That's a good tip!

Man when the Ark first came out I made several taming boats and through the years I never thought I would have to make another, it’s fun being primitive again for a change. We all got comfy using other endgame methods to tame easier but this to me is like relearning the basics. Thank you for the video.

😃 I noticed that one could add ramps to the back of the trap angling down over the habitat to lead large+ creatures into the trap from behind. It would cover the entrance with an overhanging ramp, but would also keep anything from following you from behind up to the door opening if you had to run back inside to safety for any reason. I really like this trap and am going to play around with adding to it after I your idea built first. Thanks for the idea video. Watching for more to come.

You could build something like you were saying in ASE but doing a ramp like that the dinos don't fall in anymore. I tried a lot of testing before trying this out and yeah the new dino ai doesn't let them do that. I have used a build similar to what you're talking about and it is a good one too. I appreciate you watching! 😁

I use to use ramps on the front of my raft with door frames instead of gates but that was the old ark not the new one

👍

What’s the reason for using 2 dinosaur gates at the front? Doesn’t the trap work if you swap them for doorframe walls?

@Fynixmech

It's just less structures on the boat. Depending on the server you're playing on you may be able to use walls all the way up but it'll count as more structures on the boat.

today I learned that if you tranq the animal in a pen like this you have to tame them in that area because I first brought a theriz back to my base to tame and when it was complete he teleported back to where I tranq'ed him, at first I thought it was a glitch and went and picked him back up but later that night I grabbed a daedon and brought him back and once the tame was complete he also teleported 7000 feet back to where I trapped him lol

I built and it is fine for taming, but i was trying to transfer a triceratops up to a new base and couldn't get it on board, wouldn't go up the ramp. Would go up the same ramp in an on land building but not the raft. Is this a thing or have I built something wrong?

@Fynixmech

2 ай бұрын

If you're just trying to have it follow you, it might be the ai pathing. It's trying to go around. If it gets stuck at the ramp it might be how the ramp is snapped on.

There's 2 snap points and you have to make sure you get the lower one... as well as make sure there's enough space to walk back. If the boat is smaller than it won't walk into the trap.

And what if that giant annoying sea creature knocks your raft over? Will it still break? I've tried so many times crossing the river without that big idiot bumping me off my raft zzz 🙄 but with no built base on it tho, just a normal raft.

That's a tough one since most creatures wouldn't be able to fit in there. You'd be able to trap mantis and anglerfish. That's about it though. Plus if you were out in the water more tou have to worry about Leeds, which is also tough.

If you put a ceiling on it, but their ai has changed for ASA and makes it a bit more difficult. If it's ASE then no problem. You'd have to build a separate argy specific trap to work in ASA. There's a few builds on youtube, but captain fatdog's will work if you built it on the ceiling.
