Curious is the transponder tracker is worth it or not??
Hey all so I have 56 points left and I am wondering if its worth getting the transponder tracker or not since I have lost dinos a few times! Like my flyers etc when something attacks me however I dont have the compass or the GPS right now so that is extra points there too since this is only 56 points left at the end if I dont get everything I wanted! I could leave out my flak armor that I have started putting points into but I haven't come across any blueprints for flak armor yet so I kinda want to get it to be safe than sorry! Also I want to get the electrical grid with fridges and the electric lights but I guess they aren't necessary I just wanted them so I could use them across my bridges etc and I only have 3 pieces of flack armor left! I also wanted to get the metal piping for my garden beds when I set them up as I feel that would work better than the cement pipes with the metal refiner container thing for water! But I was curious as to if I should rearrange this to get the transponder tracker and node at all??

As I have had a few occasions where I have lost dinos due to glitching through mountains and hills and finding myself falling into a puddle of water in the area I am in! guess I was just curious about this as I am playing single player so want to get everything appropriate that I need for both my base and dinos etc and I really wanted some opinions as to if this is a good thing to sort out points so I can get it?? Just not sure what I will sacrifice to get hte compass and gps first since that is 26 points and I need points for the fridge and wires etc to power things!

THanks for the help!

Just was thinking I will leave the electric powered lights and use the wood burning torches instead which is another 20 points :) so that means i have 76 points which I thin covers both the compass and the gps device as well as the transponder nodes etc if I go with it :)

Or am I better to just keep the points for new saddles?? Thanks for the help if anyone can help me! I much appreciate it!

Worth it for big long to tame animals but you dont want to mass produce them for everything :P Better for water creatures too imo

Okay thanks guess I will just have to hope if we get new ride able dinos plus saddles we can get blueprints for them or get the level cap raised! As it would be really handy to find my flyers when they do fly off on me when I dont have them following :) Or loose dinos due to me or them glitching through the world

You could get blueprints from beacons for everything you mentioned above except the tracker. It is up to you, but I would recommend not getting metal pipes.

There are a lot of things you probably learned that you didn't really need to, but if you are in a habit of losing your dinos, I say go for it.
