Are grinder batteries in vanilla exile or do i need to add them to my server?

[ProfessorBAG 3]

I have the grinding action working in my server but it says i need batteries to power it. I dont remember ever finding batteries in exile, are they just rare? I went into my mission folder to try and see if they were buyable or if i can edit the price and CTRL-Fd for "batteries" and nothing showed up.

 

am i looking in the wrong server file?

Where can you find these? are they buyable or do you need to find them

I also cant find them in my  mission file's config.cpp either.

you can simply use them as is by including their classname in whatever your doing, to set them a price head to config.ccp in your mission file and in the cfgarsenal section to set a price, just copy paste one of the other items and fill in with what you want, every item you load onto the server can be used u just have to include them somehow, loot table / trader / spawn item to include them into the server itself for players to get then from there adding them into scripts or crafting recipes to make them useful

@ProfessorBAG Exile_Magazine_Battery they are not in by default, you will have to add them.

Cool thanks, do i just add that to the line of loot tables and thats it? or do i need to download something?

Add the Exile_Magazine_Battery in the mission file.cpp in the traders if you want to buy them and lower down add them to the cfg.arsenal. If you want them to spawn in you'll have to add them into exile_server_config as well.
