Changes to devices

Changes that are needed for some devices.

First the storm device.

Please combine All of the storm devices combining all the storm devices would help a lot. Because each storm device is missing an option and could be easily fixed if they just combine all of them, futuremore make it more accurate to the Battle Royale storm so you can have random zones also add more functions so you can check when a storm phase happens for an event to trigger. Also add a setting to allow multiple safe zones, this could create an atmosphere, for more innovation with the storm further then what is seen in battle royale.

Next update a more recent device in the past few years.

Please allow us to make the map controller larger. At least the same amount of size that the battle royale map is, or even larger. This could really help with larger maps. As you cannot resize this device beyond its limits which is very small and hard to work with. Being able to resize it 10x times would be a game changer and is really needed right now.

Chest and amo gallery.

Please just combine all the chest and all the amo boxes into one. Make it, its own device call it the loot device. Allow us to be able to put a custom lootpool into the chests and allow for custom meshes and animations on the chests. Also add a function that randomizes the loot similar to how br has it and add a % function for the randomization of each rarity.

Common = %

Uncommon = %

Rare = %

Epic = %

legendary = %

mythic = %

Exotic = %

Make amo, Materials, Granades and heals a separate category with a toggle on and off option that can come out of the loot device. They would have the same % function as listed above.

Being able to make a custom lootpool while using a chest similar to br would be a game changer and make games a lot more optimized. Please consider doing this. It would make things easier and more streamlined for creators

The Creature spawner. Allow for custom skeletalmeshes on the Zombies and allow for more options of Zombies like the Save the World husks,mist monsters and Mini bosses. Add the Chapter 2 cube Zombies as an option for the Zombies. Add custom loot option for them to drop similar to how it works in battle royale. (Yes im aware that you can take the item granter and grant items that way but this would make it easier and more accurate how it works in br. Also allow us to change the mesh of the spawner. Add selectable meshes for the spawner like how the chapter 2 spawner looked. Allow us to select abilities for the Zombies and be able to give them weapons.

Furthermore add a boss version of the device that would have the caretaker,storm king and other new and old bosses. The squid boss that was in the ch6 s3 live event would be a cool option. They could also combine the boss spire with this new boss device.

Anyways im gonna be adding on to this thread as I go because im sure there are more devices that need changes. Please consider doing these Epic!!

Interesting that this post has not had that much traffic. For the record I absolutely agree with everything you said. There is a handful of other devices that could use tweaking. The major one off the top of my head is that there should be a way to Disable a Volume Device.

I am repeatedly baffled at the fact that we have not received a chest device yet. I mean that’s insane. If we’re being real not giving me a chest device with custom Loot pools (and everything you mentioned) should be an absolute deal breaker. Of all the most essential aspects of Fortnite Chests are top of the list. I have to resort to using a Item Spawner and setting it too random/no repeats and that sort of thing. It’s close but not the same. And the default chest from the chest and ammo gallery only uses Primal weapons as it’s Loot pool.

I have Tons of respect for everyone at Epic. BUT With such a brilliant company and ABSOLUTELY BOOMING game you would think these certian things would be taken care of by now. I am honestly wondering to myself often why this haven’t happened

+1 chest changes.
I have no idea how to remove Legacy items from the loot pool.
And for the life of me, I could swear that there used to be a pulldown that I chose “BR” before, but can’t find it now at all. Developer Assistant wants me to look for Loot and Item categories, which don’t exist in the current version of UEFN?
