bad idea i downvote cuz it will make tek unabtainable via you nee electronics you noob

hellow Rabbit excuses me, I need you in the game for ARK how to remove the " Rare Mushroom " of the game. Because I want to create an economy and " Rare Mushroom " is a mode main craft item in my server.
I added you steam , uses simple words plz I am French .

Mod not working?

Please update ( i love this mod but cant run it since a lot of engrams are missing ie: electronics) this mod would be perfect with the Arkaans Coins for my PVP RP based server because i could control the inflation and economy.

Available for public server ? if so, how to install it and how does it work ?

Apologies. I took an advanced class during a summer semester at Uni and my father passed away recently. I just haven't had the drive to do much with this >.<. I'll get back on the ball asap!

work this with 196.0?

Any updates on this? Gone quiet..

I think this is a good idea, but do the items that need pearls to craft (like Spino saddle) have a substitute, or are you still using the pearls?

Came back to check on this because I think it's a fantastic idea. Ignore the haters who don't understand the purpose or are whining because admins could abuse it (news flash: admins already have the power to cheat like hell if they want to). I'm very excited to see you are working on a new version that doesn't require removing pearls. Keep up the good work!

best way to win to survive would be to own all the pearls =P then your unstopable

looks like a good idea for RP'ers

Antinov, your original comment counteracted any reasonable way of understanding your point about pearls being useful. Extreme criticism does nothing but add aggrevation. I seriously doubt it even gave you satisfaction. The second paragraph you wrote in the newer post would have prevented a whole batch of this flame war. Feel free to say what you want, but don't expect it to not just make things worse if you are only throwing insults out for no apparent reason.

I love the idea of it but sadly admins will abuse the crap out of it because thats human nature. MORE POWER. But on the PvE server i play people sort of make their own economy anyways, for example I along my friends are the narcotics dealers and with trade narocotics for basically anything and have good rates and have even had to out compete some people which was funny. Not bashing the mod or anything but from my view point it seems irrelevant but well done on making it :)

thumbs up on the project mate

The poitn of hating on it is because it's bad, and we want to express our distaste, if you don't liek that, maybe take your own advice and just move on.

Pearls are too core resource for higher teirs to make currency, and god forbid we just use a barter system, sinted of some sort of stupid fiat money we don't need.

I hate the haters, #hypocrite

One more thing, just because the negativity pisses me off...
WTF IS THE POINT OF HATING ON THE MOD?? IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT, MOVE THE HELL ON. LETS KEEP IT TO CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM GUYS. SERIOUSLY

Pay no attention to the haters. Those are the ones that are just afraid of having to actually keep track of a currency system in game. But lets face facts, currency is EVERYWHERE. people have been trading things for other things forever. I for one think it's an EXCELLENT idea, and once it's ironed out, and a currency system is in place, y'all haters will be back to subscribe to this mod, as it'll more than likely be QUITE popular.(again, coming from a game designers point of view)

A new mod is in the works that will be far better than this one! (Plus it won't replace any existing item)

LOL Coming from someone who majored in economics this is a horrible idea, but you are free to do as you please.

There are bad ideas, then there's this. This is no ordinary bad idea, this is an advanced bad idea. I applaud you sir, well trolled.

there is only one admin for the server and trust me he is fair when it comes to this

"Pearls are removed as a gatherable resource so that admins can create an economy by generating them via console command." No, I don't see that being abused at all.... safe to say I will be avoiding any servers using this.

@jk_dad-You must have not read the discription. "admins can create an economy by generating them via console command." ps- by the way, what is your steam pic of? looks like somthing I've seen before.....

How do you get pearls to start trading? And on another note; how do you create things that require pearls? I love the idea of this mod, but as someone said earlier, without pearls, you are locked out of alot of end game tech.

Andaer, I added you here on steam. I do 3D modeling, and can probably whip you up something to use as an in-game currency.. If you're interested, accept the friend request, and we'll talk about it. Thanks, TD

haha, I think it's kinda funny how people accually bother to comment the mods they don't like insted of just moving along, looking for a mod for them :P Kinda pathetic!

This is an awesome idea for an economy based RPgm so you guys who do NOW approve.. why are you still here taking up space? :P keep looking or make your own shit :)

nice mod btw :)

@IoxionEngine- Two words. Money. Laundering.

It's removed so the economy is balanced. If clams gave pearls still then there would be severely rich people on the server. Yet again it's intended for RP, if you don't RP then move along instead of hating on a good idea.

you need to add where you can still collect them from clams, why remove that?

@Kahlas- we used pearls for teo reasons A) they are more like a currency B) we want a server where players will trade with others and actually having a monatary system, we didnt want to use keratin because you're right you dont need it at all because of chitin, but that means no one actually has to use the currency system and trade at all. Using pearls means that players will have to trade things with each other and with other tribes so that they can advance their technology

@Kahlas-If the Admin is susceptible to bribes then they have no business running a server.

Glad I don't play on a server that runs this mod. I think I'd rather it replace something like keratin since you don't HAVE to obtain keratin to make anything since chitin subs in for it. I guess if you're gonna start creating pay to win private servers this is the mod to do it with since without convincing an admin to gift you pearls, you're locked out of most of the high end content including some saddles.

THIS IS CRAP AND NOT FAIR

if you did the same with oil it would eliminate the need for going in the ocean and you could have more of an rpg style game. as long as the admins of the server keep an eye on how much there is it wouldnt sound like a problem.

good work

you can still use pearls for the electronics, by doing this it forces people to use the currency sytem because if you want the nice stuff you need pearls

One step at a time! This was my first mod ever created. I may, in the end, try to create a unique currency mod that will be completely separate.

Interesting idea but I'm guessing it's only for primitive servers since electronics require pearls for crafting. It would be great if you could instead add an additional item to the game for currency purposes. I'm not sure if the recent dev kit update allows for this yet.
