After the patch in question, I collected over 2 dozen eggs in two days. Before the change in egg laying involving owner presence, I got very very few eggs (maybe one every three days). I have a male pulminoscorpious and three females parked in my dino yard for laying purposes. It seems to me the egg laying rates have gone down dramatically, after increasing dramatically with the change in whether or not the owner need to be present or not for laying to occur. I have this happen all the time with my argents and pteras up on the roof, I see the eggs on the ceiling then leave the area for 5-10 minutes and come back with the eggs on the ground.Since the last patch where male egg laying was cut, and only mate-boosted females were supposed to lay eggs, I've seen raptors and trikes not mate boosted lay eggs. Example is throwing an item from your inventory being on the ground compared to being up in the air or on the water surface.įalling through structure only applies if there's an already existing egg there then you leave the area allowing the place to go in stasis and the eggs fall through. I moved them up to the second floor of a house up on a cliff, but not much difference.Ĭan anyone confirm if you actually loose eggs when dinos are on a particular terrain? Where do most people put their egg farms? K key doesnt help once something falls through the ground as there's no solid ground for it to stop. I have 8 female and 1 male dilo, and almost never see eggs. I dont see any when I hit K and look under ground. Originally posted by Akita:So Im curious if my problem getting very few eggs is due to the "falling through the ground" effect mentioned in that link above. It's a bit tedious this way (takes up to a few hundred Dodo eggs) but easier to do if you're lacking big eggs, and since the level on the Oviraptor doesn't matter for egg producing you can make the tame easier by finding the lowest level possible. My advice is take time to collect some small eggs like Dodo eggs or eggs you don't really need and tame an Oviraptor, it's worth it. If it's say a dino pen next to your base then there should always be plenty of eggs. If dinos don't have a player kind of close to them (not sure what the actual distance is) they don't lay eggs. Is egg laying based on player location at all or is it just a constant thing? I remember hearing something about stasis but then also hearing that eggs can be laid during stasis now. Kinda sucks there's no slider for it in game settings when loading. I might do this just for the sake of time.

Yoy can change the 0.01 to what ever you want. Originally posted by rommel64:In single player you could add this line to your game.ini and you'll have a lot of eggs.

Statistically things can be against you at times and then other times you'll be inundated with eggs(if you got lots of dinos). Since you say you cannot(and Im assuming your wincingly playing on an official server or sp with default settings) get an oviraptor, then you are stuck with just getting lots and lots of females of the same dino type.Įgg laying isnt a guarantee. And also enabling this better is having an oviraptor, weighted down, and put on wander(so it doesnt move) for a better drop chance bonus. Really significant numbers of eggs(and more importantly consistently so) only come about with not just 2 or so/// more like 5-12(depending on the dino). Originally posted by Zedrin:I've been trying to get a few specific eggs to make kibbles, but for some reason a lot of my dinos are really slow at laying them. I'm having trouble getting eggs in the first place, I don't exactly have eggs to spare, let alone any large eggs that they'd like.

Is there anything specific that helps dinos lay eggs? Should I have them just on the ground or should I have them on a foundation?Īlternatively if there's better ways to encounter and steal wild eggs i'm all ears.ĮDIT: do not suggest getting an oviraptor. My dilos seem to lay eggs fairly consistently but I have lik 12.įor a while my lystrosaurs were also laying eggs but now they've stopped, after I got my 5th one. My pachys haven't laid a single egg yet (but don't have a male to mate boost so that probably explains it) Same goes for my scorpians (both are 2F 1M), only my first scorpian egg was when it was by itself.ĭimorphidons are the same way. My pterodons have provided me with only 2 eggs over a long course of time. I try to aim for at least 1 male and 2 females of whatever I'm working with. I've been trying to get a few specific eggs to make kibbles, but for some reason a lot of my dinos are really slow at laying them.
