To maintain balance, we do not use a "Stack Mod".  We have instead set custom stack sizes for each item and increased player and creature weight to achieve the same QOL feel and function but retain the balance.

Structures Plus (S+)

Structures Plus (S+)

The added structures and QOL improvements make this the most popular mod in Ark.  The "OP" and exploitable engrams have been removed.  Removed engrams are listed below.  S+ Transmitter Dino Scan is enabled for all maps excluding Aberration, Genesis 1 & 2.

MAGA ORP

Structures Plus (S+)

Structures Plus (S+)

This ORP/PVP System helps maintain balance in all aspects of PVP.  When ORP is active, structures and passive tames inside do not take damage, and turrets have infinite ammo.  This works via a craftable item called "Maga ORP" and activates when your tribe logs off, and deactivates after logging on.  Being recently engaged in PVP will cause a delay on ORP activation if your tribe logs off during the PVP cooldown timer.  This plugin also governs other PVP functions such as transferring items and "popcorning" during the PVP cooldown timer.  The system has a 50 foundation range.  Limit 1 per tribe per map.  Maximum duration is 3 days.  More information is listed in our Discord.
