Dinosaurs Perhaps an odd request

Your Feature Request / Idea
Not sure if I am weird for wanting this but here goes. I don't think I have seen this before. I would like to have a button on all the dinos that allows a random skin color every time one is created. I like many of the colors and options and wouldn't want to take that away. I would just love to have the option to randomize and be completely surprised by the different dinosaurs that come out. To me random colors seems like something that could be more immersive. What does everyone else think?

That's certainly a nice feature.

An interesting idea. But why stop there? Why not have a randomise button for all genes? That way you could get even more surprises. Sometimes you might get a dinosaur that's really good with defence. Or sometimes you might get like a dinosaur that's hyper aggressive.
It could even be built in to the lore of the world. It could be like ordering a dinosaur from a different genetics company. That would especially fit considering that there have been hints that the new film will involve other parties also making their own dinosaurs.

So "random genome" options...I'd use it, at least in campaign and sandbox. The incubation price could be an average of the prices of all the unlocked genes...so when using this option you have (making up the numbers but you get the point) a 49% chance of getting a dinosaur that's worth more than what you spent, 49% chance of getting a dinosaur that's not worth it (losing money) and a small chance (2%) of getting a dinosaur that's worth just that.

Dinosaur stats (Attack, Defense, Resilience, Lifespan, Rating and Viability) wouldn't be visible during incubation (would appear as "???" or "UNKNOWN" until the dinosaur is ready for release or the incubation fails, whatever happens)
