📋 About This Mod
Have you ever wanted to get rid of those damn leviathans so much that you started a mass genocide? Well, worry no more! In a couple of minutes, you can remove an entire species from the face of Planet 4546B, or just make it appear less. Creatures inside Alien Containments are ignored!
Installing
-
[]Install BepInEx. Instructions are included on the mod page.
[
]Extract the .zip file into the plugins folder of the BepInEx folder.[]Open the "ManageCreatureSpawns2" folder.
[]Configure the mod (see below).
[]Start playing
Configuration
Configuration for Manage Creature Spawns 2 works just like the original with a "Settings.xml" file that you use to set
which creatures you would like to manage spawn rates for and an HTML page that provides the XML for anybody unfamiliar
If you're familiar with XML and editing .xml files, there are instructions for constructing the XML in the
"Settings.xml" file. Just look up the creatures you want in the "List of creatures.txt" file and build your spawn
configuration from there. If you're unfamiliar with XML or you want to go the easy route, follow the steps below.
-
[]Open the "GenerateSettings.html" file in Google Chrome (this should work in any browser, but it was only tested in Chrome).
[]Select "Subnautica" for your game.
[]Click the "Add New Creature" button.
[]Pick the creature you want to modify spawn rates of.
[]Uncheck the box if you don't want the creature to ever spawn.
[]Set the spawn percentage if you didn't uncheck the box. Only 0-100 are valid.
[]If you are not done adding creatures, repeat steps 3-6. Otherwise, go to step 8.
[]Click "Generate Settings"
[]Copy all of the text that was created below.
[]Open the "Settings.xml" file in a text editor. Note: Windows (and maybe other OSs) will try to open the file in a web browser instead of a text editor by default. You will not be able to edit the settings in the browser. You will need to tell your OS to open it with a text editor. In Windows, this can be done by right-clicking the file, then selecting "Open with" and selecting Notepad.
[]Delete everything in this file.
[]Paste the text you copied in step 9.
[]Save and close the file. You're done.
