Inaccurate Taming calculations, what am I doing wrong?
Hi all,
I've recently started trying to use the taming calculators online so I don't have to keep hanging around the unconscious dinos to monitor torpor/taming progress. I've tried dododex and crumplecorn, and they keep giving me what seem to be inaccurate calculations. For example, a 104 Carbonemys requires 150 crops according to the calcs, but one crop gives it over 1% taming affinity for me, thus needing <100 to completely tame. Am i misreading something or putting in my server details incorrectly? Thanks!

Details:
- Single Player
- Taming Speed modified to 1.547
- consumption rate is unmodified
- 104 Carbonemys is receiving ~1.7% taming affinity per crop, equalling about 59 crops to tame
- Calculators say 150 crops required

The single player setting reduces taming time and requirement by I believe 2.5x so that plus your increase of the taming speed would make it quicker and require less.

Don't check the "use single player" box.

So, since I manually slid the taming speed up to 1.547, I should put ~3.047 into the calculators online?

Of this I am unsure, I dont know if it just adds on like that or if it is 2.5x which is then multiplied by 1.547 but try that and see if it tallies up.

Why not just uncheck the single player setting box and set the exact settings you want?

You were right, it was 2.5 x 1.547. Much appreciated!

I was unaware that playing Single Player further affected the servers stats. I have only recently gotten back into it since release to see what was new.
