An idea to give ceratopsians a bit more personality with wallow/dust bath sequences, inspired by the brief dust bath scene in the 2013 film, Walking with Dinosaurs.
The way I see it working is either as a simple "Roaming" animation sequence just like how the ceratopsians will graze when they're "Roaming". If terrain paint detection for dinosaur animation AI can be or is a thing (if that counts the Indominus rex's camouflage), it would be more ideal if this can happen when a ceratopsian is standing on top of terrain painted dirt or sand.
Or, perhaps it could be a wallowing animation when a ceratopsian is standing in water. I haven't seen any grazing herbivores play their graze animations when in water, so I assume it's a land only sequence, but I could be wrong. In theory, if my guess is correct, perhaps ceratopsians could have a water only animation sequence where they wallow in water when "Roaming". These islands you build on are indeed tropical, so it would add a nice realism touch to the game's atmosphere.
It would be cool if either one or even both of these could be implemented as a conceptual idea to give some of the base game roster dinosaurs some more personality.
