Description
UPDATED WITH NEW ARMOR TEXTURE, INCLUDING ARMOR COLOR REGION!

Platform saddles and mobile bases are pretty much the coolest thing about this game, but considering that it's a game about dinosaurs, I always thought it was kind of lame that the first dino you can get that has a platform saddle isn't a dinosaur at all, but a mammal! Paraceratherium.

Thus, I wanted to have a smaller sauropod dinosaur available to fill the same niche as the Paracer. So I added one of my favorite medium sized sauropods, Saltasaurus. It's 60% the size of a Bronto, and has all the same stats as a Paracer, except it is slightly slower and has slightly more stamina, making it great for a long-haul nomadic lifestyle. It also has the forward stomp attack of a Paracer as well as the tail swipe of its larger cousin.

The Saltasaurus was the first sauropod discovered to have such large osteoderms, or bony plates. It is theorized that these evolved to defend against attacks from large carnivores, which were more common due to Saltasaurus's smaller stature.

This is one of my favorite mods, i've used it for years at this point I think, an absolute necessity for all of my playthroughs.

I have seen that others are/had trouble crafting the saddle, that is not my problem. i have double engrams for the saddle in my inventory (the same saddle). but when i equip it the saddle is completely the wrong size- WAY to big. but at leas the creature is ride-able, even though i can't see around it. :steamhappy:

I love your mod, but please fix the bug with the smithy

Love it, but when you move the Salta, it starts to gradually bend into the death animaton and glitches. Only when you stop moving the dino goes back to idle stance. Love it, but fix please. Maybe its a bug on The Center but IDK.

Yeah I can't figure out why it doesn't show up in the smithy, both saddles are basically cabon copies of the Bronto ones. Sorry people.

The engram shows up in the player's crafting section, but you can't craft it, even when you have all the materials.
