Stimberries work in tamming dinos?

[Copper Blood]

Does the use of stimsberries or stimulants work in carno and/or herbs by decrease their food levels faster when tamming a dino?

[Jayshua_Lyn]

Yes.

[White, the Loiterer]

It decreases their torpor, and possibly hunger.

[stunner]

It does not effect hunger, the dev comment on that was that it merely updates the hunger UI faster.

Eg. Instead of the normal 0.4 hunger lost per second it loses 0.1 every quarter second, making it appear to drop faster but not actually (both amount to 0.4 per second)

[Reknown]

no

No imo it just makes you use more narcotics or narcoberries, i see very little bonus to using Stims, they are just useless addition to the game or not working as intended..

Your better off waiting... boring as but stims don't help, and if they do its so minute its pointless..

Stims are useful when you go into caves, with or w/o pets.
Or when you, like so many people, are "stuck" with pressing the spring key and get torpor that way.

Currently the system is extremely simple.

Herbivores eat regularly. There is nothing you can do to speed it up. They eat mejoberries. Ignore guides telling you otherwise, lies and propaganda.

Carnivores also eat regularly. Raw meat is the baseline food (except with scorpions). Feeding it a prime before it expires increases their taming 4x that of normal meat. Cooked prime meat is 2x effective.

Every time either type takes a bite of something on its own, its taming effectiveness decreases. Making/allowing it to take damage also decreases effectiveness. Force feeding it anything or other shenanigans doesn't do anything for taming effectiveness or taming speed.

There is a trick for carnivores using fridges and starving that can make taming much faster/easier if you have a good setup nearby (and teams farming prime). Otherwise, if you're just using meat, its the same speed.

Narcoberries and narcotics keep the beast down. They make no difference which one is used. Narcoberries are more efficient, but you need to have a large reserve and they can rot off slowly. Carnos or herbivores don't care about which one is used...don't read into it.

This is very accurate, kudos
