[h1]This is an updated version of the original Better Beacons - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=506506101[/h1] CAN NOT BE BE USED WITH THE ORIGINAL BETTER BEACONS OR VARIANTS LIKE LITE! OR BUILDING LOOT. This is a map extension so it should be stackable with other mods besides those mentioned above.
ONLY WORKS WITH THE ISLAND
Adds in the missing items from the latest version of Ark as well as balances the loot so you don't receive a water jar blueprint from every other crate. Added user adjustable settings for Item Set quantity & quality. Added level 80 crate with corresponding items.
Info on "Item Sets": Some "Item sets" consist of multiple items such as the case with armor. By default there are 5 items in an "Armor set". Helmet, Chest, Pants, Gloves & Boots. That would be considered 1 set. What that means is that even if you have the "Item Sets" setting at 1, you could end up with just 1 or all 5 armor pieces as they are part of the "Set". If you have "Item Sets" set to 2, you could end up with all 5 armor AND an item or items from another set. Make sense? Good.
GameUserSettings.ini Settings: [BetterBeacons] CrateMaxQuality=1 CrateMaxQualityDouble=1 CrateMaxQualityCave=1 CrateMaxQualitylvl80=1 MaxItemSets=1 MaxItemSetsDouble=2 MaxItemSetsCave=1 MaxItemSetslvl80=1
[b]Double crates have a max of 2 sets, normal crates have 1 set max. Adjust as you see fit.

More detailed info for description coming soon. Please see the original Better Beacons page for more relevant info - http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=506506101
P.S. This mod does NOT nor did the original version ever edit the crate locations, ONLY the contents so when you find a crate stuck in a rock, tell the devs not me.
