Talk:Feeder/@comment-212.87.158.86-20150325123726

alright guys... i tested the feeder with various dinosaurs..various ages... etc. and i figured out some really weird stuff.

in smp my tamed herbivore dinosaur will not use the feeder at all. but my carnivore dinosaur uses it occasionally..

in ssp its the other way around.. also, i placed 4 feeders in a cage, in the ground, 1 block high, 2 and 3.. then i spawned in some cows and let my dinosaur hunt them.. while using chickn essence thing to boost the process.. after a while i saw one feeder (the 3 block hight one) having less food stored in it than the others... so the dinosaur must have used it at some point...

i also found something else in the update notes:

Dinosaur Eat/Hunt code will not run if Dinosaur_Starve is set to false. This may increase performance since if dinosaurs don't get hungry there's no need to run code to find food. Players can still hand feed tamed dinosaurs.

i think its not the feeders not working.. but the eat/hunt code..they will not look for the feeders if the starve boolean is set to false.. and i cant really see and control when this changes its value.. so all in all.. dinosaurs will not use the feeders properly.. and they will starve.. really annoying in smp!.. i hope the creators of this mod will read this and release a little hotfix  just to adress this issue so our dinosaurs wont have to starve all the time -_- anyway - great mod!!

ps: you can tame an untamed dinosaur by handfeeding it. this is not explaind on this wiki anywhere. also.. it doesnt work all the time.. possible bug, i dont know.
