Affection during maturing
is there a way or a command to lower the time? (like not 3 or 4 hours till they want to cuddle or so) or something you could change in the game.ini or gameusersettings so they have constant 100% embossing?

Do you mean the time it takes to cuddle? You can change that using Game.ini file in the section under [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode].

For a server it's in Steam/SteamApps/common/ARK/ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/
but for single-player it's Steam/SteamApps/common/ARK/ShooterGame/Saved/Config/WindowsNoEditor/

So under the [/script/shootergame.shootergamemode] section, insert
BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=<value>
where the <value> is a number less than 1.0, for a faster time in between cuddles (I think, the wiki makes it seem a higher number means longer, but I think it's misleading).
So you could try BabyCuddleIntervalMultiplier=0.5, or 0.1, or 0.01, depending on your BabyMatureSpeedMultiplier (I've increased my maturing speed so want a faster cuddle time). The more cuddle instances you have, the less imprint% you get per instance.

Note, the change to cuddle time only applies NEW babies created after it's changed (old ones seem to retain their timers). Let me know if it works!
