The SS Egg Incubator is a structure from the Super Structures mod.

Overview

It has all the features of the  Egg Incubator but with some advanced features:

• The temperature is automatically set to the average temperature needed by the eggs placed inside.
• If the dino doesn't mean your stat criteria, you can choose to either destroy the egg or hatch and kill the Dino
• You can auto hatch dinos that meet your stat criteria.
• It can snap to foundations, ceiling or roofs (key G to disable).
• It can be renamed, to simplify its identification during the automatization process.

You access to the Settings in the wheel menu by pressing E.

You can force the hatching temperature in the wheel menu. If you enable the "Auto hatch" functionality, you don't need to set the temperature.

Settings

You can lay the eggs manually or send them automatically from a  SS Hatchery . See this page for further details.

"Egg Stat Optimization" enables the SS Egg Incubator to choose whether to keep an egg or not based on your selections. The parents of the egg must be alive and in the world somewhere (not in a Cryopod) for this to work.

The following logic applies to keeping or destroying an egg. Each stat is evaluated separately. This means if any checked stat or any unchecked stat falls into the ""Destroy Egg"" category, it will be destroyed.

If stat is checked:

• Better Stat with/without Mutations -> Keep Egg
• No stat changes -> Destroy Egg
• Lower Stat with/without Mutations -> Destroy Egg

If stat is unchecked:

• Stat Mutation -> Destroy Egg
• No Stat Mutation -> Keep Egg

The "Enable Auto Hatch" functionality will auto hatch babies. The Egg Stat optimization is performed first prior to hatching if you have it enabled.

The "Destruction" setting will control whether the egg is destroyed or hatched and killed as a result of the above logic.

INI Options

Place these INI options at the bottom of your gameusersettings.ini (For servers, it has to be on the server) 
You must include the [SuperStructures] header.
You only need to include this if you wish to override the defaults, and you only need to include entries that are different.

Name	Description	Possible Values	Default Value
DisableIncubatorStatSettings	Disables the Incubator's ability to auto hatch / do stat optimization	1-1000	350
EggIncubatorLimit	The amount of SS Egg Incubators that can be placed in an 80 foundation range (same type of setting as turret area limit) 0 means no limit	0-1000	0
IncubatorIncubationMultiplier	Multiplier for how fast the Egg Incubator Incubates egg (please note, the timer on HUD will not correctly change time to reflect this, instead it will count down faster)	0.1-999999	2

Notes

• While the Incubator model looks nearly identical to the original. It is slightly modified. The TV on the right side of the SS Egg Incubator is no longer angled out, but slightly pulled in and straightened out. This was changed so that snapping them side by side would not result in the TV extruding through the mesh of other Incubators side by side.
