V: 10.1

Fixed Vanilla to Better Conversions

Made Basilisk able to recover stamina whilst swimming

Update: Jun 1, 2019 @ 10:39am

V: 10.0

Better Basilisk:

Breedable, doubled speed of projectile, increased swim speed, increased rotation rate, increased step height, switched 'Roar' to better animation. Immune to Radiation. Now has Carnivores_High tag.

Increased Doed Melee swing from 142 to 250.

Gave Rex custom roar based on Jurassic Park Rex courtesy of UpFromTheDepths for supplying them.
Increased wild Rex sprint speed by 50%

Changed size, location and colour of 'Vanilla' HUD tag

Rework of Singleton logic to help prevent server connection issues.

Made all BD Buffs persistant and able to survive restart to reduce need for extensive actor calls on server restart.

New Ini Options:

AllowWyvernMating= (False by default, set to True to enable Wyvern Breeding)

Update: May 27, 2019 @ 10:38pm

V9.5

Fixed Dinos not receiving BD Buffs when running with non-English translations.
Fixed egg laying corrupted Wyverns not receiving Wyvern buff and therefore not dropping Valyrian Reins
Fixed Wyvern buff making corrupted Wyverns drop non corrupted death items
Moved Mammoth Platform Saddle to dedicated mesh socket

Update: May 21, 2019 @ 12:25pm

V 9.9

Random Aberrants=True Ini option will now spawn Aberrant versions of ALL dinos that have one on any map outside of Aberration

RandomAberrantsBDOnly=True will only spawn Aberrant versions of the remapped BD Dinos where applicable. This is recommended if running the Hope map or other modded map which naturally spawns Aberrant variants so as to not interfere with the maps existing set up.

Removed all back end logic pertaining to old method of spawning random Aberrants.

Reduced weighting af Aberrant Gigantopithicus to 0.1 same as the others (had it set at 0.5 for testing)

Fixed Ini option PreventWildReins=True which wasn't working because I'm an idiot and had completely the wrong thing in the Ini call

Fixed Eurypterids not being able to receive buffs

Removed all added charge fixing logic from Ramming dinos now that WC have finally fixed it in the vanilla parent file.

Removed glasses mesh from Stay Put costume and added floating HUD Icon instead.

Added base to Trike Platform Saddle mesh

Tweak to Crab IK to prevent bulk of weird movement problems when equipped with Crab Platform Extension.

Conversions:

Made conversions buff persistant and able to survive over restarts
Made Vanilla Dinos with conversion buff covert back to vanilla at server restart, meaning that if you have a dino that you wish to stay vanilla, it will now stay as vanilla even after a server restart.
Removed the 'Keep As Vanilla' option from the conversion buff, not really needed now that the conversion option is nicely tucked away in Options.
Moved position and colour of Convert to Better Dino option of Conversion buff to echo the position and mirror the colour of the Convert To Vanilla option
Vanilla Dinos that have the conversion buff and are therefore able to be converted to Better version now display 'Vanilla' in their HUD.

Buffs:

Beginning the process of adding the ability to switch buffed Dinos from Better to Vanilla. Will only be doing this where the dino in question has several added abilities that users may not wish to use on a one to one basis. Added so far: Anky, Tek Parasaur, Tek Raptor, Carno, Dimetrodon, Plesi and Mosa (note that this will not stop the anti targeting of other sea creaures, just the pitching and improved rotations rates), Quetz, and Stego. This will not remove the buff entirely, it will merely reset the changes back to vanilla, and can be switched back and forth at will.

Update: May 14, 2019 @ 12:31pm

V 9.6

Definite fix for Euryp and Coel overspawns
New backend logic for conversion of pretamed renamed usually untamables
Removed debugging logic from Direwolf
Testing of new Ini option,

RandomAberrantsTest=

This is a different way of adding a 10% spawn of aberrant dinos to any map, not just the hope map. It includes ALL BD and vanilla dinos that have an Aberrant varient. Note that it may mess with other mods that also add entries to the NPC Global Random spawn array to spawn their dinos, but care has been taken that it won't mess with event random dinos spawns (eg. WinterWonderland)

Update: May 13, 2019 @ 2:48am

V 9.6

Fixed Vanilla Bionic Trike Animations
Fixed Aberrant Scorpion Animations
Fixed Better Scorpion conversion to Vanilla multiuse
Prevented eating of Stay Put Stones
Made Stay Put Stones stack to 50
Fix for Huge Water Dino Buff
Probable Fix for any potential overspawn issues involving Euryp, Jellyfish or Dragonflies
Added Better-Vanilla conversion for tamed Eurypterids

Update: May 12, 2019 @ 6:53pm

V 9.5

New Item: Stay Put Costume!

Acts as either a dino costume or a saddle skin, craftable in BD Workbench costing 50 stone. when equipped on a dino as either a costume or as a skin on an equipped saddle will totally immobilise the creature (Like the S+ hitching post, but without all the wires) Made mainly as a useful experiment.

Conversion:

All remapped dinos have have the option to convert to their vanilla equivilant, this can be found in the Options section of the radial menu. It is recommended to do this before uploading these dinos to an obelisk, or for example if using a Cryopod on a Crab on Aberration, this will help with the issue of then not being able to release again as the map does not recognise it as an allowed dino. Also useful if you just don\'t like the changes but other members of your tribe or server do. Note that dinos that have been converted to vanilla will still be reverted to the Better versions with the next server restart, such is the nature of the remapping process.
Moved Convert To Better and Keep As Vanilla options from Vanilla to Better conversion buff to the Options sub menu on the radial wheel.
Added Delay to Conversion options
Will not be able to do a manual conversion if the target dino is pregnant
Rework of conversion logic, now carries forward all player made settings such as wandering, follow target, aggression settings etc. as well as mating cooldown of original dino.
Converting from a vanilla dino that has no gender to a Better Dino that does (eg. Spider, Boa) will now randomly assign the new dino a gender (If the dino has been converted from the Better version to Vanilla and back again then the original gender will be remembered)
Made Bronto unable to be converted (either manually or by using the PreventBetterBronto= command) if equipped with a platform saddle to prevent destruction of platform structures
Using a PreventBetter= option for a remapped dino now has a three part effect: 1)Destroys all existing better versions and replaces them with vanilla 2) Removes the Conversion buff from Vanilla 3) removes the remap entry from the PGD ensuring that after the inital server start only vanilla versions of prevented dinos will spawn.
