Any way to increase screamer spawn % chance from heat limit with just xml?

Hi, just picking up a conversation I started in the wrong forum 



I am wondering if it's possible to change the chance to spawn a screamer (currently 20%) with just xml? (I don't think so, since I haven't been able to find info on this, but thought I might ask)?
Thank you

 
So the chance to spawn a screamer is defined by the heat being generated. To increase the chance you would increase the amount of heat generated by an activity or object.

Heat is expressed in sounds.xml.

Open the file <steam install directory>\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Config\sounds.xml

Search for the tag heat_map_strength in the comments - there is info there on how the syntax works.

There is also some info in <steam install directory>\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Config\Stealth.txt

again, search for heat_map_strength

Objects such as campfires also have a HeatMapStrength property that can be set.

cheers
