Hey, I am trying to build a world with a fixed location Drone Base POI. Unfortunately I can't seem to designate a fixed location POI as a Drone Base. Any ideas? I have tried: - adding the GroupName to the Fixed POI to match -- didn't work - changing the name of the GroupName in DroneBaseSetup to the Prefab name. -- didn't work Thoughts?
I'm having the same issue. Not to hijack your thread but we can compare notes. Here is what I have in my playfield.yaml: Code: POIs: Fixed: - Type: BA_Admin Prefab: PlanetBase2 Mode: Survival Name: Orbital Portal Pos: [ -407, 30, -262 ] Rot: [ 0, 0, 0 ] InitPower: True The name and group name are both PlanetBase2. I have uploaded the PlanetBase2.epb to \Empyrion\Content\Prefabs\ but I cannot get the portal to show up. I checked the map and nothing is there, under or above ground. I am not getting any errors that I can find.
Got nothing on the code side for you. Looks like mine, but my POI's spawn where I want them. Fixed: - Type: BA_Alien # Type of blueprint (BA, SV, HV, CV) Prefab: BA_CeruliaFortress # Filename of blueprint Mode: Survival # Creative or Survival SubMode: Normal # Empty / Normal (only evaluated in Creative mode) [default: Normal] Name: Cerulia Fortress # Name of blueprint as displayed to player Pos: [ 2000, 10.0, 900 ] # Position coordinates Rot: [ 0, 0, 0 ] # Rotation angles InitPower: True # Set if POI should be initially powered, default: False Properties: - Key: RegenAfter # Enable regeneration of POI if it has been "visited" and no player is in its vicinity Value: 250 # Regenerate timer in realtime minutes (72 realtime minutes = 24h in-game) My issue is designating this as a DroneBase so that it will spawn drones.
Having the drone base doesn't mean it will spawn drones. Drone spawning has its own code that needs to be set. I am not home at the moment but when I get a chance I will post here
Cool, Appreciate it. I got it to designate the base as a drone base by assigning the group name correctly, but drones aren't spawning. Currently trying to get the CV Base setup as a fixed location.
so here is the code you need drone base has its own sub category and dont fall under the standard POI subcategory as you see bellow you have the groupname (which will then be your group POI name with the drone spawning settings below DroneBaseSetup: Random: - GroupName: XenuFortressP1 DronesMinMax: - 4 - 5 ReserveCount: 6 DroneProb: 1 Difficulty: 7 PresetStyle: 3 Stock: - Name: DroneSmallFast01Plasma Amount: 200 Extra: 0 - Name: EnemyDroneV2Minigun Amount: 400 Extra: 0 - Name: EnemyDroneV2Plasma Amount: 400 Extra: 0 - Name: DroneSmallFast01Plasma Amount: 500 Extra: 1 - Name: EnemyDroneV2Plasma Amount: 300 Extra: 1 - Name: DroneTroopsTransport Amount: 1 Extra: 2 - Name: ZiraxMale Amount: 500 Extra: 3 - Name: Crawler Amount: 250 Extra: 3 - Name: Overseer Amount: 250 Extra: 3
Yupe, I got that far. But how do you set it for FIXED location POI's? When you set UseFixed : True it then ignores anything under the Random: settings. And if you look at Fixed POI's: Fixed: - Type: BA_Alien # Type of blueprint (BA, SV, HV, CV) Prefab: BA_CeruliaFortress # Filename of blueprint Mode: Survival # Creative or Survival SubMode: Normal # Empty / Normal (only evaluated in Creative mode) [default: Normal] Name: Cerulia Fortress # Name of blueprint as displayed to player Pos: [ 2000, 10.0, 900 ] # Position coordinates Rot: [ 0, 0, 0 ] # Rotation angles InitPower: True # Set if POI should be initially powered, default: False There is no GroupName setting. Now you can set the GroupName when you create the Blueprint for the POI, but that will only link it in the Random: settings I have found script for Fixed under DroneBaseSetup: but that is in the space.yamls and it does allow for the fixed placement of drones, but it doesn't respawn drones are send attack drones against your bases. Fixed: - Name: DroneBaseSetupCerulia Pos: [ 2000, 10, 900 ] # position coordinates DroneOnDuty: - Name: DroneSmallFast01Minigun Pos: [ 2000, 150, 900 ] Radius: 350
As far as i know, i's not (yet?) possible to set a custom POI as a fixed drone base. On planets you can set 'DroneBaseAkua' In space it's 'MainDroneBase' EDIT: Try to set your POIs GroupName either to 'DroneBase', 'DroneBaseAkua' (if used on planet), or 'MainDroneBase'. Maybe that could work. But then the game would decide, what Dronebase (Stock or yours) to pick. But then there would be at least a chance that yours gets picked. /jmc
Under POI you need to specify the drone setup for that POI example POIs: Random: - GroupName: DroneBaseAkua DroneBaseSetup: DroneBaseAkua #Line to specify the setup for the drones CountMinMax: [1, 1] DroneProb: 1 DronesMinMax: [2, 3] ReserveCount: 3 SpawnPOINear: [] SpawnPOIAvoid: [] SpawnResource: [] Properties: - Key: Music Value: DarkSoundscape - Key: RegenAfter Value: 120 then you you need to make an entry in the DroneBaseSetup section DroneBaseSetup: Random: - GroupName: DroneBaseAkua DronesMinMax: [2, 3] ReserveCount: 3 DroneProb: 1 Difficulty: 5 PresetStyle: 2 Stock: - Name: DroneSmallFast01Rocket Amount: 100 - Name: DroneSmallFast01Minigun Amount: 300 - Name: DroneSmallSlow01Cannon Amount: 200 - Name: DroneSmallAttackBase Amount: Infinite Extra: 1 - Name: ZiraxMale Amount: 500 Extra: 3 - Name: ZiraxRocket Amount: 500 Extra: 3 - Name: Crawler Amount: 150 Extra: 3 - Name: AlienAssassinGrey Amount: 300 Extra: 3 - Name: DroneTroopsTransport Amount: Infinite Extra: 4 Fixed: []
