Seeding Mode keeps your server population-friendly during low-pop hours by automatically restricting heavy vehicles and equipment until enough players have joined - no manual admin babysitting required.

FEATURES

- Auto-activates whenever the online player count drops below a configurable threshold, and auto-deactivates once enough players are online again.
- Removes prohibited vehicles, emplacements and drones the instant they appear in the world - spawned, taken from an Arsenal, or placed in the editor.
- Same instant-removal protection for mines and other explosive items.
- Fully configurable prefab blacklist (exact file name match, no accidental false positives) - list every vehicle/mine you want blocked while seeding.
- Recurring on-screen reminder while seeding rules are active, with configurable text and interval, so players understand why they're restricted.
- Player-facing pop-up (not chat) explains why a vehicle/item was removed - no confusing silent deletions.
- "Force Seeding Mode" override for manually enabling seeding rules regardless of player count (e.g. for scheduled events).
- All settings configurable live in-game via Scenario Properties ("GSC Seeding Mode" tab) - no file editing needed for day-to-day use.
- Settings and blacklist persist across mission changes and full server restarts (stored in a JSON file under the server profile).
- "Reload Config From File" option to apply blacklist/JSON changes without restarting the mission or server.
- Debug logging option for troubleshooting.

CONFIGURATION

Most settings (enabled, player threshold, force override, reminder toggle/interval, debug logging) are adjustable directly in the World Editor / Scenario Properties dialog. The vehicle and mine blacklists, and the reminder message text, are edited in GSC_SeedingSettings.json under your server's profile folder - see the in-game read-only viewers for the currently active lists.

COMPATIBILITY

Works on any Conflict/Campaign-based game mode. No dependencies beyond the base game.
