Chronos Community

The Chronos Community Mod is a commission for ARK: Survival Ascended's Chronos Community servers. This mod includes several features, including a custom-built Decay System, Tribe Management features, a custom Dino Painting system, and other miscellaneous Quality of Life features!

Decay System

Chronos' Decay System revolves around it's Decay Prevention Structure. This structure defines the boundaries of a tribe's base, dictating what is and isn't protected from the decay system. The system also notifies players when they are building outside of a protected area with a message pop-up when building and a warning on the HUD of already placed structures. This structure also restricts the number of specific structures that can be built within it's range, allowing the server's owners an easy mechanical method of enforcing the server's guidelines.

Tribe Management

Chronos' Tribe Management systems are designed to help reduce the workload of the server's admins. This system limits the number of dinos a tribe is allowed to have outside of cryopods (an item that contains a dino's data, sort of similar to a Pokèball) and automatically handles placing any excess dinos into cryopods. It also prevents tribes from breeding their dinos offline, a common source of major server-wide lag.

Dino Painting

Chronos' Dino Painter allows players to customize the colors of their dinos with ease. Utilizing a custom-built Preview Widget (a client-side tool that renders an actor), the system allows players to visualize their changes directly on their dino before committing to them.

Quality of Life

The mod provides several Quality of Life features, including:

• Automatic spay/neutering of dinos above a configurable level
• The removal of the ability for configurable dino classes to breed
• A dino gender-change potion
• Cross-ARK (cross-server) transferring of all items, regardless of vanilla transfer setting
