			3) If you want the plant to ALWAYS be available, then do not add any children to it

			4) If you want to use the new random spawn system, then add a new child resource in natural_resources_items . This will make the main resource just a container (nothing will spawn there) and the system will select at random X locations to spawn, where X is defined by [[natural_resourcesTable\|natural_resources]].active_locations. Then [[natural_resourcesTable\|natural_resources]].amount will define how many times you can harvest that resource before its depleted. When it's depleted it will disappear and the game will wait [[natural_resourcesTable\|natural_resources]].interval + [[natural_resourcesTable\|natural_resources]].max_random milliseconds before spawning a new one in a non active location.

Created page with "We have two different ways to configure locations where players can gather materials. == Natural Resources == Used when we need invisible items to be harvested, example a min..."

New page

We have two different ways to configure locations where players can gather materials.

== Natural Resources ==
Used when we need invisible items to be harvested, example a mine will be modeled in 3d, but the individual ore are not 3d objects in the world.

So we configure a location on the map, defined by a center (in x/y/z coordinates) and a radius, where the player will be able to harvest. We also define the tool to be used (example a rock pick), the difficulty, and the resulting item.
