Removing dinos from Taming List?
First I have to say, love this new feature. One of the few I noticed when I came back to my game after a good while.

However, I have 6-7 Pegos in there now, from long ago encounters when I first started playing years ago. I don't plan on taming them. They are low levels.
Is there any way to remove them from the taming progress list? (Short of hunting them all down and just killing them or something, which would take a good bit of time?) I can only seem to track/untrack them.


Thanks!

Just bumping this up again.

Maybe I'll have better luck over on the Discord?

Does double-clicking not work?

Correct; double-clicking on the listed dinos does nothing. (Both right and left clicking)

I did notice that the monkey I tried taming the last time I was in game no longer shows up in the taming HUD list. (And I did nothing with it). It's just all the pegos in there.

(Apologies for the delay)

Hmmm, that's weird. Usually double clicking fixes it for me. Did you try tracking and then untracking all?

Maybe I got what OP means. So those pegos are still wild but you have started the taming progress but suddenly you don't want them anymore?

I have encountered this issue before, that was a few low level otters. I was trying to tame them but then I found some higher levels so I abandoned. I didn't remember those otters until the taming HUD came out. The only working solution for me is hunt and kill, some of them were stuck in the terrain so I had to ghost, which wasn't fun at all. Other than that I didn't realise any other effective ways.
You should be able to track all of them so the HUD shows the coordinates if you decide to kill them yourself.

I didn't try console command but you could try to destroy all wild dinos, though I am not sure if in progressed tame counts as wild.

Maybe the poor mesopithecus was eaten by a raptor :P

Yeah, I've tried untracking/tracking a few times.

Yes and no.
I never intentionally tamed them, nor wanted them; I believe it's from years ago when I first started the game, and they stole something from me. (It's the only explanation I can think of, since I haven't even seen one recently). So well before the taming HUD was a thing.

I was afraid of that...
Might have to take my dilos out for a little murder spree then.

UPDATE!
I tried the destroywilddinos (I had wanted to anyway, because I feel like I don't see as many dinos as I used to, can't remember last time I saw a trilobite on the beach), but anyway, taming list is now empty: pegos are gone!

As a general rule too, doing a regular destroywilddinos wipes can be a good thing to do because it helps to keep things redistributed properly.

Thanks for the tip!

Though it was definitely easier before I did the wipe haha. Now there is a sarco where I usually cross the river by my base.
