I have found that no matter the values that are set for the AnimalBear event in events.xml, it doesn't seem possible to spawn more than 19 bears, as confirmed using VPP admin tools on a local test server. I have tried adjusting the nominal, min and max values to 25 each for example, and changing the event limit to 'child', instead of 'custom'. However, it cannot exceed 19. I have also tried increasing the AnimalMaxCount parameter in globals.xml to 1000, but this made no difference.
I have tested numbers below 19 and the amount of bears does correctly reflect the event values. A secondary question to this, is what limits does the bear event read when the limit is set to 'custom' as the vanilla nominal value is 0, which suggests no instances of bears should be spawning?
Example of my event as follows:
<event name="AnimalBear"> <nominal>25</nominal> <min>25</min> <max>25</max> <lifetime>180</lifetime> <restock>0</restock> <saferadius>1</saferadius> <distanceradius>0</distanceradius> <cleanupradius>0</cleanupradius> <flags deletable="0" init_random="0" remove_damaged="1"/> <position>fixed</position> <limit>custom</limit> <active>1</active> <children> <child lootmax="0" lootmin="0" max="1" min="1" type="Animal_UrsusArctos"/> </children> </event> {F2974008}
