I see the tamed animals not getting pregnant has been mentioned. hopefully the fix is in the works.

I'm with D2 and also wait for the new update patiently. My brave tames have heroically sacrificed half of their numbers defending my compound by now, and I cannot have any new babies to replenish my herd
D2 15. okt. kl. 14:38 
Started having pregnancy problems with all tames. Can't wait for the new update :bulletkin:

I noticed a bug where flyers were unconscious with bleeding but weren't taking any damage from their injuries.

Marlon asked why there aren't any new creatures, and i just use base game models.

Answer is I don't know 3d modeling today, I just know coding lol

If any 3d artists want to add new creatures and will give me permission to add them to the mod, I'll gladly credit and do so

And once my other SAD mods are in a better state, learning3d modeling is on my to do list

Não consegue fazer novos animais gigantes? Sei lá, dinossauros, dragões hehehehe

I got distracted by not just fixing the bug, but adding a feature or two....
TL:DR I'm copying the Projext-X repaired "Biology" Skill to this mod
Which means a new crafting bench and researches

One of which will unlock the below the WiP bar on your tames showing a species "exact" pregnancy chances vs the max that evolution could be.

(I'm also going to include that flag making sure the robots w/ fuel/poison/etc require you to have observed them first to avoid them blocking your screen.)

I'm still having issues with tames not getting pregnant. The second I turned the mod off, I started having pregnancies again.

I really like the mod though. Any suggestions?
Sekret.Squirrel 5. okt. kl. 11:57 
HI, great mod!
Having an issue with a pop up top left corner during guardians scenario describing the consortium dudes with gas canisters. It's currently a game stopper as it won't go away for long and stops game interaction.
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 26. sep. kl. 14:01 
I have edited the code to handle save specific variables better.

Under the hood nomatter if you set the cap or if the cap was based on the max # of attackers; the closer you get to the cap the lower the pregnancy chance.

So 5/6 tames leads to a "real" pregnancy chance of ~10%.

To make sure the mod is working; I will include a few (new) bells and whistles via research.
That will give yall visibility into the "actual" pregnancy chances, and some other tech that will give your tames better. That way if the code is still bricked, that visibility will show 0 (Or something breaks enough to give you an error)
Game_Test 26. sep. kl. 12:36 
Yeah still doesnt work with same issue even with me doing a re-subscription to make sure I downloaded the recent update. Also whats PXR organs? I may not have that or the mod that includes it?
Reedtanguerra 25. sep. kl. 22:13 
My tames still won't get pregnant with the manual override either on or off. I waited half a season on either setting. I'm pretty much assuming I rolled the worst luck and my save game borked during the earlier update as no one else is reporting similar. I'll be fine. I'll build Fygee's battle drones and send them on kamikaze bombing runs against your epic base wrecking critters <3
Reedtanguerra 25. sep. kl. 19:28 
Awesome! Thank you Ark! I didn't mean to rush you at all *facepalm*
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 25. sep. kl. 16:44 
Update pushed, a lot of clicking removing the organs from all the species in the mod...
I'll learn eventually
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 25. sep. kl. 16:36 
Mu update included the PXR organs in the animal loot tables, that's why.

I had not been developing on it in so long I forgot that is one of the things I need to check for.

Will get an update san-organs asap
Game_Test 25. sep. kl. 16:27 
Hey sooo todays update broke this mod for me.

Just after crash landing cinematic, I get a restart required with "Error with Insects Level Up (All Species)! Animals in ILU still have Organs! A game restart is required! Instead of animals spawning a mod error message will be shown!"

And yours is the only mod that i have installed thats updated in the past like 3/4 hours when I was playing earlier. Not sure what you changed but something aint working.
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 25. sep. kl. 15:50 
Hey Reedtanguerra,

I just pushed an update that has a default 30 set in case the code gets confused again.
I also added code to "reset" the override if you uncheck it,

Sorry got lost in lifes updates
Reedtanguerra 25. sep. kl. 14:32 
Checking in on this. It would be very unfortunate if I'm simply the victim of the mod update messing with my existing save game and my tames won't get pregnant anymore, because I could see that happening and it wouldn't be anybody's fault just bad luck
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 23. sep. kl. 7:22 
I'll check later in my day to make sure unsetting the manual overrides doesn't accidentally castrate all tames.

Iirc because of animals having tiers, I only update how many of each species you have once a game week.

So if the above isn't a bug that slipped through, the herd should start to repopulate after a week (and the refresh realizes you have a lot less friends)

The constipation feature shouldn't interact at all with pregnancy..... but I'll double check that as well
Reedtanguerra 22. sep. kl. 20:27 
I have a small problem. I had the manual pregnancy quota override on, then I lost a few tames. My tames didn't get pregnant to replace the lost animals, so then I turned the manual override off, and they still won't get pregnant. Welp, I have successfully neutered my SAD pokemon :D

If it's relevant, I'm keeping my storage stocked, so all animals have the constipated status. Can constipated critters still get pregnant?
Reedtanguerra 21. sep. kl. 18:21 
Yep, makes sense, just wasn't obvious that was what was going on as the UI includes all the stuff lying on the ground as well in your resource numbers. I need a bunch of transport drones to keep up with moving junk around lol :)
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 21. sep. kl. 17:32 
Hey reedtnguerra,

Yes that's what it is. The function I'm using to check is just how much is stored in a storage building under your control.

I didn't think it would be fair to make all your Ulfen constipated because the herd across the mountain decided to eat only laxatives!
Reedtanguerra 21. sep. kl. 17:02 
Oh I bet I just figured it out. The vast majority of my manure is just lying on the ground. The stuff actually stored in a chest by my fermentation barrels is below 300 units. I do have 300 feathers in a shelf by my tailoring workbench though. If I direct my survivors to keep a chest full with 300 units of manure, I bet the limiter will kick in.
Reedtanguerra 21. sep. kl. 16:44 
The drop limit / constipation buff effect appears to be working perfectly for my flock of T5 dodos, but not so much for my herd of Ulfen. I have a mixed herd of T3, 4 & 5 Ulfen and they appear to be dropping manure/applying the buff erratically. I have a stockpile of 9K manure on my save too, so even if the Ulfens were checking for the stockpile based on tier instead of as a total aggregate herd, that seems to not be working as intended?

Pregnancy quota override is working as advertised. <3
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 21. sep. kl. 13:05 
That looks like a unit reaction problem, most likely with the passive tames.

If you notice a high tier passive tame in combat try to call it out, that exact line isn't in the correct spot anymore (Due to the edits I made)

I can try and check the old version what unit that is, but it may not be 1:1

And yes about the PSA, steam is iffy about auto-updating mods
Reedtanguerra 21. sep. kl. 12:28 
PSA: you're going to want to unsub/resub this mod for the most recent 9/21/25 update. I was getting the zaniest log messages on my existing save and the new pregnancy quota mod options weren't even showing up in the options menu until I refreshed as noted
Reedtanguerra 20. sep. kl. 13:47 
I got an in-game pop-up warning on this mod following a bug attack, and my log spammed this message a couple times. Whatever this is can't be terribly common, as I've been playing your mod for high double digit hours now without encountering a problem before

I'm not sure if this bug is coming from this mod, or a base game problem, but my survivors refuse to slaughter an unconscious tame animal. The Slaughter button on the UI will click, and the tame will get outlined in pink, but the survivors will not execute the instruction. Selecting a survivor and right clicking to execute manually results in the survivor completely ignoring the order and continuing on whatever task is next in their task list.
Reedtanguerra 19. sep. kl. 10:23 
Dang Calinostro. 150 T5 anything sounds like a nightmare. I had to tame a herd of Ulfens simply to ensure I can keep my flock of 12 T5 Dodos fed. They are awesome defensive fighters but boy do they eat me out of house and home too
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 19. sep. kl. 9:26 
Funny you should mention those things!

These are pending chances, and haven't been pushed but should be in the next update:
1. Animals will check if the resources it would produce is plentiful (more than 300 in your storage).
If so, it will not drop that resource and instead get a minor buff [imgur.com]
2. I have changed how this mod tracks the max tames.
Instead of it being Bigger bases means more tames allowed in your herd, it will be only capped based on how many enemies you have set can attack you at once.
(I'm trying to get this mod "aware of" any quotas set by the pregnancy quota mod as well, but I will need to work with that author. I've pinged them on the discord so it should also be in the update.
3. In the update, higher tiers of shriekers will produce carbon like their base game counterparts. I didn't realize the higher tier shriekers don't have their pheromones, so I will fix that as well
Calinostro 18. sep. kl. 4:25 
2. I'm currently herding 150 T5 Shriekers in a pretty advanced save and it is an outright pain to deal with the stone production ;), the count explodes to 40k+ in no time. I edited the mod to reduce the production to 1 per cycle. In addition I added the Carbon Nanoglands (also 1 per cycle) and Agitating Pheromones (this one just for convenience. Both make sense given that the Broodmothers already have both features, so having them in an advance evolutionary stage seems plausible. It doesn't have to be just 1 item per resource per cycle but anything above 5 is just overkill.
Calinostro 18. sep. kl. 4:25 
Great that you are still working on it, appreciated. It is fun breeding animals with this mod and using them as a primary force. A couple of suggestions:

1. Consider adding more means to control the population. Preventing reproduction is a good first step but it becomes chore in the later game to keep stuff under control. Being able to filter in the animal window for specific races and a tick box to start/stop reproduction would be nice, if possible. Otherwise a population control like 'Animal Pregnancy Quotas' tries to apply would be cool too. I tested the latter with this mod but it does not seem to work properly.
Reedtanguerra 17. sep. kl. 8:27 
I hilariously have a pair of lvl 5 dodos stuck in an eternal gladiator match. One of them has literally starved to death but the self-healing has kept it alive. My survivors can't kill either of them due to the same problem. The evolved consciousness healing effect is too strong. I'm going to try pacifiers and if that doesn't work, welp, leave em to it I guess xD
Reedtanguerra 16. sep. kl. 21:03 
Spawn evolution seems to be working just fine Ark? I see it recalculate the wave numbers/type of enemy when the attack message initiates
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 13. sep. kl. 14:19 
It is still maintained, life is very good at distractions!

I will test this mod in isolation re the spawning, the berzerk, and the crash/loading issues
Calinostro 10. sep. kl. 3:48 
Hi, not sure if this still maintained but worth a try. While the breading and armor modifications are working just fine, the spawn evolution does not seem to work at all. All spawns stick to the standard patterns. I'm using the mode with the military outpost scenario. Am I missing something or is it nor working as intended (anymore).

Düşünce çok güzel fakat mod sürekli hata veriyor. Ne zaman oyunu kaydedip çıkıp tekrar açsam, bir kaç saniye sonra ekranda hata uyarısı beliriyor düzgün çalışmadığına dair.
nikcevic 22. juli kl. 16:04 
doesn't load anymore for me
Lyfestyle 22. juli kl. 7:18 
Keep rediscovering animals with Rita no plants. I know you are working on a fix.Thanks for the mod.
mrdb74 22. juli kl. 0:13 
When you tame animals and they are evolved why are they going berserk all the time. they got loads of food. i had 8 animals all had to use them for dinner. even the noths.
Ark Builder  [ophavsmand] 20. juli kl. 20:36 
I am working on the fix, will revert to the non July updates in the meantime
Mantastic 20. juli kl. 18:52 
Same issue here. I pinged him on Discord.
Sekret.Squirrel 20. juli kl. 12:06 
Howdy, not sure why as I've not added any mods recently but I get the mod not working error and zero enemies in all scenarios?
Mantastic 18. juli kl. 9:28 
An ArkBuilder mod update day is a good day. Thanks again for your hard work!
Mantastic 11. juli kl. 10:58 
Gujo was working fine for me in the past, they evolved to their top form.

I'll test out the Ulfen this weekend and see what it does.
SoulAngel13 30. juni kl. 11:35 
ps my dogs breed just fine all the way to fenrir and kept going but the other 3 just wont breed after reaching t2 they just stop aka the arch and wooly just wont breed
SoulAngel13 30. juni kl. 11:30 
doesnt look like anyone else is having this issue so maybe its new but i tamed 3 of the animals the ulfen drake and gujo the lv 1 breed into lv 2 i tamed all the first year and by year 4 i still only had my original ones and the lv 2s the lv 2s or T2 are not breeding i thought maybe it was my milking mod but i disabled taht and re tested it still no go any ideas?
HazeKalix 20. juni kl. 18:38 
everytime i do a new game or load into a game i get an error message within 20 minutes of this mod stopping due to an error
Mantastic 2. juni kl. 12:49 
Most minor of suggestions, I'd recommend changing the name of the mod to "Enemies Level Up" just to prevent confusion. :)

@Twini-kiwi I'd recommend not using the Glytch mod with this as there's some conflicts in the code.
