Gathering
The plugin distinguishes 4 different types of gathering, and are defined as dispenser, pickup, quarry and survey.
The type dispenser is used to change the rate you gain resources from the actual gathering nodes (trees, ore, corpses).
The type pickup will allow you to change the rate of the resources that you can find on the ground scattered all over the map (small rocks, wood logs that give a small amount of resources by default).
The type quarry is the most obvious one of the four and will allow you to scale the amount of resources that are gained by the Mining Quarry. Keep in mind that the resources gained by the Mining Quarry are zone specific, so even if you set a specific resource to give 10 times as much by example, it is still possible that nothing of that resource is given.
The type survey is the last one of the four and will allow you to modify the amount of the resources that you gain from gathering the items that spawn from the ground when you use the new Survey Charge grenade.
