[h1] Why? -Lost interest in Ark as a whole, real life took over -Mod is part of a life I've left behind and won't ever return to -I was never interested or good at Unreal Engine coding in the first place (This mod was made by just copying code) -The ambition of the mod became beyond my qualifications [/h1]

Currently i will not be updating this mod anymore.

NEW! Small Dragons can now dive like the Griffin, simply go up in the air and point straight down to dive. Diving straight into the ground will create a great explosion.

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE DESCRIPTION BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS, THANK YOU! AND CHECK OUT THE Q:A IN THE DISCUSSIONS IN THIS MOD TO SEE THE MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS!

Q:A

Yes, they are back, and they are just like the old ones, but better!

[h1] Don't Forget to Rate, and Favorite!!! [/h1]

Note: This is meant to be balanced for vanilla, if you want to use it for modded, you're gonna have to use stat multipliers on your server.

Our old favourites the Small Dragons are back, and they are just like the original! Took a while to make, but it's finally out. If you were a fan of Small Dragons before it broke in the workshop, then this mod is for you! This mod is not official, since i'm not the creator of the original mod.

[h1] ----More about the mod: [/h1]

Well, the new Small Dragon has almost the exact same color regions as the old one, almost the same stats and balancing, similar control and movement, diving and strafing, and some other things. I've compared from experience and videos to make it be just like the original Small Dragons. It also has a new range of saddles and armors to wear.

Small Dragons now have a multitude of uses, they can harvest Stone, Thatch and Wood, and have weight reduction for those materials, along with raw Metal. They are excellent for weight and transport, as they can carry creatures just the same as the Quetzal.

They are also capable of having babies, and getting mutations.

It also has the same attacks as the old one, along with a few new ones (Read below). Some of the old annoying things that the old Small Dragon had has also been fixed, such as loud footstep sounds, and the weird looks when using the firebreath while running.

[h1] ----What attacks does it have?: [/h1]

-Left Click: Bite attack, damages creatures and structures.

-Right Click: Firebreath, can be used in the air and on the ground.

-C button: On the ground, it does a wing attack similar to the Wyvern. Harvests wood and thatch from trees, and pushes creatures away. In the air, it performes a pick-up which can carry every dino that the Quetzal or Wyvern can carry.

-X button: Claw attack, which can harvest stone while on the ground.

-Ctrl button: Does a roar, it's awesome.

Small Dragons spawn in the mountains, and on Dead Island. That means, on The Island, Scorched Earth, Ragnarok, The Center, Crystal Isles, Shigo Islands, and any other map that has mountains, or a carnivore island-like place. On Extinction they spawn in the desert area, and also in the deep ravine next to the city (The place that has a lot of Kapros and Sarcos)

There's two new saddles, one that is a Passenger saddle with 2 more seats for friends, and a One-seater version for one player. There is also a Chitin armor for it, yes, Dragon armor, not just a helmet this time ;) Armor and saddles are crafted in the inventory!

Saddles and the armor can be colorized, and have their own custom icons and looks.

They are tamed just like the old ones, you knock them out and feed them meat. Their prefered kibble is Exceptional Kibble. Amount of tranqualizers varies, it should be around the same level as a Rex, but they have more resistance to damage, so i'd say about 50% more tranqs as an equally leveled Rex.

(Psst! Quick tip! Aim for the head, it does 3x the damage/torpor!)
