in GameUserSettings.ini

OverrideOfficialDifficulty=12.0
DifficultyOffset=1
DifficultyOffset=1.000000

makes max wild dino level about 360.

It might be in Game.ini, if that doesn't work (I can't really remember because I was dumb and put it in both.) You might have to od a dino wipe to see the results.

Yeh I know the file, just didnt realise you could change it for single player games. Will make my games much better. Usually run with wild dino level around 240, makes it much more fun.

Ok so have tried this and it doesnt seem to work for single player, any other ideas or any reason why its not working?

works fine on mine, although it doesnt go in game ini, it goes in gus ini under the server settings heading...like this below.....

[ServerSettings]
OverrideOfficialDifficulty=20
DifficultyOffset=1.000000

20 gives you 600 dinos btw.....for 240 you need it at 8 i think

Boom got it working, you need to delete your old saves for it to work.

Or just use the DestroyWildDinos command.

If the lines of code aren't there. You paste them in under the correct header.

Used the find feature to search for code

The posts above tell you.

difficulty offset of 1 means base levels of 1-30.

The override line is the multiplier, applied to the base levels.

so override set to 5, and difficulty offset of 1 makes makes level 150. 1-30 x 5 = up to 150. Same as officials.
