V21.1

Deer:

Removed Moo from all movement animations.

Phiomia:

Reduced base damage from 25 to 20

Feesh:

Fixed collision settings on Coels that was preventing them from being Cryopodded/Soul Balled

Unicorn:

Fixed Lasso Blueprint getting replicated when converting between Better and Vanilla

Misc:

Fixed vanilla Tek dinos not spawning when KBD is being run as the only mod.
Coels, Salmon, Piranhas, Dragonflys, Trilobites, Eurypterids, Cnidaria, Lampreys and Leeches can now be converted freely to and from vanilla. Note that if you have buffed versions of these creatures, eg. from Shiny!, then the buffs will most likely not survive the conversion process

V21.0

Basilisk:

Fixed Prevent Desert Basilisk .Ini option

Dilo:

Freshly tamed small Dilos will no longer have a saddle slot. Small Dilos that did have a saddle equipped due to this bug will have the saddle unequipped and placed into their inventory.
Reduced special ammo amounts required from 10 to 5.

Deathworm:

Fixed deathworm buff being inadvertantly applied to NU Deathworms and over-riding their loot drops.

Desmodus:

Can now be equipped with Valyiran Reins for a 25% stamina increase and reduced stamina usage when ridden.
Can now walk backwards.
That's it. That's all the stupid bat is getting.

Dung Beetle:

Removed wandering requirements for poop collection and fertilizer crafting and distribution.

Feesh:

Un-checked 'Can Be Tamed' on BD Coel, Salmon, and Piranha's. This is to enable them to be grappled by Bloodstalkers, and will also make them inelegible to be selected to be Shiny if also running Shiny! Dinos.

Hyaenodon:

Fixed not being able to be encumbered. Fun fact, this looks like it was an intentional thing by the devs to make them unable to be encumbered. Did anyone realise this at all? I know I sure didn't!

Leech:

Fixed not producing Blood Packs after detaching when no entry for LeechBloodBagMulti= is present in the GUS .Ini

Note that to disable blood pack production then set LeechBloodBagMulti=-1 as a value of 0 will default to 1.

Meganeura:

Fixed Aberrant Meganeura's laying regular Meganeura eggs.

Phiomia:

Increased base damage from 10 to 25
Increased chance and amounts for harvesting Rare Mushroom, Rare Flower, Savoroot and Rockarrots.
Should now correctly harvest mushroom spots on Aberration.

Pulmunoscorpius:

Now correctly rapidly spoils Mammal Milk, as well as Raw HP Meat and Raw HP Fish Meat.

Tapejara:

When equipped with Valyrian Reins, now gets increased grab weight (up to 80 from 35.5) and has unlimited rider rotation when latched.

Tropeo:

Fixed incorrect description of Tropeo Primitive Saddle.

New .Ini Option:

PreventCarnoAttackSwap= Set to true to prevent the LMB & RMB attacks being swapped around. I believe this should help with compatability for Dino Fixes and/or Paleo Ark.

V20.5

Misc:

Fixed a weight paint issue with Pachyrhino.
Disabled all logic to do with spawning BD Paleo Ark Dinos. That is now handled by Paleo Ark itself.
Fixed PreventSpinoPitch= .Ini option.
Fixed Deinon eggs being weird and floaty.

V20.3

Bronto:

Re-enabled IK that had been disabled for testing some stuff that I forgot to turn back on.

Baby small Dilos will now have correct stats throughout maturation (imprint quality no longer changes stats to those of large Dilos)
Large Dilos raised from an egg will no longer experience that sinking feeling.
Baby Large Dilos will no longer display the 'Special Spit Ammo' multiuse option.
Pressing Prone (X) whilst riding a Large Dilo will now cycle through its usable Special Ammo types.

Overheat multiuse moved to wheel with Access Inventory being given priority.
Reduced speed boost of Overheat from 1.5 to 1.25
Reduced damage increase from Overheat from 1.5 to 1.25
Reduced damage reduction from Overheat from 0.75 to 0.85
Reduced duration of superheated and heated buffs when not in range of Dimetro from 30 seconds to 15 seconds.
Prevented baby Dimetros from Overheating.

Dragonfly:

Increased stasis range.
Fixed baby growth times, now correctly takes same time as Dimorph

Deinon:

Reduced unstasis egg spawn interval from 5000 to 300.
Deinon is now unable to latch whilst being carried, conversely it is now unable to be carried if it is latched.

Leech/Lamprey:

Halved Gestation time.
Attaching Leech/Lamprey will no longer cause them to have a mating cooldown, and if they already have a mating cooldown it will now be correctly set.

Pachyrhino:

Added R-Pachyrhino.
New skin courtesy of GameVideosForLife and UpFromTheDepths. Will spawn in place of regular Pachyrhinos on Genesis 2 in the Rockwell ring.
Given soul.

Purlovia:

Will now correctly dismount to left if left input key is held when dismounting.

Tropeognathus:

Fixed being unable to take flight when falling.
Fixed falling animation.

Misc:

Refined server start destruction of wild Small Ferox, Griffin, Unicorn, Tropeognathus, and Deinonychus on official and official mod maps where they spawn naturally to prevent server restart 'Slowverspawns'
Fixed Paleo Dinos spawning without Paleo Ark being installed.
Inventory opening delay for shoulder pet access double tap is now only applicable if you have a shoulder pet on your shoulder.
Fixed a duplication issue with Alduin's Heart in inventory.
Fixed Diving Flyers being unable to use mounted weaponry after diving when using the AllowAllDinoGuns=True .Ini option
Added Styrac and Stygi to Lost Island spawners.
Fixed issue where having both KBD and Ark Additions installed would cause overspawns of either X-Liops or X-Xiphactinus (depending on load order). Note for this fix to be effective, KBD MUST be above Ark Additions in your load order.
Mammal Milk now able to be fed to Void Worms
Fixed PreventSpinoOldRun=True config not working correctly on Dedicated Servers.
Fixed Pegomastax 'Troodonism' bug

New.Ini Options:

PreventBoaRandomSizes=

V20.2

Bronto:

Increased single foot stomp damage to 70
Increased big stomp damage to 110
Decreased knock back of both stomp attacks.
Further increased base Stamina to 720
Increased base Health to 3,000
Increased base Weight to 3,200
Increased base Torpor to 3,500

Paleo Ark Compat:

Removed PaleoDinoChance= config. Instead BD Paleo variants now use the configs from Paleo Ark itself to determine spawn amounts and levels. Refer to the Paleo Ark Guide for more info.
Paleo Trike and Dilo now also look for `BuffsIncludeSource=PaleoArkLegends` for spawning and remaining as Paleo dino purposes.

Misc:

Fixed server crash related to Wild Eggs/Babies config. This does revert the change made in the previous update which would see the Baby Buff applied to all dinos regardless of how spawned pending further work.
Improved mod compatibility with No Untameables and Myrms QOL Items
Removed RandomAberrants= config pending re-work to the spawn system used.
Fixed disappearing costume slots on vanilla Dilo, Bigfoot and Purlovia

V20.1

Dilo:

Fixed R-Dilo and BD Aberrant Dilo not having correct frill material
Fixed saddle slot appearing in the inventory of small Dilos.
Fixed wild Dilos having an inventory
Bio Toxin spit now scales with Dilos melee damage.
Oil Spit now overrides regular Dilo Spit prevented them stacking.
Small Dilos will now be much less aggressive little shits, no longer aggroing on medium carnivores and herbivores, unless a Large Dilo is around in which case they will follow the aggro of the Large one. Large Dilos will still aggro on medium carnivores and Herbivores.
Fixed PreventBigDilos and BigDiloChance configs. It should be noted that setting the PreventBigDilos config after Big Dilos have already spawned will not make already existing Big Dilos smaller. It will however make them unridable and have small Dilo stats.
Fixed Small Dilos requesting that you equip a saddle to ride them.
Fixed Dilo bite preventing movement in SP.
Fixed small Dilos being able to move when in turret mode after a server restart.

Rex:

Added extra check so that only Rex's that use the vanilla roar animation will have their roar animation altered to one that does not prevent movement (ie for modded Rex compatibility when using BuffsIncludeSource=)

Misc:

Fixed Spino and Galli Anim_BP's resetting on stasis in SP

Paleo Ark Compatibilty:

Increased spawn numbers of Paleo Dilo and Trike in line with other Paleo Ark creatures
Fixed Paleo Dilo materials
Added Paleo Ark colour sets to Dilo and Trike
Fixed logic on Paleo Trike and Dilo not detecting if Paleo Ark is installed if it is the first in the load order

New .Ini Options:

PreventSpinoOldRun= (Set to true to prevent the Spinos run animations being changed)
PreventSpinoNewSwim= (Set to true to prevent the Spinos swim animations being changed)
PreventCarnoStepDamage= (Set to true to prevent the Carno causing damage when charging. Will still damage foliage, just not dinos or players)
PaleoDinoChance= (Default of 0.6. For use in conjunction with the Paleo Ark mod. This is a weighting config.)

V20.0

Dilo:

Now come in Small and Large varieties. Now exhibit sexual dimorphism with only male Dilos having a frill

Small dilos are fairly unchanged from vanilla. Changed Extra Tamed Speed Multiplier from 0.55 to 0.75

Large Dilos come in random size between 1.5 and 2.0, ridable and can be equipped with a saddle that can be crafted in the players inventory or the BD Workbench Smithy section (from level 15, 9 engram points). Have triple the stats across the board of small dilos, except for damage. Damage instead scales with the size of the Dilo. Big Dilos will provide a buff to nearby allied small Dilos giving a 20% damage increase and 20% damage resistance.

Small Dilos will only inflict their spit de-buff (blind and slow) on players and dinos under 150 drag weight, big dilos will inflict it upon all targets unless otherwise immune.

Improved range and damage of dilo spit, now scales with melee and does base damage of 12. Large Dilos have increased range of spit.

Pressing Left Ctrl will move the Dilo into an aggressive stance which will last until it is pressed again or another animation interupts it (eg bite, eat, swim, jump or poop) This is purely cosmetic.

Large Dilos can now utilise different materials in their inventory as ammo for a special spit attack (C). Different ammo types can be selected via the radial menu. Each use of the special spit attack will consume 10 of the selected ammo from the dilos inventory, and cannot be used unless the ammo item is present. All of the effects last for 15 seconds.

Ammonite Bile - Victim enrages all nearby wild dinos. Uses a new rage buff which allows victims to be damaged by their own team and class.

Squid Oil/Bio Oil - Victim is massively slowed and blinded, unable to run, jump, or fly (although dinos that are already flying will not be grounded)

Diseased Bile (gathered from tamed BD Diseased Leeches) - Only affects players and tamed dodos, inflicts Swamp Fever on the target.

Bio Toxin - Increases Torpor by 5 per second

Angler Gel - sets the victim on fire causing 5% DOT, Does not effect Boss Dinos

All dilos will not target corpses if in turret mode.

Direwolf:

Torch and other saddle skins are now correctly positioned when attached to a Direwolf saddle

Jellyfish:

Changed priority of Harvest Venom multiuse so that inventory access has 'Press E' priority.

Mammoth & Carno:

Both given the unused Mammoth footsteps sounds.

Megaloceros:

Re-parented bleed buff so as to not inadvertently affect other modded dinos that are supposed to be immune to Bleeds.
Bleed no longer affects Bosses.

Pachyrhino:

Removed Stamina increasing effect from Adrenaline Buff.
Adrenaline now decreases torpor at 10x the rate at which it would drop regularly.
All buff ranges increased to 1200

Purlovia:

Made immune to Better Dilos Oil Spit.

Rex:

Roar now correctly does not prevent movement when JP roars are disabled

Speed Rock Drake:

Fixed not respecting default Rock Drake breedability.
Fixed not respecting AllowFlyerSpeed=False and not converting back to vanilla

Spino:

Increased swim speed by 50%
Increased swimming rotation rates by 25%
Can now pitch whilst swimming.
Now uses unused and superior swimming animation, as well as the original and faaaaaar superior quadrapedal running animation (happy bouncy puppy Spino > sad wiggly runny Spino. Fight me.)
Quadrapedal bite attack no longer stops movement in SP.
Can disable some features (animations and pitching) via radial menu.
Wild Spinos now cannot drown (no more poor dead spinos floating in the middle of the Fertile Lake)

Stygimoloch:

Fixed some incorrect spellings in some tags

Titanoboa:

Fixed Frill not returning if config is used in conjunction with Prevent Genders config.
Fixed some targeting issues with Boa turret mode. Increased range of spit attack to 3,500, increased base damage from 10 to 15 and now scales correctly with melee damage.
Boas in turret mode will no longer target corpses
Changed priority of Harvest Venom multiuse so that inventory access has 'Press E' priority.

Unicorn:

Now definitely doesn't show Mana Bar whilst being ridden wild.
Pressing G whilst flying will now force landing before disabling Pegasus mode.

Wild Eggs and Babies:

Buff is now added to all wild dinos if any of the options are active regardless of how they are spawned (eg. Simple Spawners etc.)
Some more optimisation to buff logic
Wild nests should now be more suited to the physical size of the egg laid in them.

Optimisation:

Fixed a stasis issue with BD buffs (specifically Wild Eggs and Babies buff) that would cause increased CPU usage on server restarts. Thanks to Nevcairiel for identifying the issue.
Complete rework of Convert Vanilla buff, now has one buff to do all the work on all dinos where required rather than one separate buff per type of dino.

Paleo ARK Mod Compatibility:

If Paleo ARK is installed, Dilos and Trikes (regular only) will have a 5% chance of spawning as a BD version of their Paleo ARK Variants. These will be functionally identical to the regular BD versions, but will sport the unique Paleo ARK skins. If the Paleo ARK mod is not an installed and active mod, these special variants will automatically convert themselves to being their regular BD versions (ie if the mod is uninstalled or if manually spawned)

Misc:

Fixed conversions unequipping costumes.
Added Direwolves and Dilos to targeting preventions for Carno, Basilisk, and Megalosaurus

New .Ini Options:

PreventBetterYuty=
PreventYutyAttackChanges= (Set to True to prevent the Yutys attack animations being altered)
PreventBetterDilo=
PreventBigDilos= (Set to true to prevent supersized Dilos)
BigDiloChance= (Default of 0.2, the higher this number the higher the chance of Dilos spawning as big Dilos. As this is a Weighting config, you should bear in mind that the weighting of small Dilos spawn will always be 1, therefore setting this config to 1 would give both small and large dilos an equal chance of spawning, higher than 1 will tip the weighting towards Big Dilos)
PreventBetterSpino=
PreventSpinoPitch= (set to true to prevent the Spino from pitching whilst swimming)
PreventSpinoNewAnims= (set to true to prevent the Spino using the new swimming and running animation)
PreventSpinoNoTarget= (Set to true to remove the Spinos enemy targeting preventions)

V19.5

Deinonychus:

Fixed colourisation.
Decreased tamed speed increase from 20% to 10%
Fixed existing Taxidermies from the old BDDeinon class.
Fixed PreventDeinonExtraLevels= config
Removed DeinonBuffColourOnly= config entirely as no longer required.

Raptor:

Buff now correctly displays BD Icon.
New .Ini options to further choose wild raptor pounces.
Increased Jump Z Velocity by 50% and added equal amount of forward velocity to jump.
Prevented Raptor Buff from being placed on Alpha Raptors.

Misc:

Renamed new Deinon/Ferox parents to prevent a class confusion issue. Relocated to _Shared files for ease of use with other mods.

Titanoboa:

Increased some egg seeking tolarances to help with taming.

Wild Eggs & Babies:

Fixed wild babies not following an adult.
Fixed Wild Babies not correctly receiving the wild baby buff when WildBabies=True is the only option used.

New .Ini Options:

AllowMissionRaptorPounce=
AllowCorruptedRaptorPounce=

For clarity it should be pointed out that the wild pounce is now disabled by default on all wild Raptors, using the option AllowRaptorWildPounce=True will re-enable it on all wild Raptors, using either of these new options will enable it on only Corrupted or Mission Raptors respectively.

IMPORTANT:

The rename and moving of the Deinon/Ferox parent may require the removal of the old folder on servers if it inadvertantly gets cached and re-uploaded after being changed. Navigate to the Better Dinos mod folder in your server files and remove the Raptor folder. This is on servers only, and may not be an issue for everyone, it depends whether your providers mod uploader and Steam cache the old removed files or not. If it does remain you may experience invisible Raptors or black holing when trying to access an inventory with one of the removed Raptors in a Cryopod or Soul Ball. Apologies for this if it does occur.

V19.4

Coel:

Now that WC have fixed what was causing Coelocalypse, the BD Coel will now correctly spawn Valentines Coels when the Love Evolved event is active. Note that for some weird reason my logic only wants to affect Ocean and Aberrant Coels and not regular ones, so therefore for the duration until I work out the weird fuckery that's causing that, all Coels will be Ocean ones, except for Aberrant ones, natch.

Deinon:

With having to reparent the BD Deinon anyway to fix borked climbing, this has given me the opportunity to re-work how Deinons are handled by BD and bring them into line with how other creatures are treated.
Removed BD Deinon as a unique named creature. Instead the vanilla Deinon will be remapped by a same named BD Deinon. All existing instances of BDDeinonychus_Character_BP will now be automatically converted to this same named remap.
Wild Deinons on Valguero will still respect the set nest creating sites, on any other maps that have natural spawning Deinons they will lay them wherever they spawn similar to if they were added to other maps via .Ini. Eggs laid will hatch the BD Deinon.
Removed the Spawn_BDDeinon_Character_BP entirely. It is no longer needed at all. If you wish to add Deinons to any map via .Ini, just use Deinonychus_Character_BP_C and the remapping will take care of the rest. The BD Deinon now has absolutely no relation to the vanilla Raptor and therefore we no longer have to worry about it being affected by the Global NPC Replacements Array.
Vanilla Deinon now only has the material changes to allow colorisation. No changes are made to it's health anymore.

Leech/Lamprey:

Will now retain any buffs they had when attached to player/dino when they drop off again (mainly for Shiny! compatability)

Raptor:

Increased Running Speed Modifier from 2.3 to 3.5
Decreased Untamed Running Speed Modifier from 0.9 to 0.7 to compensate. Wild Raptors will still be quicker than vanilla, but not the full rapid increase of tamed.
Fixed the janky animation issue that would cause Raptors to be slowed if attacking when walking or running. Moving animation replaced to be one that does not cause hideous distortions of the arms as it attempts to claw its own throat out. This animation is slightly slower than the vanilla but I feel that's a fair trade.
New .Ini option to re-enable wild raptors to pounce, for the masochists amongst you. Yes the wild pounce is bugged, no I won't try and fix it.

Rock Drake:

Fixed reverting to vanilla harvest component when Prevent Tough hide .Ini option is used.

Spider:

Creatures or players trapped by the Spiders Web Bola will now take double the amount of any torpor inflicted on them for the duration of being trapped.

Wild Eggs & Babies:

Fixed groups of babies without an accompanying adult not spawning an adult.
Wyverns are now not affected by the Untamable Adults config (adult Wyverns are already untameable, and the config was preventing inventory access of KO'd female Wyverns thus preventing access to Wyvern Milk)

Misc:

Added some missing pinned animations for Moth, Scorpion, Bronto, Crab, Diplo, & Manta

New .Ini Options:

PreventBetterRaptor=
AllowRaptorWildPounce= (Set to True to allow wild Raptors to pounce)
PreventLeechMating=
PreventLampreyMating=
PreventStegoGallop= (Set to true to prevent the Stegos new running animation)

V19.3

Boa:

Fixed Cloning/Mutagen costs.
Now immune to torpor in line with the dossier.

Deinonychus:

Re-parented BD Unique Deinon to fix oddities with climbing since LI launch update. Note that this only affects the BD Unique Deinon and not the vanilla + buff.

Ferox:

Disabled removal of small Ferox element stash if there is no room for the Ferox to transform.
Added yet another additional check to prevent falling through ground after transforming.

Leech/Lamprey:

Fixed Cloning/Mutagen costs.
Both now breedable by gestation.
Babies will only request Blood Packs as their cuddle food, can otherwise be fed on Blood Globs. Whilst gestating and as babies cannot be manually attached to a player, gestating will still however attach to other players/dinos by attacking them.

Purlovia:

Now immune to Diplo Stun
Fixed tamed Yuty fear roar not scaring buried Purlovias out of ground

Spider:

Web Bola is now based on the Net Gun logic rather than the Bola logic.
Custom webbed material, still lasts for 30 seconds. Now based on Mass rather than drag weight as to what it can capture, will capture up to 220 Mass. This should translate to still being able to trap everything it was able to before (some changes have been made to other dinos masses to accomodate as detailed below)
Cool down after being webbed increased from 10 to 20 seconds before target can be webbed again
As with a net, web bola'd players can free themselves by drawing a sharp weapon and attacking.
Full list of vanilla/KBD creatures that can be web bola'd is:

Achatina, Anky, Archa, Argent, Arthro, Astrodelphis, Dimetro, Baryonyx, Beaver, Beelze, Beetle, Bigfoot, Bloodstalker, Boa, Deaodon, Deinon, Dilo, Dimorph, Diplocaulus, Doed, Equus, Galli, Glow Pets, Hesperornis, Hyeana, Ichthyornis, Iguano, Kairuku, Kapro, Kentro, Lymantria, Lystro, Mantis, Megalania, Megaloceros, Noglin, Onyc, Oviraptor, Ovis, Ptero, Para, Pego, Phiomia, Purlovia, Raptor, Ravager, Saber, Sarco, Scorpion, Shadowmane, Stygi, Terror Bird, Thorny Dragon, Thyla, Troodon, Tropeo, Vulture, Wolf

Misc:

Reduced mass of Anky, Doed, Hyaenadon, and Beaver to 220 or lower to allow them to still be trapped by Web Bola (all were far higher than they should be.)
Increased mass of Griffin to prevent it from being Web Bola'd

New .Ini Option:

PreventToughHide= (Set to true to prevent any creatures from dropping Tough Hide since apparently this is such a BFD for some people)
