This is a small mod that allows you to store dinos as items, similar to a Pokéball! By removing tamed dinos from the world, you can maintain a large collection of stored dinos without affecting server performance! No more lag-inducing dino pens or enclosures! Dino Storage respects tribe and server taming limits when releasing, but allows for a large collection of stored dinos that do not count against your taming limit. The mod is fully customizable via the INI file, making it easy to balance for PvP or PvE use!

Dino Storage V2 is a mod for ARK: Survival Evolved that enables the storage and care of tamed creatures. This mod replaces our Cryopods with "Souls," and with the Soul Terminals, a replacement for the Cryofridges is provided.
- Terminals: There is a limit of 12 Soul Terminals, each with a maximum of 144 slots. Souls can also be stored in other structures, but care should be taken not to store more than 300 Souls in one inventory, as larger amounts may cause your ARK client/game to crash, and you will then only be able to rescue the Souls into a smaller inventory using the SS Transfer Tool. This should also be understood as a request to delete any unnecessary animals in Cryopods and/or Souls.
- No expiration date (for now) + XP: One advantage is that the Souls currently have no expiration date and do not need to be specially cooled. We will maintain this as long as the number of Souls does not get out of hand. Additionally, animals receive slightly more XP than if they are left outside.
- Unpacking: There is no Cryotimer when unpacking babies. Additionally, an option has been activated so that if animals are unpacked within your own base (from ~55 structures within a 10 foundation radius), no Cryotimer will be started.
- Packing: Furthermore, the timer has been reduced from 5s to 3s.
- Newborn Autotrap is activated: The best feature is that each tribe can configure a terminal that automatically packs newborn babies into these Souls and stores them there.
- Operation of the Soul Traps: Press N to change the order, R to take the next Soul in hand, and hold R to receive an empty Soul.
However, it remains true that offline breeding conducted with SS Hitching Post or similar tools is not allowed. However, the use of the SS Hitching Post for raising young animals is permitted. Fertilized eggs will continue to be collected via the SS Hatchery, and the collection of Gacha Crystals, poop, and similar items will be done through the SS Item Collector (meaning the other automations of the mod are currently disabled).
Otherwise, we will keep the Souls as close to the known Cryopod functions as possible, as we are still a survival server with PvP enabled (for example, there are currently no Soul Guns). It is still being considered whether the packing timer should be reduced from 3s to 1-2s, whether the distance to the base with 10 foundations should be increased to 25 foundations, and whether the Soul Gun should only be allowed on home maps.
In the shop, there will be a few Souls as a "welcome gift," and it will...
