Command to change target dino size?
I thought there was a command a while back I read about that could change your target dino or players size, but I didnt write it down. I have a custom level T rex I spawned for an admin mount in my private game, and I would like to increase his size a bit more then an alpha rex. Anyone know the command to increase dino size??

The command is ChangeSize. Then enter any number starting from 0.1 to 100 and press enter. Entering 1 is the normal/basic/average size. You must capitalize the C in change and the S in size with no space in between the two words. You also MUST be on/ride the dino/animal in order to increase the dino's/animal's size. If you are off the dino/animal and you enter the command, then your character alone will be the one that increases.

The extremely annoying downside to this command is when you increase your dino's/animal's size, your size will also increase while riding your dino/animal until you get off your dino/animal. Once you get off, you will revert back to normal size. If you ride that increased size dino/animal again though, your will increase once again.

I'm hoping all this information will help you enjoy your game a much more, despite the annoying downside to the command. I got most of this information from a youtube video. here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJDmXNOU-PE. Just copy and paste this.

I don't know if there is a way to fix that annoying downside glitch. sorry

Hmm thats strange, be sure you have the exact command an are typing it in correctly. Sorry I have not been playing ARK in a while, but if I remember right I did get the command working. But dont make the dinos too big, because I think the hitboxes didnt scale right or something if you make them too massive.

ChangeSize

ChangeSize <SizeMult>

Cheat: Yes
Target: Self
Added: 0.0 (UE2)
Arguments:
Name Type Description
SizeMult Float Size multiplier

Description: Changes the current player's size. Your player character's model will only stretch or squash so far however, and if made too big will seem to float and bob up and down during different animations (too small and you'll sink through the ground). You will not become any slower or faster. Set back to 1 to go back to your normal size.

i've yet to find capitalization matter, even in long bp strings but ...

edit: but then i didnt know it worked on dinos too so cool
