What carnivores are a good choice to group together that won’t put either into a state of constant panic? Been messing around in sandbox and wanted to do a park that showcases two different species per paddock. My dilos seem to freak out with everything even with their comfort and social requirements off. Are they just a lost cause and should just be isolated? Iraptors and irex are a match. Same with Spino and spinoraptor. Curious on other combos that bring balance.
Carnivore shared enclosure recommendations

I dont think there is a combination that will not have the small carnivores panic. You can basically put any large carnivore with a small carnivore and get away with it. The smaller carnivores will panic but if the enclosure is large enough and you provide enough food and water itll be fine. I am always mixing large and small in my challenge play throughs.
You cant mix small carnivores with other small carnivore, or large carnivores with other large carnivores without them killing each other.

This is true. I’m in sandbox mode though and have all the options for them not to kill one another. It’s just the panic thing. Might have to just keep some separate.

The combos of small & large won't matter, it's the enclosure that really matters. Pending on how many you attempt to put into 1 pen, you will need multiple sources of water, feeders & extra space.
My rule of thumb is 1 live feeder, and +1 stationary meat feeder per large carnivore & +2 watering holes per large carnivore. For example, if I have 3 Ceratos in a pen, that means I need 5 water sources, 1 goat feeder & 4 meat feeders for the smaller guys. If I have 2 Spinos, I need 1 goat & 3 meat feeders and 4 water sources. It won't stop smaller carnivores from panicking around bigger ones, but it will allow them to eat and drink.
Extra space also helps, particularly with the medium carnivores like Cerato & Baryonx. Both don't need a ton of space, but if you build a pen that just barely meets their requirements, it will be pretty small. And the smaller carnivores will have less room to avoid them.
