Fences

[Pomstralia]

One of my biggest gripes at the moment is the ability for any dinosaur to break down fences. In particular electrified concrete fences. A struthimimus or velociraptor should not be able to break through a concrete wall even if it banged its head into it for an entire lifetime. What should really happen is the smaller dinosaurs should knock themselves out and fall unconcious to the floor.

Or alternatively find a way to climb over the fence or dig under it.

Well you can certainly roleplay they dig underneath to get out, even if it's not represented graphically?

And add suggestion another animation be added, to the sticky? ..

I lack the imagination to role play

I suggested the same thing. Small dinosaurs cannot break concrete walls or heavy steel fences. Medium dinosaurs can break heavy steel but not concrete. Large dinosaurs can break concrete walls. No dinosaur can break through electrified fences without severe damage to their health or instant death from electrocution after breaching. Raptors and Deinos can climb over non-electrified fences if their comfort levels are low, but not electrified ones.

Interesting. I tend to keep my dinos happy to stop them breaking out, but I guess park owners may want to increase confinement for the same outcome - I guess the game could offer the tradeoff. FD might have to increase the chance of power loss to keep some element of learning in the game.

I agree, the fences appear to be an annoyance rather than a deterrent.

I would also suggest an additional class of fencing, not to mention some form of pro/con description as to how they relate to the dinosaurs.

I had placed a bunch of Deinos in an electrified concrete pen that originally housed a T-Rex prior to a mission. I was blown away by just how quickly they broke through the fence during a storm. The Deinos were completely satisfied, it stormed, and they were out through one small breach by the time the Isla Pena tornado ended. Seems ridiculously easy for small dinosaurs to break out of such overbuilt fences.

I like these ideas!

I like that very much! Post that on wishlist please!!!

Already have. You should echo any idea you like in the wishlist. That's where the devs dwell, and popular demand is probably a concern.

And the electrified ones should have a stun effect along with that. Raptor gets zapped, it will run to another area and attack the fence to check. Now, I rex or Indoraptor? They don't give a you-know-what. Eff yo fence.

I've noticed electrified fences already kind of do this. It doesn't take away health, but 1) for non-electric or unpowered fences an upset animal will attack until they break through or are otherwise interrupted, while 2) for electrified fencing the animal will charge once or twice then take a break for a bit in most cases (story mission creep and island affect this negatively): if it's still mad it'll get back too it, but if its mood has improved above the minimum comfort it will chill out.

My biggest complaint is that as long as you keep them happy any dinosaur can be contained by any fence. The only benefit i can see for the bigger fences is that they take longer to break when the dino gets upset, but with enough time any dinosaur can break any fence. My other complaint is that once they decide to attack the fence they don't stop until they get out, even if you correct their comfort issues and get them up to 100% comfort they keep attacking.
