Unsure how to customize gather rate
Broken and all over the place, someone help. Yesterday I did it and it looks fine

Info: Used Notepad++ | Opend in Config file (where it only saved to after extracting from plugins) | called: GatherManager.json?

lies.

It says it here on the page but not in my file.

Console Commands

  • dispenser.scale <dispenser:tree|ore|corpse> <multiplier> -- Increase the scale of the resources available in dispensers
  • gather.rate <type:dispenser|pickup|quarry|survey> "<resource>" <multiplier> -- Increase the gathering rate for resource


Gathering Rate

A few examples:

  • gather.rate dispenser Wood 10 -- Gain 10 times as much wood from hitting trees
  • gather.rate dispenser Stones 5 -- Gain 5 times as much stones when hitting those rocks
  • gather.rate dispenser Cloth 10 -- Gain 10 times as much cloth when gathering from corpses
  • gather.rate pickup Stones 10 -- Gain 10 times as much stones when picking up that collectible stone item
  • gather.rate quarry Stones 20 -- Gain 20 times as much stones from the Mining Quarry
  • gather.rate survey "Sulfur Ore" 5 -- Gain 5 times as much Sulfur Ore from using Survey Charges

You adjust your gather rates by typing those commands into console (IE : gather.rate Dispenser cloth 10) and then it will put that information in your GatherManager.json file. My file has this because I have set these rates by typing them into console : 

"GatherResourceModifiers": {
"Cloth": 2.0,
"Metal Ore": 2.0,
"Stones": 2.0,
"Sulfur Ore": 2.0,
"Wood": 2.0
},

You'll see your file actually has "GatherResourceModifiers": {} because you haven't set any rates.



Merged post

Or you can just highlight this in your file : "GatherResourceModifiers": {} 

then copy mine in it's place : 

"GatherResourceModifiers": {
"Cloth": 2.0,
"Metal Ore": 2.0,
"Stones": 2.0,
"Sulfur Ore": 2.0,
"Wood": 2.0
},

Then go into your GatherManager.json config and edit them to suit your server.

how about for all so the "*" symbol or is it just those 5? 

also does it apply to harvistable items ex. Leather/Bonefragments?

it's weird cuz when I downloaded it yesterday it was so different like easier to see and read.
Honestly, it is easy to follow. Just read it slowly :)
