\nThis fixes pasted boats not working correctly with the Boat Building Station when using \u201cDeploy & Edit\u201d from the steering wheel.
\n
\nThe official starter fleet pack pack has also been refreshed to take advantage of the new features and improve the raiding experience across all difficulty tiers.

\nEscort Boats
\nRaidable boats can now spawn with armed escort boats that defend the main vessel. Up to 3 escorts per raid boat (RHIB, Rowboat, or mixed), each with a driver and armed crew. Escorts can either orbit the main boat defensively or aggressively chase nearby players. Difficulty tiers can override escort count, NPC count, NPC health, loadouts, loot drops, and escort storage loot. Escorts automatically sink after all crew are killed (after a configurable delay), and raids can optionally require all escort crew to be eliminated before completion.
\n
\nTurret System
\nAuto turrets, flame turrets, and gun traps placed in CopyPaste boat designs are now fully managed automatically. Admins only need to place them in the design. The plugin equips, powers, fuels, and loads them.
\n
    \n
  • Auto Turrets: equipped with a random weapon from a configurable list (default: AK, LR-300, MP5, M39, Thompson), automatically loaded with ammo and powered. Supports attachments and configurable sight range.
    • \n
  • Flame Turrets: automatically fueled with infinite fuel enabled by default.
    • \n
  • Gun Traps: automatically loaded with ammo with infinite ammo enabled by default.
    • \n
Turrets that are not wired to an electrical circuit are automatically powered on, while turrets intentionally wired by admins are left untouched so custom wiring logic still works. Auto turret inventories are locked so players cannot steal weapons or ammo.
\n
\nRaid Milestones
\nPlayers now receive notifications when turrets are destroyed. A new optional setting Require All Turrets Destroyed prevents raid completion until all turrets are eliminated.
\n
\nCore Improvements
\n
    \n
  • Difficulty tier count settings changed from multipliers to direct overrides.
    • \n
  • Profiles now support multiple CopyPaste files, allowing random boat designs per spawn.
    • \n
  • Added random skin selection for deployables (boxes, doors, furnaces, lockers, fridges, sleeping bags, rugs, chairs, tables) so each raid can look different.
    • \n
  • Raid progress messages now respect a configurable maximum distance (default 300m).
    • \n
  • Boat ramps now spawn closed instead of open.
    • \n

\nPvP & Raid Mechanics
\n
    \n
  • Added two-direction PvP protection near claimed boats so raiders and non-owners cannot damage each other within a configurable radius during active raids.
    • \n
  • Optional setting to destroy all locked doors when the boat hull is destroyed.
    • \n
  • Added dome spheres that visually mark the raid zone around boats.
    • \n
Defender counts now scale by difficulty tier (still capped by available cannons on the boat): Easy 2, Medium 4, Hard 6, Nightmare 8.
\n
\nNPC improvements
\n
    \n
  • Fixed defender health not applying correctly.
    • \n
  • Locked NPC corpse wear inventory to prevent clothing looting.
    • \n
  • Fixed defenders floating after dismounting.
    • \n
  • Fixed NPC dismount cleanup errors.
    • \n
  • Fixed NullReferenceException during NPC spawning caused by uninitialized network visibility groups after pasting.
    • \n

\nBoat AI Improvements
\n
    \n
  • Navigation now generates random destinations within ocean grid boundaries.
    • \n
  • Boats detect ice along the entire travel path instead of only directly ahead.
    • \n
  • Fixed boats endlessly circling waypoints.
    • \n
  • Added a 15-second proximity timeout near destinations.
    • \n
  • Removed premature engine cutoff zone that caused boats to stop too early.
    • \n

\nCannon Combat
\n
    \n
  • Cannons now target player Tugboats, RHIBs, and Rowboats.
    • \n
  • Fixed cannonball damage being blocked by TruePVE on player vehicles.
    • \n
  • Boats now stop when colliding with player boats, allowing players to board.
    • \n

\nPatrol Helicopter Changes
\n
    \n
  • Fixed patrol helicopter targeting and killing boat defenders.
    • \n
  • Patrol helicopter can no longer damage raidable boats, entities, or escort boats.
    • \n

\nLoot System Improvements
\nLoot tables can now be stored as separate reusable files.
\nLocation:
\n
data/RaidableBoats/LootTables/
Profiles reference them using the new setting:
\n
"Loot Table Name": "example_table"
This makes loot tables easier to edit, reusable across multiple profiles, and easier to share between server owners.
\n
\nCommand added:
\nrboat.loottables - Lists all loaded loot tables, item counts, and which profiles use them.
\n
\nLeaderboard Integration
\nAdded two new UltimateLeaderboard stat categories:
\n
    \n
  • raidableboats_escort_crew_killed - Total escort npcs killed by the player.
    • \n
  • raidableboats_damage_dealt - Total hull damage dealt to raidable boats.
    • \n

\nAdmin Commands
\n
    \n
  • rboat.validate - runs a full setup health check (CopyPaste files, profiles, dependencies, difficulty tiers, spawn nodes, NPC loadouts). Issues are reported as CRITICAL / WARNING / INFO.
    • \n
  • rboat.info <profile> - shows effective stats after difficulty multipliers are applied (NPC count & HP, cannon fire rate, escort boats, loot multiplier, dismount combat stats).
    • \n
  • rboat.resetstats <player|all> - resets raid statistics.
    • \n
  • rboat.pause / rboat.resume - temporarily pause or resume automatic spawning without changing configuration.
    • \n

\nAdmin Behavior Changes
\n
    \n
  • Using ent kill on a raidable boat now performs a clean removal. No rewards, stats, or floating loot are generated, and engaged raiders are notified that the boat was removed by an administrator.
    • \n
  • Admin entity kill no longer triggers raid completion.
    • \n

\nMap Marker Fixes
\n
    \n
  • Fixed map markers sometimes disappearing from boats.
    • \n
  • Fixed ghost markers remaining after plugin reload.
    • \n
  • Fixed radius markers disappearing from active boats.
    • \n

\nDeveloper Hooks & Apis
\nSeveral hooks and API methods are available for plugin developers integrating with Raidable Boats.
\nHooks
\n
    \n
  • OnRaidableBoatTurretDestroyed(turret, boat, profileName, difficulty, remainingTurrets)
    • \n
  • OnRaidableBoatEscortCrewKilled

  • OnRaidableBoatDespawned
