I'd like to hire a mod developer.
I'd like to contact the creator of this mod, but unfortunately steam does not expose your email address and does not allow to send a message directly.


I'm looking for a mod developer to make a rebalance modification and I'm ready to pay for the work.

Intro

We are going to run a cluster of rebalanced ARK servers, but some aspects of the game cannot be configured via the standard server configuration tools. Thus we are looking for a mod that will tweak the desired game mechanics.

You can also contact me by email: slsh550@gmail.com


I would like to know which of the below points can be implemented and if something can not be directly implemented as I described then I'm ready to research any alternative solutions.


Payment method:

USD (Visa / MC transfer or any other form of payment) or any cryptocurrency.



Here is a list of changes that we are willing to implement:


1. Modify the output count of certain craftable items.
(Example: we want 5 simple bullets to be crafted from 1 metal ingot and 3 gunpowder)

2. Separate gestation speed multipliers for different species.
Currently, there are MatingIntervalMultiplier / EggHatchSpeedMultiplier / BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier server settings. However, these equally affect all species of the server. We need to set the maturation time to 15 minutes for a Compy, 10 hours for a T-Rex and 72 hours for a Wyvern, therefore we need separate multipliers for different species.

3. Separate taming speed multipliers for different species.

4. Separate food drain multipliers for different species.

5. Increase passive food drain for tamed dinos.
Currently, tamed creatures consume a disproportionately little amount of food compared to those that a player uses. This means that a player can tame 20 Rexes and it will pose no challenge to feed them if they are idle. However, if we significantly increase the `dinoFoodDrainMultiplier`, then this will cause a fully fed Rex to starve right after 20 meters of sprinting. That's why we need separate passive food drain value increase

6. Delayed wild creatures respawn.
Creatures respawn at a certain time of day by default. We want to tweak the respawn time of wild creatures without affecting the day-night cycle length. (Example: skip some days before respawn, i.e. respawn wild creatures only at each 5th day)

7. Mechanic: unclaim tamed creatures after tribe members death.

After a death of any tribe member, his tribe's tamed creatures in a radius X around the dead player become unclaimed if there are no allied tribemates in a radius 2X around the tamed creature.
(Example_1: a player is riding a Rex and another Rex is following him at a short distance. The player got killed. Both Rexes must become unclaimed)
(Example_2: two players from one tribe are riding Rexes close to each other. One player got killed. No one of the Rexes must be unclaimed because there is still an allied player within the 2X distance around each of them. The second player got killed. Now both Rexes must be unclaimed)

8. Remove metal and tek structures damage from Arthropluera bite.
