The Central Economy (CE) loot distribution system does not currently enforce proximity or uniqueness checks when populating loot points in close proximity (e.g., adjacent tents, shelves, or containers within the same building/camp).

As a result, players frequently encounter duplicate or identical items spawning right next to each other (e.g., three knives across three adjacent tents, differing only by condition).

Video Evidence / Example:

In the attached video recording, three adjacent tents were looted in a row. Each tent contained exactly one knife, and two of them were identical knife types (differing only in their condition/damage state).

This demonstrates that the system places items into nearby containers independently, without checking if an identical item has already been assigned to an adjacent slot.

• Clear/loot a concentrated area with multiple nearby spawn points (e.g., a tent camp, military barracks, or residential compound).

• Wait for a loot cleanup/respawn cycle or test on a freshly initialized economy.

• Inspect the spawned loot across adjacent tents/containers.

• Observe that identical items (e.g., multiple identical knives, hats, or tools) frequently spawn in adjacent positions without any diversity filtering.

The Central Economy should feature proximity/clustering constraints that prevent duplicate items of the same type from spawning within a short radius of each other, promoting loot diversity.

Actual Result: Items are distributed purely based on target counts and loot categories, resulting in duplicate items spawning side-by-side in close proximity.

Suggested Improvement:

• Introduce a local proximity/uniqueness check in the CE spawning logic that discourages spawning duplicate item classes (itemType) within a defined radius (e.g., 5–10 meters) if a matching item is already present at a nearby active spawn point.
