When changing the seeds of a zone (SubSeed, MarkerSubSeed, etc) keep in mind that there is a high chance subsequent zones will also have their layout affected. It's a good idea to change zone seeds in the order they appear in to avoid unwanted changes.
Local index is an identifier, used to refer to this zone from elsewhere. While the enum values are limited, going over the max using underlying int type works fine for most features.
AliasOverride - Int32
Sets the zone alias to this value instead of using the default "ZoneAliasStart" + "LocalIndex".
OverrideAliasPrefix - Boolean
Whether to use AliasPrefix overrides instead of the default "Z" or "Zone" text.
AliasPrefixOverride - String
The prefix text when OverrideAliasPrefix is set to true.
AliasPrefixShortOverride - String
The short prefix ("Z") text when OverrideAliasPrefix is set to true.
SubSeed - Int32
Rerolls the layout of this zone specifically.
MarkerSubSeed - Int32
Rerolls the markers of this zone while keeping the layout of the zone unchanged.
Markers can affect a lot of things, from entire parts of rooms, to large objects, to terminals, resources, random artifact/consumable spawns on the floor etc.
Where in the source zone to try to make the entrance to this zone.
Note that a valid gate may not generate around the set source position/area.
StartPosition_IndexWeight - Single
Calculates the source area depending on a value from 0 to 1. With 5 areas, 0.4 should set it to area B (though you might want to set it a little higher thanks to how floats work).
Only used when StartPosition is set to "From_IndexWeight".
Events to trigger when the door to this zone is opened.
It's worth noting that the "Event" here is different from WardenObjectiveEvent. The 'Event' here are typically used to wake up the hibernating enemies in the zone (which cannot be achieved by using WardenObjectiveEvent).
This feature had been used in R6C3 Overload, the second zone (in which there's only a tank), to wake up the tank right behind the sec-door upon the door being opened.
Events to trigger when the portal scan is complete (this is for the source zone, not destination). It's hardcoded to be used with the portal geomorph (that's been used in R6B1 and R6D1).
Events to trigger when door is unlocked. By 'unlock', it means:
The keycard for the sec-door is inserted.
The power generator for the sec-door is powered up.
The door is locked with no key but is unlocked via an WardenObjectiveEvent (Not pretty sure about this one).
Events to trigger when the door to this zone is opened.
If you're wondering what the difference is between this and EventsOnEnter, it's the type. As aforementioned, EventsOnEnter doesn't use the same type of events as most other events.
Called when an enemy considered a "boss" dies in this zone.
Unfortunately it seems like boss is specific to squidBoss (R6D1) at the moment, making it unusable when only editing datablocks.
New in R6.5, used in R6.5DX. Can be used to trigger events when a player approaches an object in a level. Unfortunately what objects act as triggers is defined in the prefabs, making them uneditable from datablocks.
Whether the players need to be in another zone for enemies to respawn here.
EnemyRespawnRoomDistance - Int32
How many areas away does the closest player need to be for enemies to respawn here. 0 means they can respawn in areas that players are in.
EnemyRespawnTimeInterval - Single
How often the respawn check is run. Does not depend on enemies getting killed or player locations, this runs from level start.
EnemyRespawnCountMultiplier - Single
Multiplier for how many enemies respawn.
Does not change progressively. E.g. 0.5 and 20 initially should respawn enemies up to 10 whenever it falls below that number. Above 1 will just most likely cause more enemies to spawn before you even enter the zone for the first time.
List enemy IDs that should not be respawned. In base game typically used to prevent scouts from respawning.
HSUClustersInZone - Int32
Number of HSU clusters in zone.
CorpseClustersInZone - Int32
Number of corpse clusters in zone.
ResourceContainerClustersInZone - Int32
Number of resource container clusters in zone.
Not required for resources to spawn.
Might be unused.
GeneratorClustersInZone - Int32
Number of generator clusters in zone. Usually set to 1 for the zone in which you'd like to place your Central Power Generator Cluster (don't forget to use the right geomorph to make it spawn, and it may still require marker seed rerolls).
Does not prevent anything from spawning, only affects LG. Should be set to true where consumables are spawned to prevent marker offsetting between drops.
AllowResourceContainerAllocation - Boolean
Does not prevent anything from spawning, only affects LG. However, if you are going to distribute resource packs in a zone, set this field to true to prevent marker offsetting between drops.
ForceBigPickupsAllocation - Boolean
Affects LG. If you are going to place any Big Pickup items (e.g. powercell for the objective/sec-door, Datasphere, Fog Turbine), set this field to true to prevent marker offsetting between drops.
