MatingIntervalMultiplier question
if I were to set MatingIntervalMultiplier to 5.0 does that mean it will be ready to mate again 5x faster or 5x longer?

This is not correct :) it's longer

It's 5x longer.

Interval = longer (when given a higher number)
Speed = faster (when given a higher number)
Stijger Oct 25, 2015 @ 2:01am 
exactly ;)

So you should put 0.5 correct to decrease the time it takes on the interval and 5.0 on the speed

^^ this is correct information.

I set mine to .1 and it still takes around 4 hours. that's a lot of time in SP because everything is real time and the clock stops after exiting...

Then go lower, try .01.

0.1 takes 2 hours

mating interval isn't a set 2 hours or 4 hours it's a random range.

I forget exactly where mine is set but it takes between 1 on the low end and 6 on the high end depending on the dino I'm breeding before they mate again.

I also have maturation speed at 6.0
and imprint frequency interval at 0.1
so far I haven't had anything I can't imprint but I've only started not long ago on this setting and only raised rex, argent, ptera, trike, anky, featherlight, and stego. all have had 100% imprint most with just 1 interaction but the rex took 3 imprints.

hope this helps a little.
I don't know the range of 0.1 specifically but I see some people say 2 hours some say 4 hours and they could both be right so no reason to call people names (looking at you alexilies764).

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
