Configure all object/creature drops, spawns, spawners, and boss altars. Add boss despawn rules, remote Forsaken power selection, altar hover info for offerings/bosses, RuneStone location pins, Vegvisir buffs, stacked drops, and level-scaled trophies.
| Domain | What it controls |
|---|---|
location |
Boss altars, altar item stands, Vegvisir global effects, and RuneStone global pins |
character |
CharacterDrop loot, one-per-player drop counting, drop-in-stack, despawn rules, and boss-tamed pressure |
object |
Containers, pickables, pickable items, fish, destructibles, mine rocks, trees, and object drop tables |
spawner |
SpawnArea and CreatureSpawner tables, intervals, caps, level ranges, and location-scoped spawner rules |
spawnsystem |
World SpawnSystem rows, biome rules, time-of-day rules, global-key gates, and extended spawn data |
spawnsystem is a full replacement domain: the loaded rows become the live world spawn table. Keep every spawn row you still want.

BepInEx/config/DropNSpawn/..reference.yml files to find real prefab names and current values.DNS_<domain>.yml or DNS_<domain>_*.yml.Generated samples live in BepInEx/config/DropNSpawn/examples/. They are safe examples until you copy them into an active override file or rename them to a loaded DNS_<domain>_*.yml file.
Loaded override files:
DNS_<domain>.ymlDNS_<domain>.yamlDNS_<domain>_*.ymlDNS_<domain>_*.yamlGenerated helper files:
DNS_<domain>.reference.yml shows current game data and prefab names.DNS_object.locations.reference.yml shows which location roots contain object prefabs.DNS_spawner.locations.reference.yml shows location context for spawner rules.DNS_<domain>.full.yml is an exhaustive scaffold written by dns:full; it is not loaded.Use one primary file per domain when possible. Supplemental files are useful for splitting large configs by biome, progression tier, or feature.
Reference files are generated lookup snapshots. Missing reference files are created automatically, and existing reference files are updated automatically when their source game data changes.
Notes:
DNS_spawnsystem.reference.yml is generated from vanilla and upstream mod SpawnSystem data. DNS_spawnsystem.yml full overrides are not used as reference source data.DNS_object.locations.reference.yml and DNS_spawner.locations.reference.yml are generated lookup files and are also kept up to date automatically.dns:reference [object|character|spawner|location|spawnsystem|all]
Regenerates reference files.dns:full [object|character|spawner|location|spawnsystem|all]
Writes non-loaded full scaffold files.dns:inspect spawner

Shows per-player boss stone state for the aimed target.dns:bossstone reset <exactPlayerName>
Admin command that resets per-player boss stone state for one player.Most server-facing settings are synced from the server.
