Patch 1.2.25

Spinosaurus no longer spawns in the Marsh biome. This was done to remove the extreme danger of spinosaurus spawning at most freshwater sources.
Growing directly from eating has returned to the game for the player. Taking a bite of food will make you grow slightly. Larger and older creatures require more food in order to grow. Passive growth is still in the game as well.

Patch 1.2.24

Added some more height variation to the Savage Lands prairie and forest areas.

Patch 1.2.21d

Eating has been changed for carnivores, to be similar to how herbivore eating has been changed to. Up to 24 bites (for a huge eater) can be on huge creature bodies and carcasses. Smaller creatures being able to take more bites from larger bodies and carcasses. This was done to encourage roaming around and searching for food instead of staying at the same food for extended periods of time.
Swallowing food has been adjusted for the titanoboa, to be in line with the above carnivore changes. They should now be able to swallow prey of the appropriate size.
Fixed some glitches with the new scent system.
Fixed a glitch with carnivores carrying dead creatures in their mouth and how they weren't appearing in or near the carrier's mouth. Carrying a dead body only works if the dead creature is under a certain size compared to the carrier. You can pick up or drop a dead body with the "G" key. (Ragdolls will be implemented for dead creatures in a future patch!)
