Hey, first off, awesome plugin but I think I broke it. I am getting a reponse of "Try Again, a manual spawn was already requested" in game when I use command /rbe. Was wondering if you knew a fix? Thank you.
"Try Again, a manual spawn was already requested" error
it's not an error. wait 2 seconds then try again. or wait until your maintained / scheduled events have spawned.
Ive waited 2 days
then it's not configured right. the only reason you will get that message is if it's trying to spawn a base.
I updated the plugin because it quit working recently but it's still not working and when I call for an event, I get that same message "Try Again, a manual spawn was already requested". I'm restarting my server to see if that helps.

ok, something I found in the new RaidableBases.json is that my list of raidable bases is empty...now it just has this:
},
"Raidable Bases": {
"Buildings": {}
},
when updating the plugin is it supposed to wipe out my list of defined bases?
the previous .json file had this in there which is now missing and I'm not sure what else is also missing.
},
"Raidable Bases": {
"Buildings": {
"hardcouch1": {
"Additional Bases For This Difficulty": {
"hardcouch2": [
{
"Option": "stability",
"Value": "false"
},
{
"Option": "autoheight",
"Value": "false"
},
{
"Option": "height",
"Value": "1.1"
}
],
"hardcouch3": [
{
"Option": "stability",

},
{
"Option": "autoheight",

I'm noticing that this older file above is missing my previously defined easy and medium bases but the hard are in it. I see there's a folder oxide\data\RaidableBases\Profiles and it it are some of my bases but others are missing. I suspect that somewhere along the line the conversion to the new system didn't include some of bases.
I found a file here that still includes all of my easy/medium/hard bases defined. oxide\config\RaidableBases.backup.json so how do I get these to convert into the new system automatically? seems the conversion previously missed much of my bases.
i've already answered this in multiple threads. next time search for an answer. i bet theres at least 10 threads with this question. a question that wouldn't need to be asked if everyone read the update notes
you don't edit the config for loot or bases anymore. you do this in the data oxide/data/RaidableBases/Profiles directory
you don't edit loot in profiles anymore. you do this in the loot files in the oxide/data/RaidableBases/ directory
RaidableBases.backup.json is not the right file
the right file has backup_old_system in the name
I'm sure it's annoying to have to repeat yourself but for what it's worth I did search, that's how I found this thread where another guy was having the same issue.
RaidableBases.backup.json is the one that still has my old stuff in it, I suspect this is a manual backup I made before installing an update as that's usually my procedure.
I did see the other backup_old files as well but they were missing the bases in them IIRC.
Is there a way to take that backup file I have that was from before the new style of doing things (RaidableBases.backup.json) and maybe rename it to something the new system would look for to convert it automatically into the new style with folders? I'm trying to avoid manually editing .json files/folder as I'm not a programmer and so I have no clue what the various symbols and specific spacing mean. It took me a very long time to get the previous version working because of minor typos I made that completely broke it. So if there's a way to make this conversion complete properly and automatically that would be helpful.
backup_old_system contains everything. it is a literal copy of the old config system before it is converted to the new data system. it exists solely for users that fail to read the patch notes, and corrupt their install by continuing to edit loot or bases in the config file or some other means
zip all the raidablebases config files, backup files, and the data files in oxide/data/RaidableBases/ post it here from dropbox and ill take a look at it.
