Welcome to our beloved ASA world but with story link showed as caves, folliage location to farm, miniboss with Engrams when we load the vanilla maps. The maps extension take effect on TheIsland,TheCenter and ScorchedEarth. There is only rathole/mesh hole patch on Aberration.
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 ressources that was missing on some ARK's are now available to balance a bit the ressources.
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 ressources).
-All caves get 2 rules:
1: Damage x6/Flyer off (If you change cave settings it will apply, it’s official asset)
2: Some caves can’t be built in PVE. (artifact cave/bear cave/InsectCave).
-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 3hours. -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 of course.
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.
ScorchedEarth rules :
-The Giga Boss in the InsectCave will depop after 15min if he is not killed. -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 if all of this is possible

ACTUAL ISSUES : You must restart your game to synchronize with the Foliage/BossTerminal of the mod each time you login/transfert on a server with the mod. (Only happen on SERVER).**

I don't want to share coords of cave/spots to let you exploring, check the minimap i made if it can help to find the spots. Maybe i put too much of something maybe not enough for others but i put stuff that i like in the game.
