Oviraptor is not colltecting any eggs

[Senyuki]

Hi! Does anyone have this problem too? Our Ovi is not collecting eggs, he wanders, we can see the egg-symbols... but he doesn't do anything.
I tried to put stones in him so he cant run away... he did not collect.
Then i tried to put him into a litte box (2x2 foundations), nothing... then 4x4... nothing.
Is there something i do wrong?

I don't have the exact same problem, but if I drop an egg in front of the ACs, it is gone - and doesn't show up in any Oviraptor at once. Some eggs appear in their inventory minutes after collecting them.

I think wander is for boosting egg laying rate. They should just passively collect eggs. They're range scales with level, though. So if it's a low level, they can't collect from very far. Mine seems to collect fine. He's a low level, so I park the dinos pretty close.

Save yourself all the issues and just install the mods that have egg crates. I mean why not ? I don't know how anyone tollerates the vanilla game. Get yourself Automated Ark and cryopods and have so much fun.

hey you want to make sure it has meat in its inventory for me even with feeding trough it kept eating the eggs,

if you want to breed eggs just turn on only to collect unfertilized eggs.

and it doesnt have a huge collection range so just overweight the animal turn on wander and make sure all animals are in range ( it wont move so its sure to pick everything it can)

Must be a bug of some kind. Or you've disabled harvesting.

On wander they collect all eggs. Fert or otherwise. Standing still, they collect all eggs around them and get xp from collections. Egg drop rate boost only from wander. Higher levels have bigger pickup range. If you're hatching, move them away from hatchery.

I have 4 ovi's spread around my base, 1 on wander Not had a problem with them picking up or from last patch.

people tested and the range is increased by the melee stat

Yeah, that's strange... because they do absolutely nothing. I tried both, wander and without. But nothing. I can see the eggs laying around, but they don't pick them up. It's enabled.
