Do Carnivore's hunt too much?

[LOLZ_Ninja]

They hunt way too often and herb/pack A.I. isn't smart enough to run. Just wanted to mess around in sandbox and let Dino's free roam, kinda like in OG. Then a single T-Rex just went one by one and killed around 15-20 herbs in less than 10 min.

Remember in Jurassic Park where the T-Rex and the brachisauruses were all thrown into the same cage together?

Yeah... I don't either.


Put them in seperate habitats. T-Rex wants to hunt, not be fed.

Yes. Imo all carnivores should start hunting when their food is at 60%, not 99%. The only dinosaur that should stay the way it is, is the indominus.

Right now doing a Site B is impossible. Hopefully the devs fix this.

@Nick
That's not the point. I was messing around in sandbox and found it odd that the Carnivores chain from one Herb to another without breaks or the Herbs running away. Which leads to a scene like when the Indominus killed a ton of dino's for sport.

Totally. I hope they add a hunger or a pack/run away mechanic. Doesn't make sense for them to just auto target everything, regardless of if they just ate or killed something

I find it anoying when U got 5 life feeders in your carni cage and U only have 4 in that cage so far, and then they decide oooh lets eat all the goats in a row, at 99% hunger. Logic >.>

Had a Brachio get mad because I didn't put trees outside the fences. Like what? Turn around, 50 percent of your inclosure is trees.

The OP wants to know why it hunts when it isnt hungry, and frankly so do I. This isnt ARK, I would expect more from the AI.

Oh trust me, it was big enough. I had one area that was mainly grassland, next to a viewing platform. The Brachio just walked right up and hung out there til it got mad.

The comfort level is now based on a radius around the dino, not the entire enclosure, which make no sense.

Yeah, the carnivores seem to hunt endlessly even after just eating something. A big shame, I was looking to do the same as you with big open enclosures, but since one carni annihilates all the herbs in a few minutes it just ain't all that fun at the moment...
