New System: Overriding/Modifying Map Spawners via INI

There's a powerful new INI-driven system to override, add, or substract all NPC spawners within the ARK. In particular you can use this to adjust the spawners of a PGARK to your precise liking. Here are some examples of how it works:

Add these INI values, as many as you want, into your Game.ini's [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode] section.

For example, this will REMOVE Trikes and Sauropod entries from the PGARK's Grassland Spawner, and it will remove Trikes and Ptero's from the PGARK's Jungle Spawner (you could then do a ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer afterwards, to add them back in with different rates, if desired):

ConfigSubtractNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesGrassland_PGM_C",NPCSpawnEntries=( (NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Trike_Character_BP_C")),(NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Sauropod_Character_BP_C")) ), NPCSpawnLimits=( (NPCClassString="Trike_Character_BP_C"),(NPCClassString="Sauropod_Character_BP_C") ) )

ConfigSubtractNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesJungle_PGM_C",NPCSpawnEntries=( (NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Trike_Character_BP_C")),(NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Ptero_Character_BP_C")) ), NPCSpawnLimits=( (NPCClassString="Trike_Character_BP_C"),(NPCClassString="Ptero_Character_BP_C") ) )

This will ADD a Giganotosaurus Spawner to the PGARK's beach spawner, but limiting it to only 1 Giga per spawner (via the NPCSpawnLimits):

ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesBeach_PGM_C",NPCSpawnEntries=( (AnEntryName="GigaSpawner",EntryWeight=1000.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Gigant_Character_BP_C"))), NPCSpawnLimits=( (NPCClassString="Gigant_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.01) ) )

This will OVERRIDE the PGARK's beach spawner to spawn NOTHING but Gigas and Rexes in equal weights and limits... OUCH!

ConfigOverrideNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesGrassland_PGM_C",NPCSpawnEntries=( (AnEntryName="GigaSpawner",EntryWeight=1.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Gigant_Character_BP_C")) , (AnEntryName="RexSpawner",EntryWeight=1.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Rex_Character_BP_C")) ), NPCSpawnLimits=( (NPCClassString="Gigant_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.5) , (NPCClassString="Rex_Character_BP_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.5) ) )

Using this technique, you can modify all of the spawners of any map. It will even take Mod creature class names, as long as you know their short (summonable) class names!

Here's a list of all the spawner class names on TheIsland, TheCenter, ScorchedEarth, and PGARK for your handy reference:
