12.7

Hot Hot Hotfix:

Fixed infinite generation of Mammal Milk, Spoiled Milk and Swine Flesh in BD Workbench Preserving Bin inventory. This does include a one time wipe of these items within the inventory, with apologies if you lose any that were gathered legitimately.

Moved several files that were being referenced from the base game and cooked into the mod as external files into the mod folder proper to ensure that I don't keep accidentally deleting them when cleaning up mod bloat before pushing updates.

V12.6

The great Ice Wyvern purge of 2020:

Finally able to wash my hands of the great Ice Wyvern F-Up.
Removed every reference to Valguero Ice Wyverns or their eggs, including completely removing their files from my dev kit.
Phase 1 of retiring BD Ice Wyvern; All BD Ice Wyverns will now be automatically converted to the sole Vanilla Ice Wyvern (Ragnarok) please ensure you release them from Cryopods, Soul Balls etc and allow them to be converted to vanilla before re-storing them.
All references to BD Ice Wyvern now replaced by Ragnarok Ice Wyvern
All Changes to Ragnarok Ice Wyvern reverted back to original Wyvern Buff in line with other Wyvern varieties
BD Speed Ice Wyvern.
BD Ice Wyvern and it's eggs will remain within the mod for the time being for reference purposes only.

From here on in, any problems you may experience with Ice Wyverns, wild or tamed, they are absolutely nothing to do with this mod, go shout at someone else.

******
Edit, It looks like this didn't work, leaving it here though for posterity.

The following defaults will now be added to GUS.Ini files where they are not already present:

[BetterDinos]

AllowFlyerSpeed=False
AllowWyvernMating=False
AllowRockDrakeMating=False
PreventSpeedFlyerType=

If you already have these set to true in your .Ini, don't worry, they won't get changed, it will only add them where they are not present since these seem to be this most popular .Ini options available, and some people are having troubles getting them set up. They will be added the first time the server is run after this update has been installed.
