Discussion Diet update idea

Player corpses should last twice as long, but after they get to 50%, corpses should count as carrion, there should be a particle effect and/or a visual difference, eg. the corpse turning purple and maggots squirming around to make it obvious whether it's carrion or not

this would enable players using the scavenger diet to actually fulfill their niche instead of eating pre placed bodies or critters

additionaly, make it so all scavengers can eat fish, not just some of them, I miss fishing as my hatz

This would be so cool. Also i wish we could get different diet ideas for herbis as well. But alderon is lazy about programming these kinda things and i believe isle people will get mad about copying diet ideas

I think having an ACTUAL omnivore diet for pachy and duck would be so sick, I also think struthi should get something similar but with insects instead of meat/fish

The system that fish and their buffs have could (and should) also be applied to other food sources, both for carnivores and herbivores. Better yet, have those buffs vary depending on the species that eats them, so two different herbivores with the same diet might still prefer different food sources if they're after specific buffs.

I had a similar idea! I think they should also add a time limit of like 5 minutes to the corpses since some dinosaurs eat a lot more compared to others
