First I'd like to thank the contributors to the data this plugin has gathered! Mob Tracker has recorded over 75 Million mob spawns with over 11.6 million unique mob-location entries!


While working on Loot Tracker, I've made a small enhancement to allow the tracking of items other than mobs. First up is Steel Chests and similar. Later I can add plants, seeds, whatever.


Most importantly though, is the new map viewer that gets installed into the plugin directory. It will use the HUGE maps that I have generated. They are native 2048x2048 and you can zoom into the map as well as turn the background map off to easier see the spawns. The spawn frequency goes from dark red to bright yellow, with yellow areas showing many reported spawns at that location. You also get coordinates display for ease of finding references or specific spawns.


Enjoy!


P.S. If you have made custom settings, you may want to save your settings file before upgrading. You will have to remove the previous version to install this one. I have NOT tested this version as well as I should or normally would, so even though the changes are very small, please feel free to email me with any issues you see.

Yay! I was hoping for an update like this. Now I just need to wait for more stuff to be added.

I will include all of these which cannot be influenced by player action. i.e. no plants or seeds because someone can just drop them anywhere.

Actually, the problem is that the plugin wasnt designed with this type of data collection in mind. It examines only object create packets and it doesnt currently look at whether the object is on the landscape, hooked, or carried in your inventory. If the object is a creature or, now, if its name matches a list, it sends the data. Since I know that no one is carrying or hooking a Tusker Shrine Statue, for example, its OK for me to use the mob detect method to capture these items, but the same cannot be said of anything the player can pick up.


Adding the code to check for being in a container, etc. is, of course, easy, but will require a new release and more extensive testing. I can add stationary objects immediately without users being required to do anything.


I'll get the code for the other items in the next release.

I know when I first started using it I could just put in the work gold and it would point out all gold critter on viss "could be crazy" but I thought that was how it work same thing with fallen. Just put in fallen and it shows you them all. Is it cASe sensitive? Is this still like this or do I need to add all types. Also is there a default list of things that it starts out looking for or do I need to add everything in? Just wondering if I somehow deleted the default list.
