Thanks. I'll try that one

I think it worked!! Thank you again @floral warren

Anyone familiar with the S+ Propagator, I want to hear if it's still bugged or can be exploited? Specially about the mating cooldown. Also does it create S+ Eggs for dinos that already lay eggs or only for Gestation? Also anyone with more in-depth review when it come to server load, does having bunch of S+ Propagator is easier than having bunch of hitched dinos outside for breeding?

Hey. I try to hide Engrams for my Server. But it seems i can only hide 1 and i dont know what im doing wrong. I tried to write it one after the other or under each other with comma between them and so on. Can someone help me with this?

just out of curiosity, why would you want to increase flexible pipe count? people spam those things like crazy already

Why wouldn‘t I?
It’s a convenient way to place pipes and not to have them floating everywhere.

i don’t know why, but almost every time i play i tend to go around and tame a ton of dino. i also tend to breed dino’s. this time i’m trying to see what kind of mutations i get with the lystrosauruses.

there's a config to automatically unlock engrams, that doesn't respect hidden ones

Nah i dont use sth like that

floral warren
#

What file did you put them in?

As said it works but only for the first 1 when they are in a row

#

when they are under each other none work

floral warren

it might be something else, I wonder

wide gust
floral warren
#

they arent supposed to be in a row

#

Under [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]?

Yeah i know but i tried after nothing else worked

#

yes

#

Where did you get the engram classnames?

I looked in the files and on the webpage from the mod

They all work fine alone but when i try to add them togehter nothing works

How are you putting them together in the INI?

Yes

Good evening, do not know where to write that I would hear the developers ark survivals? on all unofficial servers now the problem with the discharge turret. when there is rarefaction occur horrible lag. this is an innovation with the gen 2 box to charge. would like to know when it is corrected? it happens when dropped more than 5 dinosaurs on turrets

floral warren
#

Your options are non-dedi- Easy asf to set up, but it can be unstable (unreliable with people being able to join), and has teleporting issues that range from 'you can't do caves alone' to 'unplayable' depending on map
Alternately there's dedicated which is more complex to set up but overall more stable (my personal recommendation is it's worth the setup to self-host it)
Can also rent a server though I wouldn't advise that unless self-hosted isnt feasible

#

How many people are you intending to play with?

humble thicket
#

And it's free

primal mango
#

keep in mind your pc needs to be decently strong to handle hosting dedicated and playing at the same time

#

8GB ram wouldn't be enough

floral warren
#

Dependant on number of players largely, but yeah

primal mango

Though map also matters a lot. gen2 is fucking awful with ram requirements unless thats been massively improved since release

Hello it will show me all the offical arks but none of the unofficial does anyone know a fix for it?

So question... I have a friend running a local dedicated admin under anon steam CMD. They are able to get the server running, and it looks like it's on, but they cannot join (epic), and neither can I (epic). crossplay is turned on with the public ip argument turned on as well. Trying to connect gets a timeout error (even for the hoster)

#

ports are forwarded and the steam query is set to 27015, even the firewall is off and it still cannot connect

Editing the crafting costs maybe? Could make them lower but other than that I really don't know. Someone else in here may have more info.

Craft costs are the best you got, yeah

#

Well you have 2 options, if you have a pc and access to Beacon Omni you can make mass edit all the crafting costs to say 50% cheaper for example.

If you not have beacon you will have to use this website called nipro which has being outdated since Extinction to manually edit each one and any engrams that came after Extinction you gonna have to manually create and edit in like notepad

#

Hello Eclipse

floral warren
#

I have a how-to written if you'd like an explanation on how you can do that manual editing

young minnow
#

Would like to see how you wrote yours out Eclipse

#

Mine one is pretty lame

floral warren
#

Fixing it's formatting up for discord rn actually because screenshots kinda sucked, only version I know the location of is set up for a mod guide

#

This code goes in Game.ini under [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode]. Each item uses it's own line.

As an example, we'll look at changing the cost of a modded Tek converter item, first to cost 100 Blue Gems or Blue Crystallised Sap, 30 fiber and 50 obsidian, second only 100 Blue Gems, 30 Fiber and 50 Obsidian, and third just remove the item's giga heart requirement.

ItemClassString=, is the classname of the item you're changing the cost of, with _C on the end. Classname must be contained in quotes ""
You'll have one ResourceItemTypeString section for each item you want the item you're changing the cost of, to cost. For each item,
ResourceItemTypeString= is the item's classname, and it must end in _C. Classname must be contained in quotes ""
BaseResourceRequirement= is the amount of that item it will cost
bCraftingRequireExactResourceType= determines whether any item that is a child class of the specified item can be used as a replacement (set false), or if only the exact item specified can be used (set true). Usually, you'll want to keep this False.

To find an item's classname:
For vanilla items, you can find them on https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Item_IDs

For modded items, look for a list of items or spawn codes. You can also find it by searching for the item in the mod's files, in Steamapps>Common>Ark>Shootergame>Content>Mods>[Mod ID], and finding the item's file. Remeber to add _C to the end, the filename will not contain it generally (if it does, add a second _C)

You can also find a classname from a BP Path. For example, from the Tek Converter's BP Path, the part in bold is the classname. Don't forget to add _C, BP paths do not have it.
Blueprint'/Game/Mods/ExtraItems/Consumables/DinoEffects/PrimalItemConsumable_Converter_Bionic.PrimalItemConsumable_Converter_Bionic

#

Example 1- Cost 100 blue gems or blue crystallised sap, 30 fiber and 50 obsidian:

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_Converter_Bionic_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Gem_BioLum_C",BaseResourceRequirement=100.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Fibers_C",BaseResourceRequirement=30.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Obsidian_C",BaseResourceRequirement=50.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False)))

Example 2- Cost 100 blue gems and not consume blue crystalised sap, 30 fiber and 50 obsidian:

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_Converter_Bionic_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Gem_BioLum_C",BaseResourceRequirement=100.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=True),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Fibers_C",BaseResourceRequirement=30.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Obsidian_C",BaseResourceRequirement=50.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False)))

#

Example 3- Remove giga heart requirement. Removing an item will require you to rewrite the item's crafting cost.

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItemConsumable_Converter_Bionic_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_BlackPearl_C",BaseResourceRequirement=100.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Crystal_C",BaseResourceRequirement=250.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Electronics_C",BaseResourceRequirement=250.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Element_C",BaseResourceRequirement=40.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_MetalIngot_C",BaseResourceRequirement=500.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False),(ResourceItemTypeString="PrimalItemResource_Polymer_C",BaseResourceRequirement=150.0,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=False)))

Coding is way over my head personally 😅😅

out of curiosity, how many resources does the blueprint take?

arctic badger
#

I have to check

primal mango
#

ah alright

floral warren
#

Ty! In revision think I should definitely clean it up a bit to be about.. not a modded item, at some point though

#

Reason I wrote it in the first place (and why that giga heart one specifically is there) was due to a lot of people wanting to remove that item from it lol

primal mango
#

it's from QOL items?

floral warren
#

ye

#

Tek converter

primal mango
#

and it needs a giga heart, I see

arctic badger
primal mango
#

not that expensive

#

I've seen some shit cost like 18k polymer

arctic badger
#

I spawn them in 100 at a time and look for the cheapest costing ones. I pick the ten that I think are best and let my members pick from there… but it dont all fit in the fabby 😅

primal mango
#

ah, yeah you need a tek replicator for those engrams

#

or an argentavis or beaver or thorny dragon

arctic badger
primal mango
#

they do

#

but they can also hold 300 stacks of items rather than 75

#

wait fuck

#

you said fabricator

#

I'm smart

arctic badger
#

Yis. And I dont have replicators on my server :/

Got a unique server going. No Replicator or way to create or repair Tek. It’s like alien artifacts that survivors can find and use. But if they break, they are done.

Heya, is it possible to run a dedicated server from anon steam CMD with battleye? It keeps timing out when users try and join

#

We cant seem to get it working, we are running local, ports forwarded, firewall disabled

timber wolf
#

Can anyone explain why I my npc replace codes aren’t working on lost island?

#

I can put Dino’s into spawn bins but not replace existing spawns

floral warren
timber wolf
#

That’s really annoying, so I’m going to have to remove them and readd to all the bins 😦

floral warren
#

yeah use configadd to add new spawns

timber wolf
#

Currently my maps just straight up missing all the dinosni tried to replace 😅

floral warren
#

yeah thats all npcreplacements are good for

timber wolf
#

Also do gen 1 variants just NOT work on lost island?

#

My gen 2 spawns worked fine but my gen 1 didn’t

floral warren
#

Some do, some will get turned into their normal and alpha counterpart without a mod fixing the thing that does it

timber wolf
#

Is there somewhere I can see which ones work or just trial and error?

floral warren
#

If it has an alpha variant it probably wont work

#

Exception on LI is raptors

Alright, Thankyou I’ll sort it out and rewrite everything… just might take awhile 🤣

For the life of me I can’t get Dino’s I added to spawn in groups, I’d rather not increase the spawn rate though but there’s plenty that naturally spawn in twos threes fours etc

I can help with it. I use it for my cluster

Beacon did the opposite of making it easy to understand

Yeah I have it on my laptop but it’s just ????

#

Same with the smart breeding calculator but I don’t need that

timber wolf
#

Yeah just a minute

floral warren
#

I also have a how-to write it by hand if you'd like, which details groups

timber wolf
#

Yeah I write mine by hand in notepad

#

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesMountain1_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="RAlloSpawner(3)",EntryWeight=0.035,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Allo_Character_BP_rockwell_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

#

just one but thats for the r allo

floral warren
#

Reason it's only spawning 1 is that you only have 1 dino set there

opal steeple
#

Yea

timber wolf
#

yeah and i dont know where it says that nor how to change it

floral warren
#

While the number in the entry name is generally an indicator of the amounts of creatures, it's got no actual bearing on what spawns

#

Gimme a sec, I'll grab it

opal steeple
#

I’m also checking my beacon (I have a project folder for messing with settings for this channel lol)

timber wolf
#

yeah i wouldnt have thought thatd be where to put it but after looking arlund so long i saw someoene elses code do something similar so i tried it n didnt work lol

floral warren
#

Here's a shorter set, for just one dino
ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesRedwoods_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Ravagers 1-2",EntryWeight=0.20,NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1.00,0.50),NPCsToSpawnStrings=("CaveWolf_Character_BP_C","CaveWolf_Character_BP_C"),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((X=0.0,Y=0.0,Z=0.0),(X=0.0,Y=200.0,Z=0.0)))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="CaveWolf_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05)))
NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesRedwoods_C" is where you want to put the dinos for this specific line and you can find a list of them here
https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn_entries
You can view the spread of each spawn container here
https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Spawn_Map_(The_Island)
It must end in _C

#

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesRedwoods_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Ravagers 1-2",EntryWeight=0.20,NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1.00,0.50),NPCsToSpawnStrings=("CaveWolf_Character_BP_C","CaveWolf_Character_BP_C"),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((X=0.0,Y=0.0,Z=0.0),(X=0.0,Y=200.0,Z=0.0)))),

NPCsToSpawnStrings= Uses the classname of the dino you want to spawn. What you enter into this must end in _C

EntryWeight=0.20,NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1.00,0.50)
Are both the chances of dinos spawning. Entry weight is the chance of that whole spawn spawn group being chosen. NPCstospawn is the chances of individual dinos (potentially multiple) being spawned once that group has been chosen (value should be between 0-1)

NPCsSpawnOffsets= is the offset to spawn each dino in the group at. This is not necessary for groups with only a single dino, but groups with multiple should have a different one for each, to prevent them spawning inside each other. Don't set these distances too high, or you may have issues with dinos spawning in the mesh or outside counting zones.

NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="CaveWolf_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.15),
Sets a maximum on the percentage of dinos inside that spawner that can be this specific dino. Also uses classname and once again must end in _C
So in this example, what's happening is

#

Slightly out-of-context extract from the full guide, but hopefully will still do the job

#

So to have multiple dinos, you need multiple entires in NPCsToSpawnStrings

#

You'll also want to set the offsets though, or you get the situation allos have lol

timber wolf
#

yeha i love seeing 3 allos meshed inside each other

floral warren
#

Fun fact, they do actually have offsets set

#

It's just that two of them were given... the same fucking offset lmao

timber wolf
#

thats just 10/10

floral warren
#

Oh and you can have negative offsets, I should probably note that somewhere in here

timber wolf
#

hands down server owners could do better than wc sometimes

floral warren
#

Yeah I'm tempted to just re-do all the allos tbh, haven't tested if Subtract will work adding the same creature back though. I assume not so likely will need modding

#

Could replace them all with X or R allos for a simpler solution but then you got random out of place variants which is almost as bad

timber wolf
#

So for three guaranteed allos entry weight (1.0,1.0,1.0)?

floral warren
#

NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance

#

Entry weight is for the whole group to be chosen, relative to everything else in the container

timber wolf
#

What I meant vs what I said

floral warren
#

Lol. Yup, that's correct then

timber wolf
#

Then just wiggle them away from each other with coordinate offsets?

floral warren
#

Yep

#

I'd go for probably 300

timber wolf
#

Seems like a fair amount

#

And for varying amounts like idk raptors 1.0,1.0,0.8,0.7?

floral warren
floral warren
timber wolf
#

100% I’ll look at that was trying hard to find where the originals were 😤

floral warren
#

And here's the fabled normal allos lmao

timber wolf
#

They’re so smart 🤣🤣🤣

floral warren
#

Tbf, it's probably easy to miss. Sometimes the devkit doesn't actually stick your changes if you edit a box the wrong way, and a tiny little minus sign is easy to miss

#

..Still, it's not like it's a hard fix lol

timber wolf
#

But after all these years of them being like that…… surely???

floral warren
#

Yeah, one of those minor things that just gets overlooked in favour of bigger bugs, I guess

timber wolf
#

Bigger bugs like falling through aberration maybe? Maybe? No?

floral warren
#

I'd take all the fucked up offsets in the world for the random replacements bullshit to be fixed>.>

#

Which is an equally simple fix but with muuuch bigger impacts

timber wolf
#

Yupppp

floral warren
#

That's why you can't spawn X rexes on LI without a mod fixing the replacements

#

It sees X rex as normal rex, replaces it into normal and alpha rex

timber wolf
#

I’ve nearly got everything in for my first round of x dinos, just not the spinos which really don’t want to work

floral warren
#

Don't want to work how?

timber wolf
#

Not existing

floral warren
#

And are you adding them to the spino countainer? That'll probably overspawn

floral warren
timber wolf
#

They’ve got a unique container on LI like the gigas

floral warren
#

Yeah, that'll probably overspawn

timber wolf
#

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntries_Spinosaurus_LostIsland_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="BogSpinoSpawner",EntryWeight=1,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Bog_Spino_Character_BP_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Bog_Spino_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

floral warren
#

Containers that naturally only spawn 1 dino are generally set to count only that dino. Resulting in infinite spawns if you remove the thing that normally spawns in it and add something else- It always thinks it's empty

timber wolf
#

Possibly, I can readd the normal one and have both which worked for the gigas

floral warren
#

Yeah, might be fine like that. Should still keep an eye on it though

timber wolf
#

Or add them to a different bin and deal with it

floral warren
#

I'd do that tbh

#

Only count isn't worth fucking with

#

You can very easily get shit like 60,000 of whatever creature in there crashing your server

timber wolf
#

I’ll try it when I turn server off again in a minute

#

Try both whichever works out is good

While we’re here talking garbage about spawns. I ruined my velo spawn somehow. I had them in the desert and they spawned fantastic but then I added r thylas there and neither want to spawn

#

Should I be doing config Mc bin then (Dino 1 spawn line) Mc (Dino 2 garbage line)

#

Because I’ve been doing it individually

floral warren
#

All edits to the same container need to be on the one line

timber wolf
#

That explains many items not working together

#

Not yet had an issue where I’ve put more than 1 Dino in the same bin but I’m really enjoying messing around with the LI bins

#

Is it possible (on console) to be able to easily find structures as an admin? I'm want to clean up old bases but don't want to fly around trying to find them all/looking through all the caves.

Yeah, they're really fun to work with so far except the fucking angler

#

“Why is my server lagging in this part of the ocean”

#

Hmm

floral warren
#

generally containers with multiple creatures in them are fine, but it's not a requirement, so that's possibly what happened here. No way to check till LI hits the kit either

floral warren

#

The only thing is I have separate lines for redwood r gasbag and ab dire bear and they’re working but bronto+Equus and thyla+velo aren’t

floral warren
#

But 120k sets the record for the most extreme overspawn I've ever seen so there's that at least? lmao

timber wolf
#

Only bronto spawns and neither thyla velo so this game could do with some consistency

floral warren
#

Remember there is also some element of random to it so particularly if your weights are low, that could contribute

timber wolf
#

Bronto 10 Equus 6 and 12
Thyla 35 and velo 35

Weights? Those are really damn high

ill add the other noc but like this

You need to add 3 allos there in the same entry

timber wolf
#

you mean the offset for the third allo or just add the three allos bc as i understand it theres three there

floral warren
#

You need 3 allos in NPCsToSpawnStrings

timber wolf
#

so allo_bp, allo_bp,allo_bp

floral warren
#

The number you put in AnEntryName has no actual bearing on what spawns. Could put no number, could put 1000, won't have any effect

timber wolf
#

Ignore the entry name

#

I left it there from earlier bc I’m lazy

floral warren
#

Ah 👍

#

But yeah it's the NPCsToSpawnStrings you need to have 3 entries in for 3 dinos

#

It's how you can have multiple dinos spawn together too like yuts + carnos

timber wolf
#

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesMountain1_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="RAlloSpawner(3)",EntryWeight=0.035,NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1.0,1.0,1.0),NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C","Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C","Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C"),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((x=0.0,y=300,z=0.0),(x=0.0,y=400,z=0.0)),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Allo_Character_BP_rockwell_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

#

still need to add the other offset but like that?

floral warren
#

Yup

timber wolf
#

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesMountain1_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="RAlloSpawner(3)",EntryWeight=0.035,NPCsToSpawnPercentageChance=(1.0,1.0,1.0),NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C","Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C","Allo_Character_BP_Rockwell_C"),NPCsSpawnOffsets=((x=0.0,y=300,z=0.0),(x=0.0,y=400,z=0.0),(x=0.0,y=500,z=0.0),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Allo_Character_BP_rockwell_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01)))

#

missing a bracket but this will work as intended?

floral warren
#

Yep, though I'd also raise the max% a little

#

5-10% is what I generally go for for pack dinos

timber wolf
#

The spots they’ll be spawning here isn’t too large but might raise to 5%

One more question. In the unofficial server settings there is "xp multiplier" and then there is different spacific xp multiplier options. Will the first "xp multiplier" one effect all others even if I don't change the spacific ones?

Setting to wipe any tamed or wild dino over lvl 350? This high level spawn wild Rex only bug is annoying, wish the devs would fix it. I know official default is 450 but I don't see a server setting to control it. All other dinos on lost island are spawning 150 except sometimes a random glitched rex that will spawn in the 400s and is tameable.

So people could still tame and use them until a restart. Disabling taming would most likely make existing ones bug out though

If you want more than 1 map at one time, you’ll need more than 1 server. Otherwise you’d have to upload items and character to the ark data, shut down server, choose a new map, turn server back on, and download on the next map. That does save the last maps data while you’re not using it i believe. So you could return and your structures should be there*. To link multiple servers together,

#

You choose one as the “hub” and create a cluster Id. Then you enter that ID into the same spot on the other servers so they all link together. From there I like using Beacon to get my settings customized to how I want them. I can still add the ini code when needed if Beacon doesn’t have it already

# humble swallow that must cost a fortune

It’s a pretty penny but I mained on official for a year and got tired of the constant disconnecting, lag, pillar spam, and general toxic players even on PvE. Tried some other clusters and stats were either crazy boosted, community was creepy/toxic, or you had to donate to do anything in game. So I said to hell with it and made my own where I actually enjoy it and have around 30 people so far.

I was wondering if someone could lend some insight here

#

I recently lost my character on my friend's unofficial Lost Island server after uploading to the Obelisk

#

I redownloaded my survivor from the Obelisk and it just gave me a fresh spawn new survivor

#

My original survivor is not even listed in the Obelisk anymore

#

Is there a way to restore my original survivor?

#

Since I uploaded it, a file must have been created somewhere right

#

I'm not exactly sure how it works, but I'm really bumming right now since I've lost it

@sturdy lark that on all their maps? Kinda sounds like an event server

its a private server made with a seperate pc, no events only 1 map and its lostisland

only the host can place structures and there are less dino's (some parts have none)

Yeah that's odd, I'm not sure about that one. Has the owner said anything or are they also confused?

the owner is my friend i know him, he is trying to fix it by changing the dinospawnrate and stuff but no luck

Might suck but defaulting all his settings might work and then just be careful with what he messes with.

Or do a few changes at a time so he knows that's causing the issue

strange is... we use an auto rcon tool (over two years now) and mostly when it post an broadcast the rcon hangs on all maps and one of them will crash

floral warren
#

Nothing stands out as problematic but you could try full reinstall them all. If that fails, see if you still get crashes without any mods
If you stop crashing, then start halving the modlist till it solves the crash and continue to do so till you know the one that's the culprit

#

..Well if the crashes coincide with using the rcon tool that sounds like the most likely culprit

willow crystal
#

we have been using the mods for a very long time. and with 19 maps using one without or fewer mods will take a long time because one map always randomly crashes, so I can't predict if and when the "testmap" could crash

Did you purchase it through the microsoft xbox store?

strong olive
#

Yes

opal steeple
#

Is it a single server?

#

*just one and not a cluster

strong olive
#

Yes we like Rag, and figured we'd up it and add maps if it got populated

opal steeple
#

Okay. Once you purchased it, installed the game and it restarted did you stop it before making changes to the settings?

strong olive
#

At first yes, we've had it about two weeks. Then we downloaded beacon on the PC and made changes there and let beacon stop and start it

I have 9 servers through nitrado and use beacon for mine so I will try my best to answer. This thread is for Cluster owners needing help with their servers and often times better for answers like this one @native stag

opal steeple
#

When you go to use a obelisk/transmitter do the other servers show up?

opal steeple
#

Are there any passwords on the servers? (for people joining)

native stag
#

no password

#

crossark enabled on all?

native stag
#

so what is basically crossark ?

opal steeple
#

crossark allows you to transfer across maps in a linked cluster

#

not to be confused with crossplay which is for xbox/win10 players

native stag
# opal steeple crossark enabled on all?

so i should better explain i think, so when we get to a pillar, we are able to see all map on the cluster, choosing one and initiating the transfer call the map and start to load the mods, then we got a white screen and got disconnected. To make it work we need to lagin again on the destination map, then create a new char. Then getting back on previous map and initiate again the xfer to be able to download the survivor file

opal steeple
#

Do you have prevent character/items/dinos upload and download set to true in your ini?

opal steeple
#

Those all need to be set to false.

Using ark server manager to run a server. We can both see it under favorites (using steam server favorites) I can join the server, but anytime my friend tries it says connection timed out.

Nice edit 🤣 I figured a cluster was the solution I was just hoping it wasn't. I'm a broke ass

floral warren
#

Rip, it's cluster or buggy dino slots then unfortunately

#

Oh or Singleplayer, long as you don't load into non-ded someone else hosts, or a server, with cryoed dinos in the obby

#

..no solution that isn't 'play in a different mode' pretty much:P

#

It's fucking dumb but yeah no way to get it to work everywhere, it either works in that gamemode or it doesnt

muted marsh
#

You'd think the server service would come with cloud storage

#

It's not like you'd need a lot

floral warren
#

It's stored locally

#

got nothing to do with the host

#

Non-dedi also breaks them if you aren't the host

muted marsh
#

So how does one go about setting up a cluster

floral warren

Depends on your host probably

nova shard
#

im not sure if this is where im supposed to be posting this so just tell me if its not but If i wanted to change tamed dino stats per level I would do PerLevelStatsMultiplier_DinoTamed[1-9]= in the game ini file right?

#

I just made a server for me and my friends yesterday so i'm still really new to this stuff and configuring game.ini is kind of daunting

humble thicket
#

if you are hosting steam server, just use ark server manager if you are new to hosting

nova shard
#

and what is ark server manager?

#

im also using mods if that changes anything

humble thicket
#

google ark server manager, I cant post the link.

#

it is GUI for configuring all the ini and managing multiple servers for steam hosted servers

#

not official but well supported

#

it handles mods, ini, server backups, configuration, can do discord bots, etc.

#

Use beacon for supply loot crate config, you can export ini into the ark server manager (ASM) also from beacon

nova shard
#

how can I load the server I created yesterday into the server manager?

humble thicket
#

the server manager stores the server saved files the same way

#

just point it towards that. if not start a blank server on the manager and see where it created the saved folders. then copy in your game server files

nova shard
humble thicket
#

you have to copy in the mod id into the mod section. it then fetches the mod install files

nova shard
#

i just updated them all through the manager but it didnt detect the mod map that im using (Olympus) when I imported the game settings. how can I make it so I can play on a mod map?

# vestal hatch I'm not 100% on this but until somebody smarter comes along I'll say it stacks. ...

Looks like the buffs might be able to be suppressed according to the announcement. No idea what it actually does, but seems like the best bet

"If you would like to tweak world buffs on your Unofficial server during the Valentines event:

DisableWorldBuffs=MATINGINTERVAL_DOWN_HARD
MATINGINTERVAL_DOWN_MEDIUM
MATINGINTERVAL_DOWN_EASY
BABYMATURE_BOON_EASY
BABYMATURE_BOON_MEDIUM
BABYMATURE_BOON_HARD"

Whenever my friend tries to join my modded server he gets “connection to host timeout” would verifying game files on his end be a possible fix?

floral warren
#

You need spawnactorspread

vestal ingot
floral warren
#

And additionally you will need to add values to the command such as the actual amount and the spread

prime leaf
floral warren
#

Spawnactor and spawnactorspread are 2 different commands

#

The first will only spawn 1 dino. It's not made to be used to spawn multiple

#

That's what spawnactorspread is fir

#

I saw there was an example on the link you showed me and I tried that but I guess it was wrong . You mind giving me an example of a proper command?

<spawn distance, y offset, z offset, creature level> for the last 4 numbers

#

There are the usual delays with a larger update filtering thru to all the devices (pc,xbox........) and also to the paid for server hosts ( nitrado, Gportal.... this all takes time and sometimes throws up errors we the players dont see (🤫 ) for the third parties this causes delays. No one can see what error will crop up and no one can forsee when/if a thirdparty needs a fix or the game code needs a tweek. All in all asking for a time scale is like asking for nexts weeks lotto numbers
