ARK: Survival Evolved Patch 193.0 – Patchnotes

New Elements

• New Items: Small and Large Bear Traps, for locking players and dinos in their tracks!
• New Structure: Stone Behemoth Gate
• New rare “Alpha” T-Rex can be found that is bigger and meaner than the regular T-Rex with distinct color schema, gives a unique cosmetic (and a ton of XP and resources) if you defeat it. It also buffs the resistance and damage of nearby carnis around it due to its Alpha-pack dominating status. You can’t tame it… yet… but we’d like feedback on whether the community would be interested in more of this direction.

Gameplay changes

 

• Tamed Dinos now lay Eggs over time without having to leave them alone i.e. they now do it in real-time and you can watch them… o_O
• Dealt with the Trilobites’ resources: they now clamp resource harvest amounts (no overdamage.. we need to ween off that , they only yield pearls and oil rarely, and they are significantly less common in the shallows.
• More dino blood overlays, & option to disable Dino blood overlays
• Stone harvesting settings are back at +75%. An underlying change with the harvesting system had inadvertently affected them, thanks for the reports

 

Bugfixes

• You can no longer damage Tamed dinos thru Walls/Structures (prevents cheaping out people’s dinos from outside their bases)
• Fixed bug where clients sometimes couldn’t see the equipped items/saddles on characters
• Aquatic dinos swimming against water surface is now perfectly smooth, doesn’t result in a hard-stop of your character anymore.
• Added the rest of the Dino Damage overlays
• Canteens are no longer consumed when making soups
