sandbox ideas

Perhaps an overhaul of how sandbox starts, perhaps just a different sandbox mode. Add island navigation like in the main JWE campaign to sandbox and allow us to hop around to all the islands. Each island would share the same sandbox rules. They would also all be in the same era.

Give us the option to start sandbox with dig sites and research reset, so we can play starting "from scratch" but with our custom set sandbox rules.

No matter what dinosaur options I set, I can't seem to get them to interact (play fight) like they do normally in campaign. I don't know if this is related to dinosaur social requirements or dinosaur combat settings or both but it could be nice to have it reworked into a separate dinosaur play fight/fight for dominance setting. Same with goat hunting.

Allow us to set the frequency of weather and not just the weather type.

Maybe it's just me but I also wish to see the expedition map, fossils, and ingen database (and island navigation as stated above) added to the control room. Just seems like some basic parts of the game were removed for sandbox which kinda goes against giving us the option to play how we want.

Would also be nice to have the option to start the islands from scratch like we do now or with the preset buildings like they start in the campaigns. For example I'd love to play a sandbox on Isla Nublar 1993 but with the fence and building layout from the beginning of the Return to Jurassic Park campaign.

PS: Add option to turn division reputation on/off. With no rep in sandbox, visitor centers are just decoration and can't generate income. Plus, with the proposed option to start a sandbox with nothing researched, some items can hide behind reputation unlocks.

I guess all in all what I'm really saying is let's upgrade sandbox mode to give it the ability to serve as a customizable campaign mode.
