very minor and I'm sure most people know this but for those who don't.


If statements function in a logical pattern.


if
- if something then something. ONLY ONE or else all are valid

else if
- if first if didn't go off, the else can still happen. Can have lots of these in a row

else
- if none of the previous if/else if's were triggered else is triggered.


I have never looked at this new source so I don't know how that file is structured but just use some common sense. If you use an if in between a long list of else if's then you will break it up into 2 separate sections


Eg:

if x > 1
do x
if x > 2
do y

if x is under 1 then NEITHER go off
if x = 2 x happens
if x = 3 or more x AND y happens


Eg 2:

if x > 1
do x
else if x > 2
do y
else if x > 0
do z

again, x = 2 x happens
x >= 3 x happens (NOT X AND Y BECAUSE IT'S AN ELSE IF) In this case Y will never happen, nor will z.



So if in the existing source you have a logical flow of

if
else if
else if
else if
else

if you were to place a new if command somewhere in the else if statements, you will separate the flow of logic into 2 distinct sections causing new (sometimes odd things) to happen to your drop rate.


Anyways, not directed at anyone in particular, just figured I'd offer a small warning on when to use if/else if statements.

Then, my advice to you is, use spoilers instead of posting that miles long post.

I get an Error, I AM doing everything right,

In Mob.cs I get an error "The name 'Cps' does not exist in the current context.
In Droprates.cs I get an error: 'NewestCOServer.DropRates' does not contain a deinition for 'CPs'

In DropRates.ini?
That is what I did and it didn't work.
I killed a pheasant and no cp's went to my inventory.

I went to the bottom of DropRates.ini and typed CPs=250 and still nothing

Then you did it wrong.
