S+ Nanny
Does it 100% imprint everything? Does it need the resources for 100% imprint like certain meats and kibble?

What does it do?

By default the nanny will imprint to 100% when fully grown.

It imprints and feed babies. Imprint % is configurable. It does so over time, without interacting with the dino's actual wants

How do you change the % that it imprints? Will it guarantee 100% on everything?

Config. It should guarantee 100%. Unless you have maturation on like 500x

What do you mean config? How could I change the files of a mod in the files for the base game?

There are a number of config files that end in ".ini". These are plain text files that you can open in any text reader.

Pretty much every mod that has config options, including SS and S+, documents the options they have in the pinned discussions on the mod page. These mods in particular are damn well exhaustive in how much they off you.

They should be read alongside the Server config wiki page which also goes into a lot of detail on the changes you can make.

Only caveat to that is it wont do this if you have it set to mature at super super fast speed or close to instant.

Yeah my mature speed is pretty slow. It's about an hour and a half for a rock drake to fully grow. Would that be enough time for 100% imprint as an example? Do i need to decrease mature speed?

The nanny checks in every 30-45 seconds by memory. As long as each tick of % growth takes longer than this then you should be fine.

If they go from 0% to fully grown in between the times the nanny checks... That's when issues occur.

Yeah I ran the numbers on that, and I think with his rate it would be 54 seconds per percent

Will the imprinting buff count for all tribe members or just the person claiming it (or dropping the egg if using Dino Storage v2)?
