Polls configuration editor

Set everything with sliders and toggles, then export the files. This covers the whole config folder: config.json for how the plugin behaves, one file per crate for the loot, the shared pools they draw from, and the language file players read. Your progress saves in this browser as you go. See the docs for what each setting does.

Debug

Debug: true prints extra poll lines to ArkApi.log. Keep it false unless you are chasing a bug.

Polls

Polls: the rules.

StaffPermission

StaffPermission: the Permissions node a player needs to start or end a poll. Needs Permissions.dll. From the server console or RCON you can always end a poll.

AutoEndMinutes

AutoEndMinutes: how long a poll runs before it closes on its own, in minutes. 10 is a good length. Set to 0 to make a poll run until staff close it by hand.

ShowLiveCounts

ShowLiveCounts: set to false to hide the running counts while a poll is open, so early votes do not sway the rest. Players still see how many have voted, just not for what. Set to true to show live bars to everyone.

MaxChoices

MaxChoices: the most choices a poll can have. Keep it at 9 or less so every choice has a single digit number to vote for.

WarnBeforeMinutes

WarnBeforeMinutes: a list of minute marks to remind the server before a poll closes. [1] warns one minute before. Set to [] for no reminders. Only used when AutoEndMinutes is set.

PlayerStartCost

PlayerStartCost: set above 0 to let any player start a poll by paying this many ArkShop points. 0 means only staff can start a poll. Needs ArkShop.dll to charge.

HistoryKept

HistoryKept: how many finished polls to keep on file for /poll last. 10 is plenty.

Permissions

Permissions: gates who can start and end polls. Needs Permissions.dll.

Enabled

Enabled: set to true to check Permissions. If off or missing, no player passes the staff check, so run start and end from the console or use PlayerStartCost.

ArkShop

ArkShop: only used if PlayerStartCost is above 0. Needs ArkShop.dll.

Enabled

Enabled: set to true to charge for player started polls.
