Infos about the next Update and Beta branch of the mod.
The new update will go live 4.April.2021 at 1pm CEST. If no critical bugs get found.

Info for all server admins. The update will requir you to create new Loot Box, Dino Spawner, Kill Missions and Tame Missions files that. This is because of changes I made to them.

Info on the changes that come with the update.
-There is now no limit on how many LootBoxes or Dino Spawners that can be added to the shop.
-In Dino Spawners you can know set if it should be tamed, spawned with a saddle and the saddle quality.
-The Dino Spawner Icon now Shows if the dino gets spawned tamed or not and if iit gets a saddle or not.
-You can now create Kill and Tame Missions that dont spawn dinos and there for requir the player to search for them. You can now set a max distance from the player at witch a Mission should spawn Dinos.
-Made the inventory Overlay more organized.
-Changed how mission Dinos get spawned to prevent them from spawning all stucked together or in not playable areas.
-Cooldowns and Mission timers are now shown in h:m:s instead of just secounds.
-And many other qol changes.
-Fixed all reported and some other exploits.
-4 new gus.ini settings:
UseCustomInfoScreen= ( If true alt+I will bring up an Ui with the Welcome message set in
the gus and the buttons to select the mod lang and a Discord button )
DiscordLink= ( you can put a link to an discord here if the player then clikcs the button
the link will get opened in the steam browser )
SpawnedMissionDinosDontLeaveCorpse= ( If true spawned mission dinos will not leave a corps that players can harvest )
GoldcoinInterval= ( With this you can change the interval at witch players get Goldcoins over time )

90% of the mods code got rewrote and optimized.

I dicided to release a beta version of this update so people can test it and admins can create the new files.

Sounds like some great changes, Loving the taming and kill missions not spawning dinos change that will be good.
Not sure whether that's a typo in the SpawnedMissionDinosDontLeaveCorps or not tho as corpse has an e?

Awesome changes! I will throw this on my test server and give some feedback in the next couple days. Thanks!

Feedback (will edit this as I find more):

-language selector pops up after each respawn. shouldn't do this (seems to show up every time the buff is applied)
-escape does not close the shop. not sure if this is possible to do
-logging in to existing character does not show buff until transfer/respawn
-clicking the Discord icon (with a proper link set) gives an http 100/105 error, does not load. requires quotation marks, works fine.
-SpawnedMissionDinosDontLeaveCorps and SpawnedMissionDinosDontLeaveCorpse does not seem to work, corpse is left behind.

Requests:
-separate tabs or selectors for items and dinos
-server option to change hotkey for info
-server option to change gold income interval

hud bug, no choice for dino spawn tamed or no .
KAVAN  [developer] 5 Apr, 2021 @ 8:55am 
Could you post a screenshot ?
KAVAN  [developer] 5 Apr, 2021 @ 10:01am 
What is your in game resolucion and UI scaling ?
To my it just looks like that the check box for tamed or not is just way of to the right because the text is so big in your game. The box is there like you can see on the screenshots.
