Spirit Queen Bee-s Ini help needed.
So don't get me wrong, they are adoreable and an interesting addition to the game. Altho I got some problems with them and simply doesn't want them in the map.
I can fix that right, I can just replace them with something and without putting that something (Celestial Seeker) into spawn weights for specific biomes, the Bee-s will just dissapear and I will be ok right?
Right.....?
Except it doesn't work...

NPCReplacements=(FromClassName = "SpiritBee_Character_BP_C", ToClassName = "CelestialPteroteuthis_Character_BP_Child_C")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName = "SpiritQueenBee_Minion_Character_BP_C", ToClassName = "CelestialPteroteuthis_Character_BP_Child_C")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName = "SpiritBee_Character_BP", ToClassName = "CelestialPteroteuthis_Character_BP_Child_C")
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName = "SpiritQueenBee_Minion_Character_BP", ToClassName = "CelestialPteroteuthis_Character_BP_Child_C")

Before moving on lemme explain what does this means, It should replace the spawns of the Spirit Bee-s with the spawns of Celestial Seekers, but whenever I did something like this the replaced creature nor the replacement didn't appear, because they would be needed to add their spawnweight into specific biomes. Wich I don't wanna do, so I basically used this formula to simply remove specific dinos from their spawns.
It worked till this part because I made all Buffoon creatures dissapear from base Primal Fear, and Ichty-s from vanilla.
NPCReplacements=(FromClassName = "NecroticWyvern_Character_BP_ZombieFire_C", ToClassName = "Dodo_Character_BP_C") - This for example disables the Necrotic Wyvern to spawn, and it works, never seen any Necrotic Wyverns since I've added this into the Game.Ini.

For some reason it doesn't work on the Spirit Bee-s.

I've tried theese methods in Game.ini and doesn't really works, everytime I dino wipe they keep coming back, the problem is that, I even dig their name out from the mod files and its all "SpiritBee_Character_BP" located in the workshop/modnumber/dinos/spirit/QueenBee folder.
My last idea is trying to make a "SpiritQueenBee_Character_BP_C" and a "SpiritQueenBee_Character_BP" in the code, hopefully that works.

In the meantime I would like to ask for your help, so that I can remove theese from spawning on my map.
Cheers.

NPCReplacements will do absolutely nothing to any of my creatures. They don't spawn via the normal spawn system, and there is no reasonable way to fix it.

Is there any way that I can make them don't spawn then?

Thanks for your answer btw.

Damnit. Okay, thank you anyway.
I just made them to deal like 1% of their dmg and have 1% defense so they are basically non-existent now. Alphas can handle them even.

Why do you dislike them?

Well I feel that they are like everywhere when exploring jungles, swamps and the redwood forests.
Being Spirit creatures, they are actually painful for my ears with their spirit bombs, and yea they are like everywhere.
Being so many, their Spirit Bombs basically covers allmost all the paths I wanna explore too.
Playing on the Lost Island tho, dunno how common they are on other maps.
Otherwise I don't really have problems with them.

Bees have ♥♥♥♥♥♥ spawns, otherwise they'd spawn on bee hives. As it is now, they spawn off of Dimorphodons.

bit of an old thread i know but was just wondering if there is a spawn command for said chaos or spirit giant bee?
Dr stalin Jun 29, 2024 @ 4:43pm 
so your asking why people dont want the chaos and spirit queen bee from spawning for 1 the spirit queen bee is bugged it cannot kill any wild dino and will perma spam their aoe attack for nothing and for 2 the chaos queen bee is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ pain in the ass it has a way to big killing zone aoe from their chaos zone and since they use the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dimorphodont spawn they spawn everywhere and just make playing primal fear with this unofi mod just a trip to hell how many time i lost my biggest dino due to one chaos bee being way to close from my base and dino so yes you need to make something so that whe can either get reed of them since their just useless as hell of for them to have very small damadge zone and not having the dimorphodont spawn and something more rare
