AirdropSettings.json

Airdrops and Airdrops mission have been changed a lot to improve the user experience and add more options to server hosters for the configuration. We will try our best to help you on our discord if you have any questions or issues. In theory your old airdrop and mission config should still work.

If you have issues to start your server, regenerate (delete/rename) missionsettings.json and airdropsettings.json.

Type Name Description
Bool HeightIsRelativeToGroundLevel The plane will try to keep the same altitude based on the terrain elevation
Float FollowTerrainFraction How accurate the plane will follow the terrain elevation. 0 = won't follow the terrain / 1 = will follow at a pixel perfect precision the terrain (looks wierd) / 0.5 = smooth
Float InfectedSpawnRadius How far the Infecteds will spawn from the airdrop (in meters)
Float InfectedSpawnInterval How long until the next Infected will spawn (in milliseconds). This will prevent the server to spawn all the zombies at once if not set to 0.
Int Usage (in Containers) 0 = both mission and player called, 1 = mission, 2 = player called
Float Weight (in Containers) 0 = won't be selected at all, and > 0, the higher the value the more likely.
Array Variants (in Loot) used for different skins of the same item (or similar items). Example
Int Max (in Loot) If set to 0 (or -1), this item can spawn in the airdrop without any max limits. If you want for example only 5 BakedBeans, change this value to 5. (Still affected by the chance value so it's still possible to not reach this max)
Array Infected (in Containers) A list of Strings with the name of the Infecteds. Can be replaced with bears for example
Int ItemCount (in Containers) How many items will spawn in this container (airdrop)
Int InfectedCount (in Containers) How many infected will spawn at this airdrop
Bool SpawnInfectedForPlayerCalledDrops (in Containers) If enabled, player called airdrops will also spawn zombies on the airdrop.
