Gameplay Options v1
🔹There is now a new tab in the game options called 'Gameplay'. It contains two different sets of options.
🔹The first new set of options is the 'Spawning' options. These sliders control how many random dinosaurs spawn around the map. When you change and apply this value you'll need to reload the current map in order for the changes to take affect. When the slider is at 100% that means 1000 creatures of that type will be able to spawn randomly. When the slider is at 0% that means that no creatures of that type will be able to spawn randomly. The default value for terrestrial creatures is 300. The default value for aerial creatures is 50. The default value for amphibious creatures is 25. The default value for aquatic creatures is 300. Changing this value can affect the game's FPS.
🔹The second new set of options controls how far away you can see dinosaurs and edible plants. Changing the view distance for dinosaurs can have a big impact on FPS because the dinosaurs are coming out of their inactive state and are becoming active, wandering around, looking for food, etc.
🔹The build now uses the 'Default' compression method instead of the 'LZ4' compression method. This was done to reduce patch size and enable Steam to determine which chunks of game data need to be downloaded for patches. If the game crashes on startup after this update please uninstall and reinstall the game, that should fix the problem.
