I hate saying it, but people are right the mod needs consolidated - heres why
As people asked many times, you really do need to consolidate these mods into one. Not only is a it a pain for admins, but when someone has to load all these mods on a modded server it creates major timeout issues. Sure a un modded server their probably isn't much of a issue. But once you get into a modded server with all the popular mods. Guess what happens. It causes timeout issues. I don't thing is necessarily the size of the mods, but the amount of individual mods plus size together. It's not even a server based issue, and even if it was, the majority of servers would have issues. This all happens on the client side. I can get my server to load up just fine with all the mods with yours. But the problem happens when a client tries to connect and it takes a long time with half the time causing a timeout error. People don't want to wait forever, nor do they want to wait forever and get a timeout message and have to retry again, or a few times. Not alone a new server just starting out. That server does not have a chance. I certainly wouldn't want to waste my time on a low or unpopulated server where its taking forever and I'm scratching my head wondering or thinking did the game crash? Then you get a timeout after waiting guess what happens, a new server gets selected.
The mod is great, its what we need in the game. Unfortunately the way its deployed kills it and ruins it. I really want to run this mod, but because how its setup I simply cant unless I want to play by myself in a ghost town which makes the mod useless.
A other suggestion or maybe this is more of a request. IMPLANTS. Many servers look for ways to increase the pvp action. You have a great platform to do this with. Make a table where you can sell implants for currency. Implants are one of the most under used items in this game. The game is about killing each other. This would make implants meaningfull and make your mod a huge benefit to the game once the timeout issue can get addressed.
For now I have to uninstall this mod even though I don't want too. But this is problably why it isn't as popular as it should be.

Yes it is extremely needed. As for now, there are like 13 capitalism mods or even more and these has to be downloaded seperatly. This means, lot's of people doesn't understand nor know that ARK system about mods is horribly bad. So it doesn't tell you that it is downloading a mod. Nope it just tells you (disconnected or to much time for server waiting etc.) So most people are givin up on connecting to your server because of this. Combine all capitalism mods into one would fix allot of waiting I think.

I also agree to this. 16 Mods looks extremely much so many people don't even join servers with many mods. We would like to have more mods but because of this we have to choose btw. what mod we can use so it doesn't look much. And btw. this mod is by far one of the best for this game. Thats my opinion :D

You have made some awesome changes, thank you so much. I am very impressed. What you came up with was even better. Dead or alive board that can be posted all over is so freaking awesome. You are the man!

I disagree, we only want the coins to spawn as currency and enable our own trading table and control currency through blueprints and events
