Yang's Starter Kit
Server-defined starter kits for players, given automatically during initial spawn.
Description
<span style="font-family: book antiqua, palatino, serif; font-size: 24pt;">Yang's Starter Kit</span>
A simple mod that allows servers to define a list of items to be given to players when they first spawn.
They won't be given again on re-spawn to avoid starter kit farming.
How to Use:
First, start the server once with the mod enabled. This will create VintagestoryData/ModConfig/yangstartkit.json in the server files.
Once you have verified that the file exists, stop the server and add inside your list of items, something like...
[ "game:knife-generic-iron", "game:torch-basic-lit-up", "game:basket-normal-reed", "game:clothes-face-malefactor-mask", "game:poultice-linen-horsetail" ] </pre>
After your list of items has been written and saved, start the server again.
The mod should work right away, triggering automatically when a player joins the server for the first time.
The mod will not give starter kits to previously existing characters in that world. Admins can force send starter kits via the /yangstartkit (playername) command.
It is strongly recommended that any backpack items are listed first so that players
have the inventory space necessary to fit the rest of the starter kit.
The mod will automatically try to give backpacks first as a safety measure.
The mod also supports more advance setups, such as picking one item out of a list at random (perfect for random starting weapons or food),
as well as defining how large of a stack (how many of that item) the player should receive. Here is a more advanced example:
If you can't read or write JSON5, I recommend finding someone with amateur experience with modding VS to write it for you.
[ "game:knife-generic-iron", { "type": "block", "code": "game:oillamp-brown-up" }, { "code": "game:backpack-normal", "stacksize": 2 }, "game:saw-iron", "game:pickaxe-iron", "game:axe-felling-iron", "game:prospectingpick-copper", "game:hammer-bismuthbronze", "game:shovel-tinbronze",
{ "oneof": [ "game:knife-dagger-ruined", "game:knife-khanjar-ruined", "game:knife-baselard-ruined", "game:axe-bearded-ruined", "game:axe-battle-ruined", "game:blade-gladius-ruined", "game:blade-arming-ruined", "game:blade-claymore-ruined", "game:blade-sabre-ruined", [ "game:bow-simple", { "code": "game:arrow-flint", "stacksize": 32 } ], "game:club-scrap-scrap" ] },
{ "code": "game:bread-rice-charred", "stacksize": 48 },
{ "oneof": [ "game:clothes-head-straw-hat", "game:clothes-head-bamboo-conehat", "game:clothes-head-bamboo-conehat-large", "game:clothes-head-tophat", "game:clothes-head-alchemist", "game:clothes-head-bucket", "game:clothes-head-bycocket", "game:clothes-head-bycocketfeather", "game:clothes-head-hide", "game:clothes-head-litham", "game:clothes-head-capotain", [ "game:clothes-head-wimple", "game:clothes-face-bandageright" ] ] },
{ "code": "game:bandage-clean", "stacksize": 8 }, "game:chisel-bismuthbronze", { "code": "game:firewood", "stacksize": 16 }, { "type": "block", "code": "game:ladder-rope-north", "stacksize": 24 } ]
</pre> That's all there is to the mod. It's fairly simple, but I think it's useful.
