Suggestion: Improvements to changing stats #45

Closed OoWolfenDenoO closed 1 year ago

OoWolfenDenoO commented 2 years ago

As of now, you can only change stats by typing out things in configuration files. If there was a place to see the default dino stats as a reference, that would really help. Something you could copy and paste and then change the numbers of.

The main part of this suggestion is to have a much better way of tweaking server settings, specifically for stats. An in game way for the server owner to change stats. In an Admin Panel there could be a tab for this. -There should be separate settings for the growth cave and growth earned outside of it, so you can gain normal rates of growth while doing the tutorial but can earn boosted growth once you're out.

PoT server settings idea .

Just a minor thought i had when reading this.

Quite often stats are stored in a cache or something, meaning that if you restart the server the changes you do most likely is lost. A way to prevent this, could be (if this ever gets added) - save the edited information to a seperate .ini file - that gets read on server start ups (to save data changes).

This way the server hoster also can just reset defaults by removing data from this seperate .ini file.

Idk if it would be possible for in game server settings (not while actually in the server tho) but at least a document with the default stats would be great so there's a reference point. Plus more options

That is, now the stats are nowhere to be found?

This is not planned, as this level of customization should be done through a game mod.
