Better Burning Barrels

Description
URL : https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3005051188
Name: Better Burning Barrels
Tags: Environment, Mechanics, Props, Mor Target: Server-side mod


Description

This mod lets you add burning barrels at specific locations that are on fire and never go out or optionally turn on and off with a variety of configurable options, such as the time of day, temperature, player proximity or even your own scripted logic via injected Enforce script.

You can also whitelist player ID's to create barrels that only turn on for your teammates to create interesting deathmatch / capture-the-flag scenarios.

It's probably easier to talk about the things Better Burning Barrels cannot do!

Installation

Subscript to the Mod then in the @Better Burning Barrels mod folder you will find a README.md with detailed setup instructions and examples.

Limitations

The barrels are placed using a JSON file that is read during server boot-up. So they cannot be moved around or added in-game with admin tools or created by players.

If this is especially annoying for you, if you have any other ideas for improvements, please raise a ticket on Discord.

Credits

This mod was inspired by the barrels at Dr.Jones Trader. I made mine because I wanted Burning Barrels at Dmitri's TraderPlus mod that did not have them but then got very carried away implementing all the proximity, time of day, temperature features.

I looked at the discord, ive got no permissions to view anything and I can't type anything, I get the red X symbol
.
The problem is that players are stuck on the 2025, even if I clear steam cache I cannot go back to the 2023 version.
When I remove the mod and re-intall, I get the 2025 too.
It's because its a newer version so steam ignores the old one, it happens when you revert back, so the only way is to re-upload. I cannot get the version that is on steam.
Without this new players will have the 2023, and old players have the 2025.

Hi Daxst3r, the new version is backward comparable with the old one, you just need to update your server so that it matches your users version. What you described is the normal behaviour for mods on steam. If you have more info please raise a ticket on the discord, as I don't frequently check this workshop page.

Please re-upload the old version, people who had the new one from steam, they cannot roll it back without deleting their steam cache, it just keeps loading in the 2025 version.

@5treet - you are welcome to use it on a private / monetized server. Sorry I have not tested performance hit but might investigate this, I imagine it's small though. I would love to know how you get on with it. Please visit the discord there are public and private support areas if you have any issues. https://discord.gg/WMnBuMJP
