If you are using the commands given in mod description, which are added to the GameUserSettings.ini and NOT the Game.ini file... You CAN NOT change your mod ID order, add or remove any mods using your admin control panel (if your server is hosted) or it will overwrite and delete all the settings pertaining to dragons. A new file is written each time you "save" your settings in your admin Cpanel... which I think is causing a lot of confusion here.

[Small_Dragons]

RunSpeedModifier=3.000000

FlyingRunSpeedModifier=1.000000 *(do not change this or you will be changing it back)

FireDamage=18.000000 *(set this to 12.000000 or less)

RunStaminaConsumeRate=0.0

WalkStaminaConsumeRate=0.0


Also note. DO NOT change the run speed or flyingrunspeed from the default or you will rubberband terribly. Im not sure why this was given as an option (obviously not tested) becaus anything but default setting causes terrible lag and banding.

Stamina drain and Fire damage can be altered and this does in fact work as long as you FTP to your server and "edit" the file instead of using a admin panel, for reasons described.

We leave our fire damage at 12 and it seems to balance out nicely for our server settings which are wild dinos x5 def and x4 damage. I would think a setting of 8 or 9 would suffice for nerfing on vanilla wild dinos.


If you would like to balance the real meat of the problem.. you need to change the settings in your Game.ini

You can use these settings to start with then adjust as needed. This is for tamed vs wildx5dmgx4def so it may not be enough. Just lower the numbers a bit on both def and dmg.

To reduce population to only a few per server, try this. Adjust as needed depnding on your overall spawn multiplyer.

DinoSpawnWeightMultipliers=(DinoNameTag=SDragon,SpawnWeightMultiplier=0.1,OverrideSpawnLimitPercentage=true,SpawnLimitPercentage=0.01)

To balance defense.

TamedDinoClassResistanceMultipliers=(ClassName="Small_Dragon_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=0.15)

To balance Damage.

TamedDinoClassDamageMultipliers=(ClassName="Small_Dragon_Character_BP_C",Multiplier=0.5)
