How to use Pokeballs for Only Storage & Pet Resurrection
You may have been looking for a mod that is more flexable then the other pet ressurrection mods. Suprissingly this mod is just that. The following are the settings to change to make Pokeballs mod work just on your Dinos as well as appear more lore friendly .

The following needs to be added into
GameUserSettings.ini
[Pokeballs]
DisableOnWildDinos=true
PokeballPCTransferThreshold=-1
DefaultPokeballSkinIndex=26

These settings Disable capture on wild Dinos, make it to where pokeballs do not go to the computer after capturing 6 ( seems to happen when capturing freshly imprinted babies and chooses the Tek Skin as the default skin which is the most lore friendly.]/i]

Next the following Settings Need to be added to
game.ini

OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_Masterball_C",EngramHidden=true) OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_Greatball_C",EngramHidden=true) OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName="EngramEntry_Ultraball_C",EngramHidden=true) OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName=""EngramEntry_PokeballSkinSelector_C",EngramHidden=true)

This will Hide all engrams but the Pokeball. I have chose not to hide the equipment provided in this mod but if you want to also insert the code below.

(EngramClassName=""EngramEntry_PokeballPC_C",EngramHidden=true) OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName=""EngramEntry_PokeballHealingConsole_C",EngramHidden=true) OverrideNamedEngramEntries=(EngramClassName=""EngramEntry_PokeballTradingConsole_C",EngramHidden=true)

Lastly I have decided to leave the crafting cost as is because I like the ability to easily ressurect any of my dinos without having to be near end game but if you want to override crafting cost of the pokeball and add lets say element or element shards use the following format below

ConfigOverrideItemCraftingCosts=(ItemClassString="PrimalItem_Pokeball_C",BaseCraftingResourceRequirements=((ResourceItemTypeString="ITEM 1_C",BaseResourceRequirement=AMOUNT,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false),(ResourceItemTypeString="ITEM 2_C",BaseResourceRequirement=AMOUNT,bCraftingRequireExactResourceType=false)))

Using this mod this way protects all dinos you have put into pokeballs from death even when out of the pokeball.

If you are wanting to then slaughter your sheep, Penguins Etc. just go up to them hold down e and choose cure Pokeball Sickness and proceed with the sad sad slaughter.

I really appreciete the felxabilty of this mod and want to thank the mod creater for doing such a great job and to keep up the good work.

If I managed to make a typo and something doesn't work I'll try my best to help you figure out the issue. Thanks

I have a problem. Unfortunately, I can not switch off the engrams. Have already tried with the settings that are described there, but it is still not. Maybe an idea what's wrong?
Wanted to turn off the engrams for the server, so they can not be used by the players. But when I put the stuff into the Game.ini, the engrams do not turn off but are still learnable b.z. they can still be made.

P-S.: I found the mistake myself. at the (EngramClassName = "" EngramEntry_PokeballTradingConsole_C ", EngramHidden = true) into an" too much.
Also missing at first the "OverrideNamedEngramEntries =".
