I'm having an issue with Yuti's laying eggs
Hi, so in ASE you could use Yuti's to make Extraordinary Kibble. I'm doing the same thing in ASA (2x Female, 1x Male, 1x Oviraptor) and I'm not getting any eggs whatsoever. My egg setting is 10 as the popup says a higher # means more eggs.

The problem is i'm not getting any eggs. This is singleplayer, and I've stayed in render distance FOREVER and still nothing.

Anyone else seeing similar, or have any ideas of what's going on?

Are you getting any other eggs from any Dino’s?

A) Oviraptor, Overweight and set to wander (egg laying/mating speed buff)
B) Breed them(Yuti) and use Fertilized eggs for Kibble.

**Had to log out to double check but the Tool Tip text for Egg Laying Speed setting is BACKWARDS Higher = Slower egg laying. Set it to .75 or 1

I think you need to reverse the setting to under 1x

Yes, haven't had them for long, but lots of eggs from my Rex's and none from the Yuty. On another server when I had more female Yuty I did fine though. The one with none is a low population (player) and the one with more is a higher pop server. I think it has a lot to do with them going in and out of a players render, but not really sure.

weird, I've had no problems with my yutys, I made a 4x4x2 box connected to may house via a secret wall, had 1 male, 2 females in there all set to mating and an oviraptor set to wander.

they lay both fertilized and non-fertilized eggs when in render distance which is picked up by the oviraptor

I have the AA Egg Collector set to pickup the eggs, but I did notice when I set the oviraptor seems kind of buggy. I set it to pickup none, put stones in it so it can't move, then set it to wander. This seems to work for awhile, but every so often it is running around while being just under max weight. I keep putting more stones in but then it somehow loses them.

Now it is not showing the egg symbol on nearby dinos. What the heck?

lowering the speed rather than increasing it fixed it. Thanks!

If you see any setting like LayEggIntervalMultiplier, that has the word Multiplier in it, be very careful when you read the description as the setting is often not intuitive. The description is "Scales the time between eggs are spawning / being laid. Higher number increases it (by percentage)." Larger number increases the time between eggs being laid, so you want a smaller interval to get them to lay eggs more often (to increase the number of eggs laid).

Technically, the setting is not backwards, but just how most people think of egg laying is backwards from how the setting works. The setting does not adjust the speed, it changes the interval. Smaller interval, speeds up egg laying.

I feel this might be a bug? I have 10 female yutys and 2 males in the group, and no unfertilized or fertilized eggs. all my other dinos produce no problem and 2 others I know 1 in my server 1 not are telling me the same thing
