    Good day wonderful Nitrado community! Myself and a group of friends have recently began playing on Crystal Isles. We want a diverse and inclusive variety of dinos on this map, and so I've successfully managed to add the Snow Owl, Managarmr, Gacha, Bloodstalker, Velonasaur, Deathworm, Enforcer, and Ferox. However, when it comes to adding a spawn for Reaper Queen(s), my efforts seem to be unsuccessful, and I am having trouble finding a definitive answer on this forum as well as multiple (and I mean MANY hours) google searches. Does anyone know for sure if Reaper Queens are somehow HARD LOCKED from being added to Crystal Isles or have I done something incorrectly in my coding? The line I added to the bottom of my game.ini was as follows:


    ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesIceCave_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="Reaper Queen",EntryWeight=10.0,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.05)))


    While I have done a lot of research into editing game.ini files/codes, I am still very new to it, so maybe I've made some sort of rookie mistake here that someone could point out.


    Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks.

    Someone else posted this and said it worked.


    ConfigAddNPCSpawnEntriesContainer=(NPCSpawnEntriesContainerClassString="DinoSpawnEntriesIceCave_C",NPCSpawnEntries=((AnEntryName="ReaperQueenSpawner",EntryWeight=0.25,NPCsToSpawnStrings=("Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C"))),NPCSpawnLimits=((NPCClassString="Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C",MaxPercentageOfDesiredNumToAllow=0.015)))

    Thanks, DOAGEN! I'll make those adjustments and then report back here with the results.

    So I've given it a few says, and here's an update. I copy/pasted the code posted by DOAGEN and restarted the server. In the server logs, it said it was missing an ending parentheses. So I added one at the very end (where it was missing) and restarted again. Wiped all dinos as per routine, and I have given it a few days just for good measure. Unfortunately since I'm playing on a cross platform server, mods are unavailable and so the only way I know how to check if a Reaper - or any dino in general - has spawned is by physically checking, or using getallstate command. For some reason, the getallstate command is only working successfully for base game dinos for me such as anklyo, pteranadon, etc. Whenever I use "cheat getallstate Xenomorph_Character_BP_Female_C" nothing comes into the server logs at all. So with my only viable option being physically checking the ice cave, I was unable to find any Reaper Queens. My only other suspicion is that the ice cave is possibly not a large enough area for one to physically spawn. So I'll try changing it to a wide-open area as a last ditch attempt, and update back here.

    I thought that I'd add some interesting results I've had for those interested - it IS possible to add Rock Drakes (and their eggs spawning!) on Crystal Isles AND you can add Reaper Queens to Valguero *for console without mods*!


    The trick for Rock Drakes is that you have to add them manually in the right place. If you fly over to the flying islands and enter the rock drake cave past the waterfall on the right, under the big crystal, you can summon a bunch of rock drakes in that cave area and over time, some of the nests will populate with eggs! Summon the drakes with the command a bunch: cheat summon rockdrake_character_bp_c. I am testing to see if I can get them spawning in the ini file but if you are okay with occasionally flying over in admin mode and spawning a bunch manually, it *will work*. This ALSO means that you can tame the basilisks on CI with said Rock Drake eggs! Definitely worthwhile and if you're a server admin for a lot of players, you can even make it a weekend event or something fun so it's less of a chore and less demanding to keep adding them every day or so.


    As for Reaper Queens, you can do the same thing on the Valguero map in the radiation zone, spawning them manually: cheat summon xenomorph_character_bp_female_c.

    I don't think they spawn properly using the automatic entry in the ini file but I can confirm that if you spawn them manually, they will burrow and do their thing. My understanding is that they need a radiation zone to live in, and that's why they will work on Valguero but that might be why they aren't working on Crystal Isles.


    I know it might not help specifically in this case, but if you're looking to have a map with Reapers which doesnt require the Aberration expansion, you can do it on Valguero. If you want Rock Drakes, you can do it on Crystal Isles.


    Let me know if you have any success with Reapers on Crystal Isles tho because I would love a map with everything on it!

    You don't have to manually add Rock Drakes

    Hi enlistedpansy,
    Have you done adding Rock Drake naf Reaper family to Crystal Isles?
    I and my friends have added Snow Owl and Ice jumper to our server but Rock drake and Reaper need special SpawnEntryContainer.
    We plan to add Rock Drake, Reaper, Phoenix to the server. Your experiment will be alot of help.
    Looking forward to your results man.

    does the code devans83 added to this chat work? has anyone used it?

    also i am trying to spawn in a wild reaper queen to my CI server does anyone got a spawn in code for a wild one ?

    my server is for ps4
