Overview
A very useful automation item. Provides storage, as well as many of the benefits of having dinos outside left on wander, without impacting server performance. The availability of automation options will be determined by your server settings. Automation is not enabled by default on servers.
Poop Generation
Creatures that normally poop when outside the terminal will continue to do so inside when enabled.
This is distinguished from misc poop by the ability to convert it into fertilizer; if a dino poops something and you can convert it to fertilizer, it's poop generation.
Only adults poop. (Keep in mind even as adults, not all dinos do)
Poop formula
Successful Check (Fuel Consumed If Using Fuel)
(Poop Interval × WC Poop Multiplier) ÷ Ovi Multiplier = Poop Rate
(Check Interval ÷ Poop Rate) × Poop Multiplier = Chance To Poop (Can Go Above 100%)
Misc Poop Generation
Creatures that normally poop when outside the terminal will continue to do so inside when enabled.
This is distinguished from poop because you cannot convert it into fertilizer.
Misc poop formula
Successful Check (Fuel Consumed If Using Fuel)
(Poop Interval × WC Poop Multiplier) ÷ Ovi Multiplier = Poop Rate
(Check Interval ÷ Poop Rate) × Poop Multiplier = Chance To Poop (Can Go Above 100%)
Production
Oviraptor soul presence will boost production values of eggs, poop and misc poop. Only 1 is needed for max effect.
All types of automation are completely dynamic (will work with all mod dinos) except for Passive generation, for which support must be manually added. This means only a limited number of mod dinos can have passive generation support. For an incomplete list see below.

KBD Coelacanth Generation
The Coelacanth (KBD) passively produces random items from the following list: Sap, Cementing Paste, Silica Pearls, Organic Polymer, Charcoal, Scrap Metal, Stone Arrows, Tranq Arrows, Metal Arrows, Tranq Darts, all types of berry, Biotoxin, Leech Blood, Ammonite Bile, Squid Oil, Angler Gel, Sulfur, Sand, Crystal, Obsidian, Clay, Ambergris, Plant Species X, Y, and Z Seeds, and Absorbant Substrate. Please note: due to a bug, the resources produced in the terminal differ from this list.
Ini Options
Place your Dino Storage ini in the gameusersettings.ini file under the [DinoStorage2] header
Ini Options — Automation
Ini Options — Basic Automation
Option | Default | Possible Values | Description |
---|---|---|---|
EnableFertEggCollection | false | false/true | Automatically picks up nearby Fertilized Eggs |
EnableIncubation | false | false/true | Passively incubates fertilized eggs in its inventory to 1/100 Egg Incubation |
EnableEggGeneration | false | false/true | Passively generates eggs from creatures within the terminal. This REQUIRES a male for most species |
EnablePassiveGeneration | false | false/true | Passively generates resources usually produced by creatures within the terminal. See list above |
EnableMiscPoopGeneration | false | false/true | Passively generate resources usually defecated by creatures within the terminal, excluding feces. See list above |
EnablePoopGeneration | false | false/true | Passively generate feces usually defecated by creatures within the terminal |
EnablePoopConversion | false | false/true | Passively converts feces into Fertilizer and Oil. Requires Dung Beetles. Fertilizer can be automatically distributed to nearby Crop Plots |
EnableFruitSeeding | false | false/true | Passively converts berries into seeds. Requires Iguanodon |
EnableWoolGeneration | false | false/true | Passively produces wool. Requires Ovis |
EnableHoneyGeneration | false | false/true | Passively produces honey. Requires Queen Bee |
EnableAllGeneration | false | false/true | Enables all automation options with "generation" in their name |
Ini Options — Advanced Automation
Option | Default | Possible values | Description |
---|---|---|---|
AutomationFuelCounter | 1 | >= 1 | controls after how many automation cycles fuel is needed |
TerminalCheckInterval | 60.0 | >= 60.0 | how often the terminal checks for new items to be generated/picked up. Increasing this does not hinder rates, but may improve server performance. Value is in seconds |
AutomationItemBlacklist | N/A | short blueprint path separated by comma, see Item IDs | what items are not allowed to be generated with automation. Example: AutomationItemBlacklist=/Game/Genesis2/CoreBlueprints/Environment/Mutagen/PrimalItemConsumable_Mutagel.PrimalItemConsumable_Mutagel would prevent mutagel from being produced in the terminal
|
DistributeFertilizerRange | 30.0 | > 0.0 - 100.0 | range to distribute fertilizer to plots. Value is foundation lengths |
DistributePelletRange | 30.0 | > 0.0 - 100.0 | range to distribute pellets to Gachas. Value is foundation lengths |
IncubationMultiplier | 2.0 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for fertilized eggs incubation |
OviBonusMultiplier | 1.5 | >= 1.0 | Multiplier for Oviraptor egg/poop interval bonuses |
PickUpableEggsOnly | false | false/true | terminal will only pick up eggs that are able to be picked up |
PoopConvertSpeed | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for dung beetle poop conversion rates |
TerminalAutomationFuel | N/A | short blueprint path of fuel:amount of fuel to be consumed (see Item IDs, separated by comma) | Creates a fuel requirement for all automation. Example: TerminalAutomationFuel=/Game/PrimalEarth/CoreBlueprints/Resources/PrimalItemResource_Gasoline.PrimalItemResource_Gasoline:6 would make the terminal require gasoline as fuel
|
TerminalEggMultiplier | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for egg generation rates |
TerminalHoneyMultiplier | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for honey generation rates |
TerminalMiscPoopMultiplier | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for misc poop generation rates |
TerminalNeedsPower | false | false/true | Automation features will require tek gen power if this is used standalone, otherwise optional if fuel is defined. |
TerminalPassiveMultiplier | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for passive generation rates |
TerminalPoopMultiplier | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for poop generation rates |
TerminalWoolMultiplier | 1.05 | > 0.0 | Multiplier for wool generation rates |
