Smart Beetle

Description
Smart Beetle - Mod ID 718873660

Replaces dung beetle with a beetle that collects poop as it wanders around.

Toss the Smart Beetle in a fence with some other dinos and it will collect poop as it wanders around.
The beetle will only pick up poop if it will still be unencumbered after doing so - helping to ensure it will still be able to move and wander and thus be able to produce fertilizer and oil.

No stats or crafting changes were made to the beetle.

Note: Like the vanilla beetle - it will only function while not in stasis.

This mod remaps the vanilla Dung Beetle to a Smart Dung Beetles.
Beetles tamed before this mod is installed will not be converted - you will need to tame new beetles after they spawn in (They will have the name "Wild Smart Dung Beetle" )

After installing the mod, you will want to do the command 'admincheat destroywilddinos' to remove all dinos from the game and force respawn of the new beetles - or you can simply wait and over time smart beetles will replace vanilla beetles.

This mod is also part of the IronAge primitive enhancement mod found here:

If you have IronAge installed, you do not need Smart Beetle as well.

do they have to go up to the poop or is it a area like the troth?

doesnt work, or at least i dont see any smart beetles and used the destroydinos command. i did use the command to spawn dung beetles. is there a different command to make these ones spawn instead?
