I'd personally like the disease system to get an overhaul.
Every disease your dinosaurs get feels the same, Rabies feels no different from Tuberculosis which feels no different from Cyptosporidium and so on, also when dinosaurs are diseased you don't see their health visually deteriorate, in JPOG dinosaurs eventually went Comatose if they didn't receive medical care, that being said, not all diseases should just drain the health of a dinosaur and nothing else.
I always thought that by reworking the disease system, it will allow for a more deeper experience, and allows the dinosaurs to feel more authentic and real.
Dinosaurs infected with the common cold sneeze a lot and eventually after no treatment, it converts to Avian influenza, and if the Avian influenza is left untreated, it leads to death.
Dinosaurs infected with rabies are extremely aggressive and are constantly agitated, and if left untreated become comatose and unresponsive.
Dinosaurs infected with Tuberculosis cough, I imagine their cough would sound like a honking noise, perhaps like a goose honk? Eventually it'd lay down and die.
Dinosaurs infected with Tapeworms can't get the nutrients they require even if they eat, thus they'd starve to death.
Dinosaurs infected with Cryptosporidium dehydrate and refuse to eat, resulting in malnutrition and then death.
Etc, etc.
I don't know if anyone else would like this, but what can I say I'm a sucker for small details.
Edit: Grammar and punctuation.

I hope this, and that other person's suggestion will get added, even just some of it.
