need help with adding own bases as POIs

i have made five variations of a base and put them in a group, then told the game to add that group to a world, i have tried several times to get it to work, no luck.

the bases have alien cores, so it shouldn't be about that, could it be that i haven't added a spawner to them?

if anyone would like to see what the bases are like, i can put them up somewhere.

the world works fine other than that.

Edit
i tried adding spawners, fixing the name, i haven't figured it out yet.
adding the relevant playfield.yaml below.

did you put those POI in prefabs folder??

 

Just tried that. wondering if there is a limit to the number of prefabs you can have it make in SP

 

Did you add the spanwner blocks to the poi bases you built ?
Did you put them in the prefab folder and then start a new game ?

 

yes and yes

 

and that dose not worked?

EDITnly thing don't understand in the playfield.yaml, how "reservcount" works and how it affects the game..I will do some research on that and will see what is the problem with custom POIs

 

Im away from home for few days so I cant test any of this to be sure on this version.

 

Such things tend to be case sensitive in Emperion.

Is the groupname farms2 or Farms2?

Groupname and .yaml must match in all respects

 

I think u will find POI cores are set to a faction called [Aln] unless this is set they wont function as true POI's
and at present there is no way, even when you set this that the guns/spawners will work because then u build POI's or spawn an existing and edit, they are then converted to player id, thus wiping the [Aln] tag.
I have also found you are unable to use the convert steel process on them, as they do not appear to be made of the same steel blocks which we get in game.
I assume once they are set as POI they become custom blocks.
I have asked Devs, to lookin to this and possibly allow us to edit/create new POI's for server owners etc, yet no reply.

Verdict, at present it seems impossible to add brand new POI's, however you can increase amount of existing or even add other existing POIs into a new playfield.

No that's not correct.

The OP is following the published rules for creating new alien POI,so

- create BP
- Add to group
- copy to prefabs
- add go up to playfield.yaml
- Start a new game

In fact it's not even necessary to start a new game anymore, if you edit the correct playfield.yaml file

OP - which .yaml file did you change ./content or ./saves/games/etc?

 

Oh and to replaceblocks start with replaceblock xxx Hull HullFull - POI'S have a lot of pre-alpha blocks, and this will convert them to current hull blocks, so they can be further upgraded.

 

Well i currently have an experimental server running, and I have edited the playfield poi on my custom planet a few times, in an attempt to add new poi structures, but they dont seem to spawn, and there is no server error.
Please could you point me in the direction of this published POI setup and the correct yaml that people should be editing, because to my knowledge, you would edit the yaml of the planet playfield you wished too add the POI too and make sure its inside the pre-fab.

I still believe its not possible, as the POIs have the a name written into the HEX table as they are pre-alpha, without this name, the game doesnt seem to load them in, and theres no way too actualy add this into the HEX table even if you name the building before you save it.

But as I say please point us in the right direction if you have a working/tested method, thanks

Well ...... the admin of three REACH server replaces all POI'S every Sunday, without wiping, so you can see for yourself, you don't have to take my word

The simple method was posted by Hummel-o-War in the Steam forums some time ago. I'm AFK and can't provide the link, but I've provided the method, almost verbatim above.

As for the correct. Yaml, since Hummels method says create a new game, the correct one would be the ./content/templates/{bione} version.

I'm not sure if that's how the admin on Reach does it, he may simply destroy and restart, but I'm just spit balling on that one......

 

Thanks for your reply.

I have added

- GroupName: Fallen
- CountMinMax: [ 1, 1 ]
- DroneProb: 0.6
- DronesMinMax: [ 1, 2 ]
- ReserveCount: 3
- TroopTransport: False

into the Desert yaml which is used by omicron.

I have double clicked the Blueprint and set the group to Fallen as above group name,
I then copy the .epb file into the PREFAB folder along with all the other BA prefabs.

but when booting up in solo and starting new game omicron, it does not appear...

 

Found the issue and I fixed it! (Single player DOES NOT WORK as it dont create area files)

 

thank you. BTW to start a game as if it were on a server, use the dedicated server included w/ the game, enter the world, then exit and close server. resume game as SP new servers should show up.

 

Good tip. All my testing was done on a save that had been loaded both ways, and I Missed this nuance, sorry @ra5or, we are all still learning!

 

@DrDeve i sent you a message regarding POIs as well, havent had a response back yet, your pretty much the only person who everyone says to go to so if you get a chance send me a chat back =D

 

Sorry Vexray, was on vacation and didn't check here, can I still help?
