Great Update, continuing issues (1.7.0/1.7.2)

Feeders, vehicles, Dinosaur behaviour and large map performance on PS5
Hello all, I’m loving the new species and the Dino stuttering has gotten much better on my maps with lots of animals. I love all the new flora and the large square maps especially.

However, the performance on PS5 on these large maps is pretty brutal. I am trying to build a park and I only have maybe 10 animals in it but the frames stutter and sputter awfully. There is also an issue I have found where both carnivores and herbivores will just roam and starve. I then have to save then load the file again and it resets them so that they will hunt and eat, only to have it happen to different animals in the park.

I have also encountered an issue in a different park where my live prey feeders won’t dispense a goat at all in any of my enclosures. JP tour vehicles bounce around when they encounter the most minor bump and if they’re hit by a dinosaur, the car bounces and flips around, sometimes flying in the air. It’s like they’re made of rubber.

I have also discovered that, on console at least, when you go into first person to drive any vehicle, it doesn’t work. No buttons respond. I’ve also encountered something where ranger teams will pass through concrete walls if an invisible fence is connected to them. I love the game and I hope this list isn’t too crazy but I feel that since the Biosyn dlc the bugs and issues have become more frequent. I hope something can be done.

Thank you for reading and have a great day!
Matt

About dinos not eating or drinking, did you their check their stamina while they were roaming? And did you check what they were doing in their status tab? Ive had issues were dinos would choose to drink/eat from a very specific and far away place, run out of stamina and then just walk very slowly towards the place they chose to eat/drink which often leads to death for the small dinos

I've never heard this suggestion before. Any idea as to how to work around this ?

Place more food and water, shrink the enclosure size, and / or genetically modify their hunger and thirst needs and stamina. I always release creatures at max stamina cause they'll often wander very far away from food and water and will take forever to reach it again. They'll often drain all of their stamina in the process and be forced to slowly walk their way back to food and water. This is especially an issue with the tiny animals since they take forever to cover even small distances. Sauropods don't have stamina issues, but their incredible slowness means that they tend to suffer hunger and thirst issues too at least until their territory has adjusted properly to available food and water sources.

But what about the open space of the dino ? Or am I just not understanding it ? Doesn't open space mean the size of the enclosure ?

No, open space refers to how much space devoid of forest there is in an enclosure. If you fill an entire enclosure up with forest, then there will be no open space. If you remove all of the forest from an enclosure, then it will be all open space. Whether or not an enclosure devoid of forest has enough open space to satisfy needs depends on the enclosure's size and the species' needs.
