Wrote this script to calculate the best stats for creature offspring in the game ARK: Survival Evolved
.
It also works for ARK: Survival Ascended
.
Run in an interactive window or a python terminal to show the plots and use the functions.
To show an example for all stats of Megatheriums (if they exist in ARK_dinos.txt
), run:
py ARK_creatures.py
Running Best_Creature('Rex')
in a python terminal will show a plot for each stat as well as return information on the form:
Best Health was 8360.0
['CeM224_1'] had this Health
Best Stamina was 2100.0
['Funknown'] had this Stamina
Best Oksygen was 705.0
['M145W216'] had this Oksygen
Best Food was 15300.0
['F150W224'] had this Food
Best Weight was 870.0
['CeM224_1'] had this Weight
Best Melee was 391.0
['F150W224', 'CeM224_1', 'RaM224_1'] had this Melee
The best Rex will have the stats:
[8360.0, 2100.0, 705.0, 15300.0, 870.0, 391.0]
Full overview:
Health : ['CeM224_1']
Stamina : ['Funknown']
Oksygen : ['M145W216']
Food : ['F150W224']
Weight : ['CeM224_1']

Rewrite the files ARK_dinos.txt
and ARK_tools_taming.txt
to contain your own creatures and tools, using the existing examples as a template.
(Make sure the dino names for a specific dinotype don't contain copy's to make them distinguishable).
