Using search comes up with nothing 99.99% of the time
Everytime I search things it will come up "empty" or something. After searching probably about 150-200 things i only had about 3 come up with stuff. Maybe somehow the rarity slider got cranked? Is there a way where I can make search come up with more stuff or is it just somehow broken for me? Or does the mod expect me to spend 2 hours searching just to get one loot node with something in it, only for that to be a pair of binoculars? (Also 99.99% is actually accurate. Infact its 99.95%)

did you create your own mission in the editor? if yes try increasing the values in the loot system module

killerjilk, if you don't like vanilla loot system, you can try to ballance your own in Eden editor.

All needed is to edit "Ravage Loot" module, placed in scenario, and write your chances for every types of loot.

Civil loot - spawnes on houses, military - on military bases (really?), industrial - i think, it's trashcans and some tables/wardrobes in industrial zones like facilities, solar power plants, etc.

Chance of loot is arrays. Value >= 100 is 100% chance, that loot will exist after searching, if you wrote 100 chanse for any loot type (Survival, weapon, magazines, clothes and backpacks), that every time you search loot you will obtain 1 random type of loot (weapon only, for example), if you wrote some arrays bigger that others, they will be more often finded by Looting, that other.

Hope, you understand this. :steamhappy:

P.s. - Ravage scenarios on Eden editor not so hard to make, try it.

Thanks black death, ill try that. Jotrolol snens, I was using the single player scenario.

Also, there is no ravage scenarios in the eden editor. I just checked.

killerjilk, try to dowload someone's mission. Like that one . I'll just based almost every my scenario on dat one. To extract and open dat for continious editing, you shall subscribe it, play for a bit (just start, save and exit), then go to C:\Users\{YOUR PROFILE}\Documents\Arma 3\Saved\steam , there you can find a created folder, named like that mission (Ravage%20On%20Chernarus.chernarus , in my system :D). Next you should extract .pbo file with PBO Extractor[www.armaholic.com]. mission.sqm - is the mission file. You should place it on C:\Users\{YOUR PROFILE}\Documents\Arma 3\missions\{RANDOM}.chernarus folder. {RANDOM} mean scenario name in Eden editor, chernarus - the map, that scenario based on.

Huh. Enjoy.

Wow that sure is a lot to do just to make it work. I have found a good working map anyways, its called days after zero on chernarus redux map.
Henry Walker Sep 1, 2018 @ 6:55pm 
Any as you wish. You can just extract mission from PBO and edit for your purposes.

Really recomendented. As i started work in Eden Editor, can't stop even now) Finding new abilitiies every day, creating my scenario. Already have some storyline ideas
So, creating or just playing - enjoy your stay.

Ravage does have issues if it is run for an extended period and the scenario gets resumed.
For a bit better handling, you will need something that saves and generates items outside of the Ravage mod like BangaBobs scripts: http://www.armaholic.com/page.php?id=25668
And to save them you need inventories like vehicles found in "Grad-Persistence"
https://github.com/gruppe-adler/grad-persistence

This will give your build some robustness if you want to play it a little like DayZ on resumes, but any stuff you want to keep have to be stored on you (Saved by Ravage mod) or in vehicles (Saved by Grad-persistence) anything left anywhere else will poof on mission restart.

Thank you, I recently have been having this kind of trouble when resuming scenarios and have actually been trying to find a good way to spawn loot on the ground.
