Dinosaurs Dinosaur Pack Hunting Attacking & Defending Behavior Idea

Your Feature Request / Idea
My idea is for you to add a pack system in the game like when dinos get into fights herbivore or carnavore fighting or carnavore on carnavore example: raptors they are known to hunt in packs but in game when they get into fights its 1 on 1. What you should do is the smaller carnavores that we know hunt in packs like raptors when it comes to fights basicaly all the carnavores you can place multiple of same species in a encloseure like.

to name a few raptors - Deinonychus - Ceratosaurus so on same with some herbivores the Trike types dinos - the steg type dinos so on

with the small carnavores if one is fighting and there are 2 or 1 near they will come to help if its a large dinos that would need more than one like a trike only a maximum of 3 for smaller dinos to not over power them. Then when it comes to medium carnivores like the carno or ceratosaurus they could have 1 other if near by come help if and only if they are a carnavore you can place multiple of in same enclosure.

with large carnavores they dont need it since they are big with herbivores since they dont attack but most of them do defend them selves like the trike types and stegs they can due to there size call or be helped by 1 other of there kind as in real life they would run and wouldent always choose to fight. or the braver ones would stick around and try to defend and fight them of or defend each other so a pack sytem in game like this would be nice.

since then people would in a way get the pack hunting for raptors and any other they wanted it for.
 
if can could a get a moderator to change the name of my post to - Dinosaur Pack Hunting Attacking & Defending Behavior Idea - if you can that would be greate ive figured the title aint that good
 
The pack hunting idea would need a massive reworking of the combat system we have, since it's designed for 1 on 1 combat.
Right now you have 2 dinosaurs facing off, circling each other, taking bites out of each other.
So let's say we add another dinosaur to the mix. OK 3 dinosaurs circling in a 2 vs 1 scenario... that's not too bad but...

...now we need to account for all kinds of possible combinations. 2 vs 2? 2 vs 3? 3 vs 3? 6 vs 4? 8 vs 8? It just doesn't work with this combat system.

An easier idea would be something like: a single raptor cannot take down a Hadrosaur without help from another raptor. Then if it has a buddy it would play the canned animation of both raptors taking it down.
