Server settings for the private server Zwinkie!

WARNING! Changes of this mod won't apply on already tamed dinos. For a full reset you should kill all the tamed and wild creatures on the map! (admincheat destroyallenemies) Set the difficultyOffset to 0.

Including: - Kibble system revamp! * removed Titanoboa kibble -> the Titanoboa eggs are very effective for Oviraptor taming instead! * for more details, please check the diagram (in the mod gallery)! * the recipe for kibbles haven't changed, they still need eggs, mejoberries, fiber, vegetables, meat and water to make (* planned: separated kibble revamp with the vanilla tamed dinos)

- Nerfed Giganotosaurus! (stats are slightly better than the T-Rex stats) * removed rage meter * new base health: 1700 * new base torpor: 2400 * health gain at level up (tamed) is increased to 10% * size decreased to ~70%, so it's more realistic (still bigger than a T-Rex tho)

- Tamed dinos are less overpowered: * reduced max level gain at taming from max +50% to max +20% * removed all other bonuses at taming * health increase at a level up is reduced from +27% to 10% * damage increase at a level up is reduced from 10% to 4%

- Rebananced dino spawns * Max dino level150 * Max tamable dino level 80 * Made T-Rex, Spino, Plessiosaurus, Mosasaurus and Giganotosaurus more dangerous (Min spawn lvl40)

- Rebalanced dino health, damage, torpor and torpor regeneration rate on various dinos (knocking out and taming big dinos will be much harder!) -> check the images for more information!

- All dinosaurs have their full names now (e.g. Ankylo -> Ankylosaurus)

- Some improvements to various dinos: * Reduced melee damage range of the Trike * Slightly increased the speed of the Ankylo

- More common names for the item tiers * Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Exotic, Legendary

- Prime Meat drop balances: * added: Trike * removed: Dimetrodon
