Nanny not working
I put honey in the nanny and food in the babies. They are not being imprinted. I have really boosted settings: mating interval .01, egg hatch speed 45, baby mature speed 45, baby cuddle interval .015. baby imprinting stat scale 5. Now I must say that these setting work for me if I am doing the imprinting. Are they too boosted for the nanny?

Did you activate the nanny? And did you show range to confirm the babies are in range?

I'm betting range

Yes, they were in range, I was just too stupid to activate her.

She now has more options if you check her radial menu

Yes, I'm not sure I understand all of them but I will hopefully figure it all out. I don't know why you need to change the food options.

The highest food amount is nice. Just in case.

It's amazing how we can know what to do but just have brain fog sometimes.

I got all geared up with a chainsaw to go to extinction to harvest crystallized sap .... and for some reason i had it in my brain that chainsaws used propellant.

All the way back to our Rag base for a few hundred gasoline lol

That's really good but I think maybe I can top it. I was on my way to a loot drop right next to my base and came face to face with an otter. I had been looking for a female for ages and it was a female. I had to go a long way to get a salmon because they don't spawn there anymore. I dragged it all the way back and then spent a game day and night and part of the next day trying to feed the otter by dropping the fish near by and couldn't figure out why this otter wasn't interested. I've tame three before, btw. Then it finally dawned on me that I had to press E to feed it. DUH.

Almost 4000hrs in.... and i still eat the occasional fertilized egg instead of dropping it.

Lol, and then there is pressing E on a flier in flight. I would love to see a youtube full of this kind of thing. I've seen a few of them but not many and not all that good.

When I was a noob, I flew up to a drop coming down and pressed E to try to access it's inventory, needless to say I was not able to.
