Modding dino stat change like Gigas - Higher wild, nerfed when tamed. Is it possible?

Hello! I’m wanting to adjust the stats of the WILD dinos on my server so that, in the wild, their stats are higher- specific dinos, really. Like ants would be weak, while Rex’s would be tanks- stronger, faster, harder to kill. But when tamed, their stats nerf down to more normal numbers, like how Gigas do. Basically I want to balance my server so wild dinos are harder and tamed ones aren’t overpowered unless you work really hard and breed, etc. Sadly with the normal config this is impossible to do- upgrading dino damage, health, resistance does so for ALL dinos, so bugs are horrific when turned up higher, creatures that should be weak. And it moves into tamed dinos stats as well, aside from resistance. So- Is it possible, and if so how would I do it? What do I need to change/adjust/add? Thank you!

Well, I’ve already done all this in my mod (Steam Workshop::Lore Friendly Realism Mod) as well as a whole bunch of other balances/realism/quality of life changes. But if you want a crack at it yourself, the files you’re looking for are the dino component files for creature base stats/stat per level/tame bonuses (located in primalearth/coreblueprints) and the Dino character BPs for damage, located in (primalearth/dinos/whichevercreatureyou’rechanging). There’s a whole bunch more useful settings in the other sections of coreblueprints, and a few in structures too, like the damage modifiers for buildings (I have rex and such smashing through wood in one hit). Have fun, PM me if there’s something else you’re looking for.
