Nothing is done on Extinction because i have not play enough on this map yet.

The goal here is not to add/remove element to tell a map miss something now it’s better. It’s an extension of what i like ingame at the top of official content. Some resources that was missing on some ARK's are now available to balance a bit the resources.

You will find all Locations ini. configuration and Updates News here : https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pP_u1gxYKoadvp6eExLtqMRs2ycm1Hqo2uMLx2ulFG8/edit?usp=sharing

Global Mod Rules:

-When you build inside the new caves all the foliage of the cave you are in will be removed. (So don’t forget to farm the cave before build in if you want the resources).

-The ratholes with skull/ruin already nerf by the devs are not re-patched, all others are patch. Definition of rathole: Hidden entrance/human size entrance/torpor glitch. Approximity the amount of rathole/meshole per maps i have "patch" : TheCenter a lot, TheIsland few, SE a lot, Aberration a lot. A lot mean between 30-70.

-TekBow/TekPhasePistol are disable inside vanilla boss/tekcave of the 3 maps (except TheIsland TekCave). (tekbow/tekpistol are not in the mod i just anticipate). -All miniBoss spawn every 1hour. -All resources show in the minimap picture respawn between 1hour-2hours. Dino body resource respawns every 6hours-12hours. -The amount of XP that give miniBoss and Boss are configurable in the .ini. -All LootCrate can be custom via .ini/Beacon app.

Things you must to know for each maps :

TheCenter rules :

-Building is disable on ship wreck and the BlackPearl area. -Underwater lava do heavy damage. -15min remaining in the MegBoss Arena. -Cryopods are enable inside the megalodon arena. -Ocean landscape in the Border Sea. So we can build in this area now.

ScorchedEarth rules :

-The Giga Boss in the InsectCave will depop after 15min if he is not killed and can not be summoned with structure build inside the cave. -Only the Carcha/Rhynio can be tame inside the InsectCave. -TekCave get the same rule than other BossArena. There is no cinematic/Overseer boss or ascension. It teleports you back to the surface. -You can’t build on the Manticore Arena. (Tek cave entrance).

TheIsland rules :

-Quetzal trick for the tekcave is patch. (tek/glidesuit still avaible). -The Broodmother at the GreenObelisk will depop if she go to far.

Plans :

TekCave on TheCenter with OverseerBoss, check datasheets above

LITTLE VISUAL ISSUE : You have to restart your game to synchronize the visibility of the Foliage/BossTerminal of the mod each time you transfert to another server with the mod. (Only happen on SERVER, all work fine on SinglePlayer).**

I don't want to share coords of cave/spots to let you exploring, but i have done a minimap for each map. Maybe i put too much of something maybe not enough for others but i put stuff that i like in the game.
