I've been trying to get the custom_event function to work and any time I try to set it up the supply drop that spawns in has no items once it hits the ground. Any help would be appreciated.

 "test": {
        "minCrates": 1,
        "maxCrates": 1,
        "cratesGap": 50,
        "despawnMinutes": 3,
        "crateAirResistance": 0.6,
        "useCustomLootTable": true,
        "CustomLootListName": "test1",
        "planeSpeed": 300,
        "additionalheight": 0,
        "notificationInfo": "testing"
      },

{
        "DropType Name": "test1",
        "Minimum amount of items to spawn": 7,
        "Maximum amount of items to spawn": 14,
        "Custom Loot Contents": [
          {
            "Shortname": "metal.fragments",
            "Minimum amount of item": 100,
            "Maximum amount of item": 500,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          },
          {
            "Shortname": "gears",
            "Minimum amount of item": 150,
            "Maximum amount of item": 250,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          },
          {
            "Shortname": "syringe.medical",
            "Minimum amount of item": 100,
            "Maximum amount of item": 500,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          },
          {
            "Shortname": "largemedkit",
            "Minimum amount of item": 50,
            "Maximum amount of item": 500,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          },
          {
            "Shortname": "explosives",
            "Minimum amount of item": 50,
            "Maximum amount of item": 250,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          },
          {
            "Shortname": "metal.facemask",
            "Minimum amount of item": 5,
            "Maximum amount of item": 10,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          }
        ]
      },

Just looking at your config, you have a min of 7 and max of 14 BUT the items you have listed do not even equal to the min that you had set? I would say just off the top of my head that is the issue.

Just tried using your default settings and it still didn't spawn anything in the drop. here is the settings. all I did was rename the droptype

 "test": {
        "minCrates": 1,
        "maxCrates": 1,
        "cratesGap": 50,
        "despawnMinutes": 5,
        "crateAirResistance": 0.6,
        "useCustomLootTable": true,
        "CustomLootListName": "test1",
        "planeSpeed": 300,
        "additionalheight": 0,
        "notificationInfo": "testing"
      },

{
        "DropType Name": "test1",
        "Minimum amount of items to spawn": 2,
        "Maximum amount of items to spawn": 6,
        "Custom Loot Contents": [
          {
            "Shortname": "metal.fragments",
            "Minimum amount of item": 1,
            "Maximum amount of item": 4,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          },
          {
            "Shortname": "metal.facemask",
            "Minimum amount of item": 1,
            "Maximum amount of item": 1,
            "Skin ID": 0,
            "Display Name": null
          }
        ]
      },

I am having this same issue.  after renaming the custom_event and adding several items to the list, I have "useCustomLootTable" set to true, and I get an empty drop when I call ad.massdrop 1 my_event ...  

So...  I then tried specifying a custom list in the command, I try ad.massdrop 1 my_event my_event - then I get an error

well, at least I figured out how to fix the issue...  The plugin isn't set to auto-read/add the custom events.  they have to be hard-coded into the plugin code itself.

what do you mean? Like I need to add them to the .cs file?
