy that entire section (including the brackets and comma) and paste it just below it. Change the "Trench_B_Near" to "Trench_B_Near_EE" on the copied section. You can see the mod screenshot titled Step 2 to see how it should look.

Repeat step 2 for each Trench on your map.

Step 3: Add the PowerstoneIndex to IslandInstanceCustomDatas
Use the find feature to search for: PowerStoneIndex
(Make sure you are only editing the ones for the "Trench_B" islandInstance, and not the powerstone islands)
(If you can not find any, you may need to add them)

It will look something like this:
{
"name": "Trench_B",
"id": 986,
"spawnerOverrides": {},
"minTreasureQuality": -1.0,
"maxTreasureQuality": -1000.0,
"useNpcVolumesForTreasures": false,
"useLevelBoundsForTreasures": true,
"prioritizeVolumesForTreasures": false,
"isControlPoint": false,
"isControlPointAllowCapture": false,
"islandPoints": -1,
"islandTreasureBottleSupplyCrateOverrides": "",
"IslandInstanceCustomDatas1": "PowerStoneIndex",
"IslandInstanceCustomDatas2": "0",
"islandWidth": 406500.0,
"islandHeight": 406500.0,
"singleSpawnPointX": 0.0,
"singleSpawnPointY": 0.0,
"singleSpawnPointZ": 0.0,
"worldX": 494520.125,
"worldY": 1899853.0,
"rotation": 57.71577
},

In the IslandInstanceCustomDatas2 section, add the additional essences you want that trench to have. If you only have 1 trench that you want to have all essences, your entry will look like this: "0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8". See the mod screenshot titled Step 3 to see the end result.

Repeat Step 3 for any addition Trenches you have.

Step 4: Save json and start up server/game
Simply save your json and start up your server/game as usual.
