I’m currently setting up a mod that’ll add a handful of monsters that should spawn anywhere, but really, really, really rarely.
How do I go about doing that?
…also I can’t seem to get the mod listing for testing… Not sure what I did wrong.
Okay, I don’t know what I’m doing wrong and if I can’t get this thing to list there’s no point in doing it so I’m running the surprise: I’m trying to make the Survivor Monsters that were discussed in a different thread but I’ve hit a wall and don’t know what I’m doing wrong, here are the files so far.
Bare in mind, there’s zero intention for balance in this mod at the moment, just trying to see what I can do with it.

"description":"A large, snake-like reptilian creature with four arms definitely some kind of Mutant. It's covered head to tail in what appears to be some kind of hand-made armor fit for a long-time, extremely mutated survivor. It's definitely got more than a few bionics installed, you momentarily wonder if it installed them itself. It seems to be wielding a Heavy Machine Gun in a pair of it's arms and looks ready to kill anything in it's way that it finds too threatening. If you're feeling particularly brave the home-made duffel bag on it's back looks overstuffed.",
