Modders Resource Spawning Point
Very tiny tiny ‘house’ that lets you spawn NPCs straight in to the world. And has only a small floor, no walls.
How to use:
1) Turn the Totally Invisible material into not alpha (default).
2) Use the ingame editor to place the invisible spawn item in a town or nest. It is in misc category.
3) Add an interior layout to it. You can just put any name, no objects needed, unless you want to.
4) Add one squad per each Invisible Spawn item as a resident in the town file, and set the interior layout name as their interior layout. It is recommended to have only one character to spawn per spawning point.
If you spawn more than one, they need an AI plus a chair or cage to sit in so they do not overlap each other. Or set them to patrol.
5) When you are done, change the Totally Invisible Material back to alpha.
6) The end user will need a new game or import their game to see the spawn work.
7) The character will spawn facing the direction of the arrow.
You can make duplicates of the file and change the dimensions (scale multiplier) of it, if you want even smaller or larger tiny ‘house’. You cannot really set interior layout to encompass the area outside the floor, so if you need more items, you need to make the spawning point larger.
DO MAKE A DUPLICATE IN YOUR OWN MOD, cause if you do not, your mod’s invisibleSpawn will overwrite any other mod’s invisibleSpawn. It is best every one of you is using their own StringID.
This is a modder’s resource. It does nothing on its own. You may do whatever you want with the mesh, collision and texture I included, all permissions granted. This is meant to be a tool you can use with your own mods.
The item is designed to be placed on the ground, the game first spawns it mid air, so you need to manually move it down, so the character can actually move out of the spawning point.
Caveat: This does not work inside the player’s base. It must be a NPC town or nest.
You MAY include this mesh and texture in your mod, reupload them, sell them, do whatever you want with them. No need to credit me. All rights granted.
