Pugnacia Dinos *UPDATED*
skipping 5 Mar, 2018 @ 8:52pm
Idea - Tamed Dino bonuses
The idea is to make every dino have a reasonable or desirable bonus. Some balancing may be needed but I have seen so many improvements to dinos and gameplay via Pugnacia, I do not have the desire to change to any other core mod again. I would lose too many lifestyle improvements. I think these ideas would continue that design principle.

Ideas
---
Is there a list of Pugnacia dinos without any bonuses, or do not produce an item?

For any spawn ideas, all dinos would need to be set to wander to produce an item. Unless noted, I would apply these ideas mainly to males, if the female dino already has a bonus, such as egg laying or item production.

Featherlight – Slowly refills any charge batteries in inventory.

Glowtail - Spawns an empty charge battery, very long timer, requires obsidian in inventory.

Bulbdog – Slowly refills any charge batteries in inventory, requires raw meat in inventory to work.

Shinehorn – Slowly refills any charge batteries in inventory, requires wood, bamboo or another new wood item, randomly gathered resource from trees.

Angler – Angler gel.

Araneo (male only) – Spider silk (potential adhesive armor ingredient for ghillie?)

Diplocaulus – Slowly refills/repairs oxygen tanks. If not possible, 300-500 second temporary boost to oxygen stat.

Equus – On wander, extremely long timer (real life days), zebra stripe skins for armor parts.

Equus or Gallimimus– Not on wander, gives a temporary speed buff.

Jerboa – Only when worn on shoulder, temporary stat boost, hyper-thermal insulation, similar to otter. Not sure if already implemented.

Karkinos (crab) – Slowly transform organic polymer into solid polymer. Must have a second solidifying item in inventory, consumed with each instance. Perhaps sand and near an irrigated water source.

Lymantria (female only) – Moth silk. (potential adhesive ingredient for desert armor)

Lystrosaurus (male only) – Temporary exp gain stat boost, even when not in range. Length of effect, upto 600 seconds, depends on number of female lystrosaurus in range, set on wander.

Monkey boss – On wander, spawns massive poop. Ever heard of angry monkeys? Its not a joke. Go visit a zoo.

Morellatops (male only) – Temporary stat boost, reduced water consumption.

Morellatops (female only) – On wander, very slowly fills up with water, even while indoors.

Nameless – Nameless venom or spawns a glowbug, maximum of two bugs at the same time, that are on a long death timer. Would provide an interesting indoor lighting aspect to bases.

Onyc – Bat wings (new recipe for temporary fly speed buff)

Ovis Minion (Not regular Ovis) – Spawns wool, must have working scissors (repaired) in inventory.

Pelagornis – Naturally attracts coel, sabertooth salmon, tames them over time, if possible, for fish meat production.

Piranha – Leech blood, very slowly. Perhaps a few different blood types, for new recipes (hp boost, etc).

Purlovia – Not on wander. Naturally burrows underground when left idle for 1+ hours. When a tribe member is in view distance, it jumps out of the ground at them.

Rock Elemental – Every 5-10 stone consumed, randomly produces 1 flint, crystal or obsidian.

Sabertooth – Not on wander. Temporary stat boost to damage.

Titanboa – Titanboa venom

Therizino, Stego or Diplodocus – On wander, produces a limited amount of random berries on a timer.

Troodon – Special poison, able to be applied to weapons, lasting 30-600 seconds. May deal torpor or just applies a deadly poison effect to the recipient.

This would be pretty awesome. I mean, the best part of pug is already the increased utility of the roster, of yea. This would be awesome.
