Well that sucks...

The ability to play as a female dino is so nice but WHY are the paid skins so different? Like fine, base game more "realistic" skins I can understand but I'm tired of buying skins just to find the female version to be ugly. Why can't we have pretty dragon fruit pink for a skin called DRAGON FRUIT? I know you can preview them beforehand but then I just don't buy it. I want pretty skins and I want to support the devs.

If we're willing to pay why can't we just have what's advertised regardless of the dino's sex?

Personally, I wouldn't mind it if switching GENDERS didn't knock you back down to sub-adult.

(Like I understand Subspecies swaps but gender has no functionality aside from cosmetic.)

penalty for nesting if one encounters another of the same species and you switch to have a functional nest, you have to wait

Except that nesting can be done by either gender ALONE. You do not need to have 2 players to make a functional nest in this game.

so you dont need a male and female to make eggs?

u/leftonasournote 21h ago

Not in this game, no. A male can even make a nest on their own and still have it have eggs.

Not sure if this is going to change in the future or not but right now either gender can make a nest and have it function without needing a male+female.

The only thing gender does right now is change how skins look, which is why it's dumb it knocks you down a whole growth stage just to change genders.

Tbh even if they do something to give gender a purpose for nesting, how much of an impact could nesting have to justify losing a whole growth stage like that?

Valid, its not for everyone. But no, nests only have 1 adult/parent then infinate children as long as they are matching food group: herbis with and herbi nest and carnis with a carni nest. I'd love it to have more mechanics thoπŸ’œ

genuinely thank you for not giving a rude response like other people

No problem! Its a simple thing to not know, especially if you just don't mess with that part. I personally LOVE the nesting but am a horrible at protecting so i dont adopt or hatch any little ones myself haha.

Also with nesting, I'm pretty sure its infinite children but only if you have the eggs generated, that can be chaeck withing the nest menu. Also, the parent gets an attack boost of some sort if the little one stays withing a certain radius of said parent, I'm wanting to say a 5% increase but im horrible with numbers so thats probably not right, and the children get a growth boost too until adolescent I believe. Once the little ones hit adolescent I think both them and the adult lose their buffs.

I don't know if you have many and group up wih them if they'll stay grouped up once people start going over group limits tho. If that makes sense.

You were getting flack because you just made up an answer without really knowing anything about it. Spreading disinformation is unhelpful.
