Mod recommendation for mammal baby auto capture only?
So I am very iffy about certain mods being too op or making thngs to easy and taking away from the vanilla experience, but at the same time I like to include mods that can help out with some of the things not included in the game.
Specifically, I didn't run any of the dino depo mods for auto capture since the oviraptor picks up eggs automatically and I can just incubate those over a grinder and use pods to take the babies I want.
But then when I want to breed mammals... Obviously I can't horde embryos and hatch all at once without babysitting the parents with a gene scanner and collecting myself. I like to have the breeding semi- automated, simply like how it is in vanilla, but for mammals.
Does anyone know of a mod for like an embyro collector/puller? or auto baby pickup for birthed creatures?
I have reluctantly started using the dino depo mod, but there is so much extra stuff that i've had to disable because it makes the game way too easy or op. I have it only set to pickup babies without raising, imprinting, feeding or healing, but im a bit iffy with mixing the two cryo based items, since I am only using the crystal balls for the auto capture and dont want too use them for dino transfer/ storage.

Maybe Super Cryo Storage mod.
The terminal can be set to capture babies. Then the terminal and/or pod can be set to allow babies to grow or not. To gain XP or not. Lot of options to disable or enable. You decide on options to allow.

Dino Depot can be set to only pick up mammals and you can disable all other features. You can also set the ini to make the soul balls cost and weight be the same as cryo

Oh It will also shut off mating if you forget and it gets full

hmm sounds all similar to depo, but yeah guess ill just need to play around with it a bit, i've disabled most of what I don't like, its just gonna take some time to get used to using the balls and cryos together lol.
Hopefully down the line they add something that can auto take embryos (though I doubt it), kinda like an arachnid of sorts that can syringe babies out and brood them, or an improved SR 5RM8.
Thanks for all the help though!
I added vanila maewings from ARK devkit to my cluster and Alpha incubator mod. So this incubator can hatch eggs and embrions automaticaly and if You fill maewing with food and unclaim it could feed unclaimed babies untill You come. So we went this way...
