Ever want spawns different from the normal game? Want random events like all bosses, only pmcs, raiders on every map but not knowing what was loaded? Want to sh*t yourself at any given moment? This mod is for you.

***Absolutely REQUIRES>> Better Spawns Plus 1.1.4 <<Click here for required mod***

===================================================

-What does this mod do?

This mod is an addon for the great Better Spawns Plus by PreyToLive. BSP Variety adds almost 150 spawn patterns for thousands of raid possibilities. I've made the presets so that ANY bot can spawn in ANY zone. You can see Sanitar at weather station or Reshala at Crossroads.

Very easy to use, install and the server does the rest. In between raids the patterns will be chosen at random, nothing to open, nothing to configure. Install and play.

===================================================

-Features
Increased spawns over vanilla EFT.
Highly configurable.
Very easy to install.
Complete variety, you will not know or be notified which pattern was loaded (unless you check the server of course)
Works with nearly every mod on the hub.
Full raids with AI spawning IMMEDIATELY at the start of each raid. Youll hear battles right next to you and in the distance.

===================================================

-Highly Recommended Mods
SAIN (adjusts the mechanics of bots such as taking cover, blind firing, healing around corners, pushing your player character like online.
Big Brain (the mod SAIN relies on)
Waypoints (bots will now traverse across the entire map)
Looting bots (bots will loot containers and bodies)
===================================================

-The patterns (changes randomly in between raids)

Online - All the Boss spawn chances are the same as online (24% as of 3/13/23)

2x Bosses - Take your online chance to see a Boss and double it!

100 bosses - This one should be easy to figure out

Bloodbath - More PMCs, More Raiders, and The Goons combined into one config.

Bloodhounds - They're comin to get ya

Boss Variety - Ever want every boss and his followers on one map all at once? You're sick.

Deja Vu - You again?

Dead Raid - Where is everybody?

Glukhar Takes Over - Gluhkar and his gang sent the other bosses packing.

Killa and Tagilla - 100% chance Killa and Tagilla roam Tarkov freely. All normal Bosses are dismissed.

More PMCs - Reinforcements have arrived.

More Raiders - Bring a good set of armor and a big bag for all the sweet, sweet, loot, if you can make it out.

Pandemonium - Deja Vu, Cultists 100, Bloodbath, Bloodhounds, and Rogues on every map, combined into one config. A shit show.

Rogues - Rogues on EVERY map. 100% Guaranteed spawn rate.

Scavlands - A lot more Scavs on each map (excluding LABS).

Snipers and Raiders - Watch the skies, traveler.

The Goons - The Goons are now on every map and they aren't any easier.

Only Bosses - Every boss on every map, nothing else. No PMCs, no Scavs. Just wave after wave of bosses. Good luck!

Weird Scavs - Removed regular scavs from spawning, only Weird Scavs from recent pre-wipe event will spawn.

Horde Mode - A pattern specifically for Factory that spawns hundreds of Scavs. Max is 15 bots at once to keep performance good. If you want to only have this pattern or shut it off completely see the pinned comment in the comments section

I can't get More PMC to spawn any pmcs at all

update:

They spawn in but only after killing like 10 scavs

are you using any other mods?

are you using any other mods?

honestly? Yes, 34 other mods. But none that change spawns, They are all trader and item mods

The only one I can even begin to guess would effect it is valens progression. But even that mod only changes bot loadouts not bot spawns.

adudewithbadaim · Mar 6th 2023

try without valens progression. AKI does what that mod does on its own.

"bots": {
"enabled": false, <~~~~change to true
"pmc": {
"chanceSameFactionIsHostile": 80, <~~~~~i usually do this one at 100
"botLevelRelativeToPlayerLevel": 15, <~~~~you could put this one at 10-15 to simulate online wipe progression
"customPmcDogTags": false,
"makePmcsNotRandomlyTalk": false <~~~~~i always change this to true.

edit this section in D:\3.5.0\user\mods\PreyToLive-BetterSpawnsPlus\config\presets\preset name.

Gents, I have a couple of questions. If I want it to be PMCS only, should I replace the following values to 0 and leave More pmcs in that standard number?

"spawnGenerator": {

"enabled": true,

"presets": {

"2x Boss chance": 3,

"100 Boss chance": 2,

"Bloodbath": 2,

"Bloodhounds": 2,

"Boss Variety": 2,

"Dead Raid": 1,

"Deja Vu": 2,

"Glukhar Takes Over": 1,

"Killa and Tagilla": 2,

"More PMCs": 2,

"More Raiders": 2,

"Online": 4,

"Pandemonium": 1,

"Scavlands": 2,

"Snipers and Raiders": 2,

"The Goons": 1,

"More Bloodhounds": 2,

"Weird Scavs": 2,

"Only Bosses": 2

Second question is, what does the number mean, is it not binary to activate (0 for off, 1 for on)?

Looking forward to your responses

EDIT: Is it possible to combine 2? Like 100 boss chance and more pmcs?
Thanks Gents.

For pmcs only no scavs you'd have to edit the patterns. It isn't hard at all.

Open the pattern is notepad or vscodium and ctrl+f 'scavs' go to that section and change the spawn numbers to zeroes.

Alternatively you could do what you suggested, turn all the presets to zero and leave More PMCs at its number currently. Or 1 will suffice.

Note:More PMCs does spawn scavs just not very many, less than 10 in the whole match.

The numbers are weights. Presets with a 1 (one) will get rolled 5 times less frequent than the presets weighted to 5 (five)

I'm at my day job for a cpl more hours, I can make a no scavs preset pretty quickly and get it uploaded.

Thanks man,
That really helps, I was SO confused.

Yep, I'd appreciate if you do so, Thanks brother
