Dropped Pickup Lifespan

Small server-side mutator that changes the lifespan of thrown weapons and dosh.

No. But I really hope that it will be whitelisted.

⚠️ I submitted whitelist request here:

1. Subscribe to this mutator;
   
2. Start KF2;
   
3. Open console (~) and input:
   open KF-BioticsLab?Mutator=DPL.Mut
   (replace the map and add the parameters you need)
   
4. <Enter>.

Note: If you don't understand what is written here, read the article Dedicated Server (KF2 wiki)[wiki.killingfloor2.com] before following these instructions.

1. Open your PCServer-KFEngine.ini / LinuxServer-KFEngine.ini;
   
2. Find the [IpDrv.TcpNetDriver] section and make sure that there is a line (add if not):
   DownloadManagers=OnlineSubsystemSteamworks.SteamWorkshopDownload
   ❗️ If there are several DownloadManagers= then the line above should be the first ❗️
   
3. Add the following string to the [OnlineSubsystemSteamworks.KFWorkshopSteamworks] section (create one if it doesn't exist):
   ServerSubscribedWorkshopItems=2864944858
   
4. Start the server and wait while the mutator is downloading;
   
5. Add mutator to server start parameters: ?Mutator=DPL.Mut and restart the server.

The config should be created on first start, but now the game contains a bug that initializes the config values ​​randomly if they are not explicitly set. Thus, the config may have incorrect values ​​or not be created at all.
So if you are using this mutator for the first time, I highly recommend doing the following:

1. Create (modify) KFDPL.ini manually. Put the following content there:
   [DPL.DPL]
   Version=0
   
2. Start the game/server with DPL to generate the contents of the config
   
3. Close the game/server

Right now this is the only way to correctly create the default config.
Unfortunately I can't do anything about it because it's a game problem (not mutator). I hope TWI fixes this someday.

• Weap - time in seconds after which weapon disappears. If zero or less the default value is used.
  
• Dosh - time in seconds after which dosh disappears. If zero or less the default value is used.

❗️ Note that a large number of objects on the map can cause lags.
Some unscrupulous players can use this to harm your server: for example, they can throw a lot of money or weapons in a place inaccessible to other players (for example, in the pool on KF-KillingPool).
So do not use too large values when you configure the mutator.

📌 Unfortunately there is no way to change ammo lifespan for technical reasons (the CheckRelevance() function is never called on Projectile objects). Ammo will disappear within 1-3 minutes depending on the type of projectile..
