Saddle on a Forcetame

[RasaNova]

After chasing a gasbag around the map for nearly 2 hours, it glitched and disappeared. As in, no longer exists on the map according to dinoscan. So I got frustrated and cheated in another of the same level and used the admin command DoTame on it. I'm not proud, but felt like I did the work. (single player game.)

So my question now - Is there a way to use the actual saddle, vs sitting on its head?

DoTame does not equal forcetame...Creatures tamed via dotame still require you to put a saddle on them. The gasbag naturally doesn`t need you to equip a saddle. The seat on the back is for a second rider, much like the Tapejara for example.

Oh! Ok that makes sense then. I just thought it looked unnatural sitting on its head with an empty saddle in the back, so assumed dotame & forcetame had the same riding mechanic. Good to know!

Yaa, it does look a bit odd :) Btw, I recently started breeding Gasbags and needed to tame a lot of them...eventually I got sooo sick and tired of chasing them around the map. Now I simply use three gateways, add gates to the first and last and voila he is trapped and due to the gateways he can`t fly upwards either (so basically like an Argy trap). You could give it a try.
Happy hunting :)
