Markers, minigames, and dispatch

Visual markers, minigame types, and the dispatch generator.

Markers and visuals

Config.Markers = {
    enabled = true,
    default = {
        type = 20,
        size = vector3(0.50, 0.50, 0.50),
        color = {r = 197, g = 79, b = 25, a = 200},
        bobUpAndDown = true,
        faceCamera = false,
        rotate = true,
        drawDistance = 15.0,
        heightOffset = 0.50
    }
}

Key fields:

• enabled: master toggle.

• type: marker type (Types).

• size: width/height/depth.

• color: RGBA (0–255).

• drawDistance: max render distance.

• heightOffset: lift above ground.

RGBA helper: https://rgbacolorpicker.com/

Common types:

• 1: up arrow

• 20: rotating sphere (default)

• 27: chevron up

• 28: chevron down

Per-site override example:

marker = {
    type = 1,
    color = {r = 255, g = 0, b = 0, a = 220},
    size = vector3(1.0, 1.0, 1.0),
}

Minigames

Config.Minigames = {
    wiring = {},
    circuit_panel = {
        description = '3D fuse placement puzzle'
    },
    terminal = {
        description = 'terminal minigame'
    }
}

Types:

• wiring: easy–medium, connect wires.

• circuit_panel: medium–hard, fuse placement.

• terminal: hard, terminal/computer puzzle.

Assign a minigame per site:

{
    id = 10,
    name = "Arcade AC Unit",
    minigame = "terminal",
    difficulty = "hard",
}

Guidelines:

• Easy jobs → wiring

• Medium jobs → wiring or circuit_panel

• Hard jobs → circuit_panel or terminal

• Expert jobs → terminal

Dispatch system

Config.Dispatch = {
    maxDistance = 10000.0,
    minPay = 500,
    maxPay = 2500,
    difficultyMultipliers = {
        easy = 1.0,
        medium = 1.5,
        hard = 2.0,
        expert = 2.5
    },
    rerollCooldown = 5000,
    maxRerolls = 10
}

• maxDistance: max job distance.

• minPay/maxPay: payout bounds.

• difficultyMultipliers: multiplier per difficulty.

• rerollCooldown: ms between rerolls.

• maxRerolls: rerolls per session.

Payout formula:

Final Pay = basePay × difficultyMultiplier × playerLevelMultiplier

Reroll balancing:

• Low cooldown (3–5s): faster paced.

• High cooldown (8–10s): RP paced.

• Low max rerolls (5–8): less cherry-picking.

• High max rerolls (15–20): more player-friendly.
