Unable to take over POIs

I recently rented a MP server from Havoc and was trying to set up a game so me and my friends can play this weekend and I discovered I couldn't capture POIs. I did my research and found out I needed to remove the following lines:

- Key: RegenAfter # Enable regeneration of POI if it has been "visited" and no player is in its vicinity
Value: 150 # Regenerate timer in realtime minutes (72 realtime minutes = 24h in-game)

I wiped my server and removed those lines from the playfield.yaml in the "Exampleplanet" folders and the "temperate" folders and started a new server.

After I spawned in I went to the Farm and killed the core but still got the message that I couldn't place my block in an enemy structure.

Am I missing a step? I really need to get this set up by Friday evening.

 

There were no updates I just got the server on Tuesday. If I look at my playfields .yaml the lines are still gone and I changed them before I created my server. I don't know if the Alien Cores will regenerate or not but I don't have the ability to place my own core and take over the structure.

 

\Content\Playfields\ExamplePlanet\playfield.yaml
\Content\Playfields\ExampleSpace\playfield.yaml
\Content\Playfields\Temperate\playfield.yaml
\Content\Playfields\Temperate2\playfield.yaml

 

I will try that when I get home and let you know. Thank you.

I am assuming after that I will need to delete the world and start over again correct?

 

you may not be done yet. editing the yaml files is the first step. have the planets already been generated?

wipe the server, all the generated worlds at a minimum.

 

I also rented a havoc server. for me I had the opposite problem. there wasn't any POI regeneration cause I commented out the custom scenario line. apparently the playfields in the content folder don't have them.

 

I went ahead and reinstalled the service since Havoc makes it so easy. Where is the "SCENARIO" folder located?

 

\content\scenarios

 

I don't see that.

 

Here it is. I edited out the passwords.

Past a map there your self called Scenarios. Should work.

But its weird should have been there

 

I should create a Scenarios folder in the content folder?

 

yes \content\scenarios

 

I created it but it is of course empty. Could it not have been there because no one has spawned into the world yet?

 

Nah now u have to follow hummels post about that copy stuff

 

host havoc requires you use their configuration utility. you're not supposed to have direct access to dedicated yaml file.

it's possible that 6.0 wasn't properly loaded. there should be a scenario folder.
