looks good, so hard to find a good poop mod

1) whats max range i can set this at?
2) what number do i input for almost instant fertilizer crafting?

@shinygati - Is the <CraftingSpeed=1> number: Higher = Faster craft speed or slower? So for faster crafting, it needs to be below values of 1?

Noticed the download for this was extremely large (visual / code error with steam) - I didn't have the issue last year with my ark additions, and structures + mods but now my game crashes with a white page list error. Hopefully there can be a patch on this

anyone know where to change the config on a server from nitrado?

@GreaseBall There's no reason for it not to be compatible considering those are completely different mods.
THE PUHH EATER 1 Dec, 2023 @ 11:38pm 
Is This compatible with mods like ark additions and animals of atlas?"

It would be great to enable/disable the fertilizer crafting. Its nice to collect poop but i would like to disable fertilizer making.

it dosent work ?
Gamblu 5 Apr, 2023 @ 2:27am 
Okay, thanks :)
Shinygati  [author] 5 Apr, 2023 @ 1:35am 
It's the GameUserSettings.ini the serversettings ini is not the correct file that you should be changing.
Gamblu 4 Apr, 2023 @ 11:21pm 
@shinyhati, ini, you mean gameserverSettings.ini correct?
Shinygati  [author] 4 Apr, 2023 @ 9:56pm 
@Gamblu It should be working, i have it set to 80 on my server and it only takes about a minute to craft, i would double check that the ini is correct.
Gamblu 4 Apr, 2023 @ 3:55pm 
HI, I have my own server and I installed this mod and placed it in my ini, yet it's still not crafting fast even when I did CraftingSpeed=500, shouldn't 500 be good enough for crafting or it's to slow? should I make it like 50000?
LunaCat 3 Apr, 2023 @ 5:43pm 
This is awesome. I love it.

Where to find the INI file for the MOD?:steamthumbsup:
Pixie 3 Mar, 2023 @ 7:33am 
Ah ok, so its not me :D

Thank you
Shinygati  [author] 3 Mar, 2023 @ 5:59am 
@Pixie it is capped to 450 because crafting becomes stuck when 500 or more slots are completely full.
Pixie 3 Mar, 2023 @ 5:45am 
And the "funny" thing is - when I stand in front of it - it shows me 0/500 - but if I open it, is there 0/450
Pixie 3 Mar, 2023 @ 5:41am 
Hi, I tryed to put more then 500 in the ini.
Did not work - so I wrote all back, like you write in description - but since then it "only" takes 450.
I deinstalled the mod, tried everything, but still no change.
And in the ini its the same like in your description - what did i wrong?
MidnightsFX 2 Mar, 2023 @ 7:56am 
Sweet! knowing the cap is 100 is excellent thanks!
Shinygati  [author] 2 Mar, 2023 @ 12:21am 
@MidnightsFX It would be yes but it's capped at 100 to prevent lag/server performance issues.
MidnightsFX 1 Mar, 2023 @ 11:27pm 
@Shinygati does that mean CraftingSpeed=10000 will make it ten thousand times faster to craft fertilizer?
Shinygati  [author] 1 Mar, 2023 @ 10:20pm 
@MidnightsFX Increasing the crafting speed will make it take less time to craft.
MidnightsFX 1 Mar, 2023 @ 10:19pm 
What is the valid value range for CraftingSpeed? Does positive make it faster/slower?
Alendi Istari 14 Feb, 2023 @ 1:38am 
Thanks for the fixes. I'm very happy with this mod now.
Shinygati  [author] 14 Feb, 2023 @ 1:07am 
@SYNCHANG That is an issue on steam/nitrado's end and can happen when any mod updates, just resub to the mod on the client or restart the server and it should resolve it.
SYNCHANG 13 Feb, 2023 @ 8:32pm 
It seems that the version of MOD in NITRADO is old and not supported. Please respond properly.
Shinygati  [author] 4 Feb, 2023 @ 1:28am 
@pajamapants199 This doesn't transfer poop to other structures, it only transfers fertilizer to crop plots and crafts fertilizer automatically.
ClearExitz 3 Feb, 2023 @ 6:46pm 
I am having trouble getting this to work. It is collecting poop and storing it but not transferring it to compost bins. At first i thought maybe it was because they were s+ bins but then it didn't work on the normal one either.
Shinygati  [author] 2 Feb, 2023 @ 8:41am 
New update has been pushed out, this should hopefully fix the issues some people were having.
Alendi Istari 31 Jan, 2023 @ 6:07am 
This mod seems to have a serious problem. If the collector inventory is full, it won't make fertilizer. Since it won't make fertilizer, it just sits there and does nothing. The mod needs to be changed to ignore being full as the manufacture of fertilizer will automatically free up three slots. Otherwise, this mod is kinda useless.

As a work-around I'm trying to figure out a collection interval that will keep it from filling up so quickly but, frankly, it's a terrible workaround as the interval will differ for each location and number of animals pooping.
Shinygati  [author] 28 Dec, 2022 @ 2:29pm 
@Sabino Blas did you enable the option?
Ƙєṭα 28 Dec, 2022 @ 1:47pm 
Hi , sorry to ask this dumb question but i have it on my server and it doesnt collect poop :x
Pixie 18 Dec, 2022 @ 4:48am 
Its me again. I am wondering if it would be possible to set an option to the mod, that the poop just vanish somehow, cause I really don't need that lot of poop and collecting it gets annoying.
Just an idea, cause the idea and the mod is fantastic.
FlameFern 14 Dec, 2022 @ 9:49pm 
This mod works perfectly, thank you for a easy fix to my many poop problems! =D
Natsugi_RP 26 Nov, 2022 @ 4:14pm 
Is it weird that this is my favorite mod that I run on my server?
MrMo 25 Nov, 2022 @ 5:55am 
Where to find the INI file for the MOD?
Warlocc 18 Nov, 2022 @ 10:30am 
What's the engram name for this?
Pixie 7 Nov, 2022 @ 1:46pm 
Bdw: it would be so great if the NPC would empty this collector :D
Pixie 25 Oct, 2022 @ 8:30pm 
Thats ok, I do not it, Normally I just through into the water ;)
But for testing I put a compost bin at its side
Shinygati  [author] 25 Oct, 2022 @ 7:46pm 
@Pixie No problem, just keep in mind that if poop ever goes missing it means that the inventory was full and it started distributing to other nearby compost bins.
Pixie 25 Oct, 2022 @ 7:39pm 
It works and I LOVE IT!
Thanks for the great work
Pixie 23 Oct, 2022 @ 1:43pm 
Thank you
Shinygati  [author] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 11:23am 
The range is about 12 foundations which is the same range as a feeding trough.
Pixie 23 Oct, 2022 @ 9:24am 
Can I see the range? Some are very near, I will put them for trying next to it.
Its empty and I don't know where its gone - i had some in, but not very much. I added today some other decorations mods - maybe there is something not working togehter.

Thanks a lot for answering
Shinygati  [author] 23 Oct, 2022 @ 9:03am 
@Pixie Make sure that your dino's are in range and that the collector is not full, collecting can actually get fill up very quickly.
