uMod - Extremely low drop rate for electric fuses - Better Loot

Posted 6 years ago

Hi all - my users have been complaining electric fuses have been dropping at a very low rate. Many have said they've only seen 1 per wipe.

I do not have any rarity set for any items. I can confirm fuses are in my loot table for barrels, crates, and large sunken crates.

I tried changing the rarity to 3, then 2, and now 1. I could barely find one single fuse when setting to 3 or 2. After changing to 1, I do see some spawning but it still seems lower than vanilla rates. Any ideas? Did FP change their drop rate? I don't see anything in their changelog past few months if they did. I'm not having any issues with other loot.

Thanks in advance

I didn't have it in the rarity menu and we were not getting any drops. To me, that is indicating an issue of some sort. Testing on my vanilla test server it shows up often.

I also double-checked my plugins and not seeing any conflicts. I did a quick search on "fuse" in all config, data, etc directories and nothing manipulating fuses except Better Loot.

While this may be a workaround - albeit very undesirable for my need - it may indicate an overall issue with the plugin. That's why we bring it up.

It is a matter of statistics, The more items that are introduced to the game the less chance for a specific item to be "picked" for a loot container, When you add the "seasonal" items it reduces them even more, I have deleted a very large amount of unwanted tems from the loottable to better reflect the needs of the server,
Since the introduction of this plugin there are now a very large amount of weapons with various types of ammunition, more construction tools (and parts) , horses and equipment, electrical items, car parts and for some reason "sunburn" items.
AND it is not a "workaround" it is what you have an editable loottable for !
