hey im playing on a server and the gatherers work sometimes and sometimes not what can it be? Standby modus? I have waiting by side for 1 hour and nothing change, space is 14/20 and i have 15x soup so what can be the problem?

I'm playing around with this mod, and while Erim take my sweet cake just fine, the Miner staunchly refuses to accept my delicious Fria Curry! :( As in: I can not give the dude anything foody, so can't turn him on.

Hey

how i can add more to the erim so he gets all artefakts? because now he gets only 11 Artefakte
Himitsu no Yami 25 Jul, 2023 @ 8:15pm 
you have to manually add the [ResourceGatherers] bit yourself. As well as anything you want under it. The game doesn't do it for you.

where can i find GUS.ini file i get its GameUserSettings.ini, but i cant find [ResourceGatherers] there, so is there another for mods?

Could you make the decay last longer so you could just load them up with like 20 days of food?

i like the idea but the amount of fish meat she is getting especially compared to the beer i have to make for her is so insanely low
GreySkull 8 Jan, 2023 @ 12:06am 
The food you are required to feed them. Makes this mod a pain in the ass to use. The fact that they just set there and do not move is just a boring mod. Thanks for trying anyway.
Quasidivine 11 Oct, 2022 @ 11:21pm 
The NPCS don't move and only collect in a set area when put down. The food they require is far more difficult to acquire than the resources they collect.

This mod works with Human NPCs?

ah it seems if the server has a restart the gatherers need to ne re-enabled to gather ^^ just click stop/start and its gonan be fine again
Penguin 3 Jun, 2022 @ 11:56pm 
im using this mod on my server, it was working perfectly fine for a few days. But not it seems like the gatherers are not gathering anymore. I do have fuel consumption tweaked, stack sizes tweaked and some resources gathering multiplier inscreased. could any of this break it ?
Maurice 28 Apr, 2022 @ 8:38am 
- Add Ini for each Resource Gather quantity / time
- Add Ini for food consumption rate

Otherwise nice mod
otheofoolo 16 Apr, 2022 @ 8:05pm 
Pretty good mod. Only issue is quarry man requires food that's way harder to make and he makes common stone. So a bit pointless. A must if you want a fair way to get 200 of the listed materials a day. If only you could use chitin as well
Benacus 26 Mar, 2022 @ 10:38pm 
idk if this has been mentioned but heres a suggestion: make a table or fridge where you can put all the different kinds of food and every res gatherer can get from. Kinda like a generator.
Mr.Bons4i 21 Mar, 2022 @ 3:19pm 
Can you please make it open source? thank you in advance
Tabbs 17 Feb, 2022 @ 2:43am 
Question do they need to be near resources to harvest them ?
Grumphy_Bear 30 Jan, 2022 @ 9:58pm 
for some reasson this mod wont work today.
dont know why but they eat food but dont deliver anything what so ever atm.

@sudokrypt Singleplayer
sudokrypt  [author] 28 Jan, 2022 @ 1:30pm 
@Trevor - hmmmm not sure what could cause that, are you playing single player or on a server?
Tr3vor00 28 Jan, 2022 @ 8:26am 
I have been using this mod for a while now on my relatively recently started survival, and I noticed that after a while it starts bugging itself and after having done its work cycle it does not restart automatically, despite having put the fuel of it needs and then to solve it I have to turn it off and on again losing an additional unit of fuel.
DenDi 27 Jan, 2022 @ 8:22am 
Best mod for solo game!
roscoe6894 25 Jan, 2022 @ 8:30pm 
as fuel for element gatherer, could use high end fertilized eggs?
bigpuppymandestroyer 25 Jan, 2022 @ 3:20pm 
Sudo the element gatherer favourite food could be Wyvern Milk or the Reaper Pheromone Gland.
Tr3vor00 25 Jan, 2022 @ 6:39am 
You could put mutton as fuel or honey, there are few resources that can be found in all the maps (I'm writing via google translator since my English sucks)
sudokrypt  [author] 25 Jan, 2022 @ 6:01am 
I am considering the element gatherer but as it is the most expensive item in the game I am not sure what a reasonable fuel would be for infinite element
sudokrypt  [author] 25 Jan, 2022 @ 5:59am 
GameUserSettings.ini is the file
Tr3vor00 25 Jan, 2022 @ 5:54am 
Please put the guy for the element
HentajMaster_PL 24 Jan, 2022 @ 3:24pm 
What is exactly the name of file, in with is possible to edit the ini settings?
sudokrypt  [author] 24 Jan, 2022 @ 11:12am 
no he will generate the resources over time
Watcher_Of_Kleins 24 Jan, 2022 @ 10:07am 
I'm new to using mods. I created the exterminator and fed him but he is just standing still. What exactly is suppose to happen? Do i have to place him in a certain area?
Juice 22 Jan, 2022 @ 6:45pm 
@sudokrypt Just had to update the server mods.
sudokrypt  [author] 22 Jan, 2022 @ 4:47pm 
@Juice - no problem, what was the solution if you don’t mind me asking someone else in the discord is having a similar issue
Juice 22 Jan, 2022 @ 3:08pm 
@sudokrypt I did manage to fix it thank you. Was on the server end and not your mod. Sorry to bother you.
sudokrypt  [author] 22 Jan, 2022 @ 1:43pm 
@Maurice - I have considered that, I may add one in a later patch

@Juice - that's weird I haven't seen or heard of that issue before. have you managed to sort it out or is it still a problem?
Maurice 22 Jan, 2022 @ 12:54pm 
You should add a resource gatherer for element of any kind. Perhaps element dust with some expensive fuel.
Juice 21 Jan, 2022 @ 6:52pm 
Hello, I'm having issues placing the gatherers on our server we place them and they just don't place even if they're green.
sudokrypt  [author] 21 Jan, 2022 @ 10:36am 
lol yeh im so confused by the Chinese modders linking there mods here but I will just keep deleting them :)

glad to hear you're liking the mod, making fertilized eggs would be difficult as they would have no parents to inherit stats from, if you meant un-fertilized eggs, then that could be doable.

there is a link to a new discord I created for anyone who wants to discuss the mods, only a couple of people joined so far but if anyone wants to discuss changes or other mod ideas feel free to hop in and say hi :)
deblake60 21 Jan, 2022 @ 10:22am 
@Sudokrypt: Damn. Seems that the Chinese modders have to get their dickprints all over your stuff? (HuangX5Mu this time).

On your MOD, I am not having any issues, and thanks for the info on tweaking the ini files. Too bad, they can't make fertilized dino eggs. lol
Smashk 21 Jan, 2022 @ 7:01am 
1000s per minute sounds "yummy" :D
sudokrypt  [author] 20 Jan, 2022 @ 1:11pm 
@roscoe6894
lol sorry the gatherers don't like the cold :)

maybe I will add a pelt gather in a later patch
sudokrypt  [author] 20 Jan, 2022 @ 1:06pm 
@Smashk - whilst I understand your comment this is mainly meant for late game players (hence the level requirements) and is there to enable late game players to not have to farm materials.

The food is a little expensive but seeing as with 2 INI settings you could gather 1000s per minute I disagree that you could farm more in the same time.

But hey your entitled to your opinion and if you don't think the mod is useful then don't use it :)
sudokrypt  [author] 20 Jan, 2022 @ 1:00pm 
No the amount gathered is managed by the INI settings in the description
sudokrypt  [author] 20 Jan, 2022 @ 12:57pm 
No that posted link had nothing to do with the mod and is not required.
deblake60 20 Jan, 2022 @ 12:49pm 
Hey @Sudokrypt, does the link posted by @Titan have anything to do with your mod? Is it needed?
Tobitoben 19 Jan, 2022 @ 10:39am 
Hi, very interesting idea! Is the amount gathered bound to the server or singleplayer gathering rates?
Smashk 19 Jan, 2022 @ 8:18am 
Hi! At the time ingame where you are able to produce all that special food for them you will dont need theses npcs anymore.
15 of each product every 10 minutes or so u dont need anymore when you have an Industrial cooker to produce the food for it.
You easily gather 1000 times more when you simply farm it.

But its really a nice idea.
roscoe6894 18 Jan, 2022 @ 7:15pm 
what about pelt?
sudokrypt  [author] 18 Jan, 2022 @ 3:05pm 
@Loopyuk32
Erim is correct there is no max for QuantityMulti go as high as you want.

Base resources given per generation is typically random between 1 - 5 and the QuantityMulti just multiplies that figure so the 1 - 5 becomes 5 - 25 for most items at the now default figure of 5.0.

But if you want to put it too 100 then you will just get 100 - 500 per generation.

I only put a Max on Craft Speed as that decreases the generation interval so all the functions generating the resources are happening more often and could affect server performance.

If you put CraftSpeed to 100 then every Gatherer on the server would be running its generation code every 3 seconds which becomes a lot of extra calculation especially if many tribes have 10 of them running each.

So in short if you want more resources up the QuantityMulti and not the CraftSpeed as it is kinder on the server :)

Sorry for the long winded answer
Erim 18 Jan, 2022 @ 12:07pm 
@loopyuk32 there is no max value for the quantitymulti
