A19e Nitrogen - UNSTABLE

Status
Not open for further replies.
A huge thanks for this great little tool. My computer exceeds the minimum system requirements but RWG doesn't work for me within the game (although it did for 17). Without Nitrogen, I would be stuck only playing the 4 maps the come with 18. I will upgrade soon but will continue to use Nitrogen. Thanks

 
I wrote a little tool for myself that boosts the vegetation density (here by 4).

It goes though the biomes.xml, and increases the spawnprobability of all tree objects.

Could even boost the number of birdnests...

easier than editing about 140 entries by hand i suppose.

Finally I have some dense forests again.

Thanks @Guppy, i am going to try that!

And Damocles, this means that you modify the biome.xml programmatically and all of your forest pine biome is that dense now, right? I like the idea of doing that with one scale factor for vegetation.

Yes, its simple XML work.

The probability number is just indicating how often trees, stones, birdnests etc will appear.

I used a factor of 4 to increase the tree density, wich I like way more.

A18 is just to barren.

Doing that manually would be way to much work. I suppose TFP are also doing that thing automatically, and then just export the xml.

 
What does the console say? (F1 ingame)

If it said access violation, then you might have to close all the explorer windows open that look at the world files.

A18 is somehow picky now.

Here is the previous version in case there is really a bug

NitroGen version 0.420 (for A18)

If anyone wants to try out the settings, here two biomes.xml (rename and overwrite the biomes.xml in 7 Days To Die\Data\Config)

biomes vegeation 4x and 2x

It will spawn trees 2 times or 4 times more often than the default, making the world have more dense forests.

Its for the recent version (Oct 24 2019), DONT USE after the next updates, as it will miss the changes.

found a small typo in your pregenerated prefablist.txt

xcostum_icestadium(by_magoli),COMMERCIAL;DOWNTOWN;INDUSTRIAL;RESIDENTIALNEW;RESIDENTIALOLD;RESIDENTIAL,2,-8,46,17,41,industrial,smalltown

should be industrial;smalltown the delimiter was a comma

Thats the error i got before lol.

 
Yes, its a lot of entries, so its easy to make a typo.

I used to have an option to spawn all POIs in an ordered grid (the O.C.D. world).

Have to implement that again for checking prefablists.

Oh I understand typos and ofc that can happen no worries.

 
Hello, I have a question please. I have a dedicated server (BlueFang) and I used this tool to make my map. How do I add the map to my server?

I should mention that I did not download any of the files to my computer. I go to the site and edit the files manually. Adding a map is the most elaborate thing I've done since playing this game (if you dont count downloading mod launcher..which I'm not using).

Thank you in advance for any help given.

Hello Czon,

i have not worked with the 7DtD servers, so i dont know what configurations they need to host the map for a game.

In the very first post of this thread, zootal has described a little tutorial on setting up a server for A17. Maybe that helps you.

Just copy the files to <7days install location>\Data\Worlds

Set <property name="GameWorld" value="FolderNameHere"/> to \Data\Worlds\<foldername of world> in your server config .xml file

 
Maybe someone can write up a short tutorial on setting up a server for A18, as the one from zootal for A17. So I can add that to the starter-post.

Thank you. I read it over and over it didnt really explain dedi servers. What I got from it was for modded servers.

I did notice on Blue Fang I can upload files and folders. But...for example there is a Generationinfo.txt file on server. But on the generated map folder this is not one.

I'm nervous to touch anything and mess stuff up. Yet Im curious on how to do it myself. I guess I could ask support, butt hen I'd still not know how to do it myslef for the future.

I thank you for you help and you responding. Much appriciated.

Pretty sure you just message the server hosts and send them the map telling them it needs to go in generated worlds. Some servers allow 100% control tho so you just search for where the generated worlds folder is via filezilla or some program like it. And as well can send a message to the server hosts asking where it is to
