Dilo's are cheap... leave her to the game gods and get another.

You may find her one day when you are out and not looking for her. I can't tell how many I have found like that. Found a lost dimorph just the other day. Also, I have walked around where I lost them and whistled to follow to find them. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.

New issue with my Dilo: She won't move. The only way she'll move is if I punch her

Did you put her on follow mode? Is she carrying too much weight?

She's on follow mode and I'm pretty sure she's fine, but let me check.

There is a mod, Dino Tracker, that I use. It will also locate your body if you die; find tribe makes, etc.
I play single player and it works very well for the body and Dino tracking

Is she on turret mode? Check her wheel.

Update: I lost my trike
Is there like a map mod that tells me where I am or where my animals are on the map?

There are multiple mods that can do this. Dinotracker, petfinder etc.

You know how Pixark automatically displays you on the map? I need something like that.

I find the best method is probably the mod Awesome Teleporters. It has a tracking device you feed your dino and gives it a permanent tracked buff. You can then get out the remote and teleport it to you. Fairly well balanced mod and has options to make everything require power.

1. This isnt pixark and it was made by another company.

2. You do have an icon for your player on the map but it will not display dinos on the map for you. Again use mods I mentioned with show coordinates to them, light beacons when close to them, arrows in the air to them etc(not all of what mentioned is exclusive to 1 mod).

Good luck to you.


Additionally there is of course the actual in game version at higher levels(transponders) but they're very limited and require you crafting transponders for each dino to place in their inventory.

Except that for starting out players, its not as feesible to use that aspect of awesome teleports(I dont disagree with you though). Pet finder for example doesnt require anything but 1 stone to craft to then give you directional arrows to locate em. And dino tracker is also not very complicated to make either and has the additional benefit of being a portable wild dino by level tracker too(though more limited in single player for that unless stasis is turned off)
