Perhaps that's why they went extinct to begin with. At the end of the day it's a game mechanic, one that keeps you from causally leaving creatures undefended and on passive. ...and guessing about when the games spawning logic will just randomly decide to plop one down inside your completely enclosed building. That a game feature too, right Rnager>?< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps I've been lucky... perhaps I just pay attention to where the creatures spawn in and don't build directly over those spots. Either way, my creatures can either defend themselves or have a turret covering them, so in the final analysis it's not going to ever be an issue for me.

Woodsman Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 How long did it take a lvl 15 pego to kill a 120 lvl bronto? Must have taken around an hour or so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animals will mob their predators to an extent but will know when to leave well alone also. They have also evolved other methods of survival aswell, running away if they spot a predator lol. Sparrows can mob off a potential predator if they find it, but will just generally scatter in an attempt to get away, every bird for itself when caught by surprise. A single pego will not succeed in driving off a giga. At that point the pego is just asking itself to remove itself from the gene pool. Its a bit like a sparrow attacking a lion rather than a much more managable hawk. The pego should just flat out avoid larger predators. Another example. My small miniature Schnauzer goes after my Boxer who is 5 times her size all the time LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens all the time in nature, but what I am saying is its generally not a good idea not to waltz up to your apex predator 100x your size and start nibbling its toe nails hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It drops them on the ground in a box. How many items have gotten "stolen" and just not picked back up? They will eat food they grab out of your inventory though.

These guys put in the work! Also they are so annoying. We have them all around the obs. They act as early warning for any cross server raiders.

In a video i saw them spawning INSIDE the base (with foundations and everything) a full pack of allos! In this case there's nothing to do but move the base or leaving something on neutral. Time ago it happened to me too, in my stables. A dilo, this time, killed part of my horses and pego spawned in front my rhinos (parked in the stable). What I noticed it was that the spot was the same when the pego attacked the rhino it got killed because I left my hyaenas on neutral But now I solved the issue building on pillars ( is PvE) and if something spawns it will be trapped under the building mwahahabah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MayonnaisePlease Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 On 11/7/2017 at 10:55 AM, Ranger1 said: Nature is full of examples of small creatures attacking vastly larger creatures with the intent to either drive them off or kill them, frequently for territorial reasons. Sparrows attacking hawks (something I see nearly every day), Raccoons or boars attacking bears, Peccary's attacking Jaguars, it's not all that uncommon in nature, and if the larger creature won't (or can't) leave the area death is not out of the question in many cases.

Fire ants routinely attack and sometimes kill livestock of all kinds (including horses) in the American southwest and points further south. Army ants kill everything in their path regardless of size or obstacles present (including rivers). Just sayin'... Edit: Then again, perhaps you shouldn't search those videos out.

Tyrfing Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Passive on a dino not in a pen is disastrous.. if your going to do that park them near species x plants at least. I've had a few dino's get mauled by pego's, rexes and what not because i forgot they were on passive while outside... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when the inverts start taking on vertebrates.... Ill just avoid those videos..... Ants fascinate yet terrify me at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
