Cryopod suggestions

Suggestion

Here's a few suggestions I have regarding Cryopods (not about bringing them back to how they were in the OG ARK):

  • The time it takes to cryo a dino is now based on its drag weight:
    • It should be that the time it takes to cryo a dino is based on its drag weight. Larger creatures take longer. There is a minimum time to cryo of 1 second, and for every 1 drag weight, it adds 0.01 extra seconds. However, it CANNOT take more than 15 seconds to cryo a dino! If this limit were not put in place, Basilosaurus would take 2 minutes to cryo, and who wants to sit in front of a whale while trying to cryo it for 2 minutes? The time it takes to cryo a dino is NOT rounded. Here's a few examples:
      • Raptors have a drag weight of 85, which is below 100, meaning they will take exactly 1 second to cryo.
      • Parasaurs have a drag weight of 125, meaning 1.25 seconds to cryo.
      • Argents have a drag weight of 150, meaning 1.5 seconds to cryo.
      • Carnos have a drag weight of 250, meaning 2.5 seconds to cryo.
      • Mammoths have a drag weight of 400, meaning 4 seconds to cryo.
      • Rexes have a drag weight of 550, meaning 5.5 seconds to cryo.
      • Mosasaurs have a drag weight of 899, meaning 8.99 seconds to cryo.
      • Gigas have a drag weight of 950, meaning 9.5 seconds to cryo.
      • Brontos have a drag weight of 1000, meaning 10 seconds to cryo.
      • Tusoteuthis have a drag weight of 1500, meaning 15 seconds to cryo.
      • Basilosaurus have a drag weight of 12000, which would mean 120 seconds (2 minutes) to cryo, but because of the 15-second limit, they take 15 seconds to cryo.
  • A structure that allows cryo'd dinos to passively generate resources over time as long as the cryo'd dino is in that structure:
    • There should be a TEK-tier structure that, if powered by a TEK Generator, allows dinos in Cryopods to generate resources such as feces, unfertilized eggs, and some other special resources:
      • Achatina: Produces Snail Paste and Organic Polymer over time, and Organic Polymer is refrigerated while in this structure.
      • Dung Beetle: Produces Fertilizer and Oil over time if there are feces in the structure.
      • Iguanodon: Produces Seeds over time if there are Berries in the structure.
      • Ovis: Produces Wool over time.
