Entity Levels

[Raul]

This is a RustEZ feature where players can merge one or multiple of the same entities into one for the sake of reducing server overload where at the same time not losing productivity.

 

Upgrading

For the most part, levels 1 through 10 only require one of the same placed item with no additional Net Worth.

 

Furnaces

• Level 1 to 10: requires 1 item with no additional Net Worth required
• Level 10 to 15: requires 1 item and 2,500 Net Worth
• Level 15 to 20: requires 1 item and 5,000 Net Worth

Levels multiply the following:

• Composting interval (300s at level 1, 5s at level 20)

 

PSA: When upgrading to the maximum level, all electrical entities receive a free level of power consumption. This means that level 20 multiplies everything, except the power usage, using the same amount as a level 19 entity.

This is an amazing feature, like so much that I am considering building another farm when I said I might take the wipe off and just spend some networth and do other things.

Although I am still seeing farms with over 10 pumps causing slight lag on the area, maybe there is a limit of 5* for each entity per grid of that specific player, after that the player is given a notification that they can upgrade their existing entites whch would give them a total of 100 levels each if they could afford it of course.

But the MAJOR lag that players experience is from sprinklers. It would be nice if somehow we could upgrade our sprinklers to produce more water and higher AoE that way we can have one of them manage an entire floor, or just a few depending on how it's constructed, of course it would take the necessary water and items from your inventory to do so.

In the end this is an AMAZING plugin, hopefully it can be expanded to more things as mentioned above to reduce it even further and acknowledge that the plugin exists to players, because I didn't even know it was there until someone mentioned it on the chat.
