Frequently asked questions

How do I get my first supply crate to drop?
You can either wait for the mod's timed events to trigger an automatic airdrop, or craft a radio controller or flare gun to call one down manually whenever you want. Check the crafting recipes in your crafting menu to see what materials you need.
What's the difference between using the radio controller and the flare gun?
Both items call for airdrops, but the flare gun requires you to aim and fire it like a projectile weapon, while the radio controller is typically used directly from your inventory. Choose whichever fits your playstyle better.
Do I need to be in a specific biome or location for airdrops to work?
Airdrops will fall from the sky in most locations, but they need open space above to land properly. Avoid calling them in dense caves or heavily roofed areas where they can't reach the ground.
Can I change what items are inside the supply crates?
Yes, you can customize crate loot by editing the loot tables in the mod's configuration files. This lets you add, remove, or adjust what items spawn in each crate type.
How often do automatic timed airdrops happen?
The mod triggers airdrops on a timer, but the exact interval depends on your mod configuration settings. You can adjust this timing in the mod's config file if you want them more or less frequent.
What happens if a crate lands in water or lava?
Crates will still land and can be opened even in water or lava, though retrieving them might be more challenging. Plan your airdrop calls to land in accessible areas when possible.
Does this mod work with weapon mods like TacZ?
Yes, Simply Airdrops Mod is designed to work well alongside weapon packs like TacZ, and you can customize loot tables to include items from those mods in your supply crates.
Can multiple players receive airdrops at the same time on a server?
Timed airdrops are world events that affect all players, but individual players can use the radio controller or flare gun to call personal drops whenever they need them.
Why isn't my flare gun working?
Make sure you've crafted it correctly using the right recipe and that you have it equipped or in your hotbar. Also check that you're in a location where the airdrop can actually fall from the sky above.
Can I disable automatic airdrops and only use manual calls?
Yes, you can adjust the mod's configuration settings to disable timed events entirely and rely only on the radio controller and flare gun for calling drops on demand.
