Scientists randomly spawn in the center of the map
Hello,

I'm not sure if this plugin is still being maintained. But this plugin is causing 4 Scientists to spawn together in the direct middle of the map. Can the author of this plugin please fix this? It would be greatly appreciated.
I did a bit of testing for this, and unfortunately (at least on my server) it seems like the plugin has a hard time finding certain monuments and spawns the AI in the center of the map instead. The exception to this was the trainyard, where the AI would both spawn at the location and at the center of the map.

I was able to disable AI at these locations to eliminate the random AI at the middle of the map:
  • LargeHarbor
  • Powerplant
  • Radtown
  • RocketFactory
  • SmallHarbor
  • Trainyard
Although it's not the ideal fix, it is a temporary one until this plugin gets an update.
We have the same problem, i hope K1lly0u will fix it. Otherwise our pve server are useless 

Hi guys, this might not be the best solutions, however it works for me. Killyou has another plugin called Custom Animal Spawns

https://umod.org/plugins/custom-animal-spawns

As default it doesn't contain Scientist or Murderers however. a quick modification and it does. bellow is a slightly edited version which includeds the scientists and murderers.

Moderator edit: Please do not post random versions of plugins in forum posts, thanks.

i have got the same Problem anyone have a fix?

Merged post

ok what i figuerd out: they are dublicating everything you set to spawn will spawn in the middle of the map too. if you set a Limit it will stop spawning them. but the other Places where they should spawn dont get the animals. Still looking for a Fix

Found a workaround! it depends on the seed it it is happening or not
4000 Size Seed 14 spawn in middle
4000 Size Seed 15 dont spawn in middle

So you need to try around a little but you can use it :)

@Agaros007 so this is just seed related?

Hello there !

Here is my situation, to find how to finally solve it :3

Size of the map : 4000
Seed : 61816

Scientists spawns :
- 5 at Airfield, Water Plant, Train Yard and PowerPlant
- 3 at harbors
- 2 at quarries

And finally I have about a dozen of scientists spawned at the center of the map.

Hope this can help ! <3

I also have the same issue you all are talking about. In my case, it seems that the total of Scientists and Animals I am adding to each specific monument are also spawning in the middle of the map. When I set this plugin up (by area) I took a count of the total of Scientists and Animals and set that total to + 10 (just to add a cushion).

In the "Maximum amount of animals to spawn": section of the .json file, since I added 85 actual Scientists & Animals, I added + 10 so it was a total of 95.

Even with that value, as the plugin loaded I kept getting the RED error telling me that I was over the limit of set entities, so I went back and added 10 more to that value. This did not help until I reached a value of 180 which is a HELL of a cusion!

So, Yes it would be nice to have this fixed because this is a great plugin and any player that happens to wonder into the center of my map gets totaly wrecked without a chance!

it wont be fixed science the developer made a payed plugin with zombies only

Thanks for the reply!

Pretty much abandoned, same as ProximityAlert , Wulf has updated both for Rust update but thats about it for a while.

I think it's more about the author having limited time. ;) If someone has a suggested fix though, patching is there.

I am patient , been waiting for about 2 1/2  years for the proximity alert to be fixed and reckon i can wait a bit longer :)

He probably needs someone to help him out Roth all the plugins he has, little time to monitor for issues.
