Prey needs

As many may have noticed who saw the chaos theory tests of the various youtubers, the T-Rex need 3 prey animals in the enclosure.
So that means you need 3 live feeders. That seems too much to me somehow.
Now we don't need a plant feed dispenser, but we have to flood our carnivores with feeders.
I hope this hunting need can also be satisfied by other dinosaur species, as it just looks strange to have 3 or more ugly feeders in every carnivore enclosure
 
Agreed but I think a better alternative would be to just have 3 goats in an enclosure = 3 prey. That way you don't need loads of feeders and you don't need to pay to replace loads of Dinosaurs when a carnivore kills them.
 
In the original, you could set feeder dispesion speed, as well as dispense manually. That'll likely return. Just release three goats quickly, and then set a fast enough speed that at least three goats are always there at a time.
 
idk but in best in slots videos he had to build 2 feeders for the raptors and he tested it after he had over 5 goats and a parasaur in this exhibit he deleted the 2 feeders and the raptors were instant unhappy because thex had 0/2 Prey.

Hopefully they change this or give us at least the option for sandbox to deactivate this. Don't want any kind of feeder in a side B build
 
That should add more animals like a pig that gives two because it runs away from the dinos faster so that gives more of a hunting feel for the dinos and a cow that gives three but you should only give it to the larger dinos because it won’t be much of a hunt for the faster dinos and the goat is something that’s more for the early game when you can’t afford to research a cow or pig kind of like the backup generators great for early game but not great for everything after that like Best In Slot said

It should work like that but unfortunately doesn't. You need 3 separate prey sources. Or in other words 3 feeders.
 
Yeah I don't like these prey requirements, not so much needing prey, but that they seemed to hunt non stop. I wouldn't think frontier would make carnivores hunt non stop again after the first game but it worryingly seems like it. But maybe if they feed and are satisfied they wont. If a Rex leaves it's territory to hunt and kills 3 para's before it feeds im going to be upset.
 
personaly i'm fine with the non stop killing in the campaign and chaos mode. Bevor JWE1 fixed that it was really easy for me to complete every islands with only 2 exhibits on each island. 1 for big carnivores and one for smales. So it was easy to push the dinosaur rating by just let them kill constantly.
But yeah for sandbox they have to add an option for just hunting when hungry
