🎯 Tips & Tricks
Taming use
Feed narcotics to a taming dino when its torpor drops; monitor the taming bar.
Crafting alternative
Combine spoiled meat and narcoberries in a mortar and pestle to make narcotics.
Spawn in bulk
Spawn 100 narcotics for large tames like Rex or Giga to avoid interruptions.
🔧 Troubleshooting
Torpor not increasing
Use narcotics on the dino's inventory, not force-feed unless necessary; check the dino's torpor.
Narcotics not spawning
Verify item ID 35; if using a mod, IDs may change.
