Some dinosaurs don’t seem to match their described size, i.e most stegosaurs, seem smaller than pachycephalosaurus even though described as being bigger just trying to make the Devs aware just in case it’s a bug, would love some feedback
Devs: Some dino sizes seem off

Some information is definitely not matching what the dinosaur is listed as. For one example, in Spino's description it says that it's 18m in length, but the data has it listed at 15m length (which matches its JWE1 size).
Beyond the stegosaurs, it seems that Diplodocus has received a nerf for unknown reasons when it honestly could've used a buff from the first game to put it at 32m. It's now listed at 24m compared to 29m before, and its in-game model does appear to be noticeably smaller now. Honestly, Diplo, Brachi, Mamenchi, and Dread are all a good amount undersized in the data and in-game.
One more in-game that I noticed right away is Ankylosaurus - it was one of the few dinosaurs in the first game that had an accurate estimated length of 7.9m. For.... reasons(?), it's now been buffed up to 9.6m length(!). This seems reflected in-game as it now actually looks huge when standing next to an Apato, or when facing off against a large carnivore like I.rex.
Long story short, many dinos got a needed update. But, many sizes are still looking wonky, and now a few more unnecessarily so. :/

also the flying reptiles, I really don't like the size comparison. the small dimorphodon and bigger pteranodon(comparing by the scene where the flying reptiles ttack people in JW1) are the same size in the game.
