[Mods] Ability to switch to Classic Flyer stats

Flying Penguin

The stats calculator now has the nerfed stamina etc. Many people now use the classic flyers mod instead. It would be nice if there was an option to be able to switch the stats calculator to the pre-nerf stats. Thank you!!

Heya. Thanks for the suggestion!

Unfortunately, this would be very complicated to do. I'll see if there's a lot of demand for this, but it'd require a significant amount of effort to build this.

Dan Leveille: Perhaps there is a way to upload an older version of the app and include the newer dinos into it?

Dan Leveille

Zach James: No, then all of the features would be outdated. And all dino data is controlled remotely -- so the old versions of the app would include the newest data.

Dan Leveille: 
I thought it would be an option in the settings to enable it.
All dinos would have a "modifier" of some sort added to every stat that is different in the old-style flyers (I know about stamina, but that's all I know for sure).  By default, that modifier would be 1 if a multiplier, 0 if an adder.  If Classic Flyers is enabled in the settings, those modifiers would be updated based on the data used in Classic Flyers.  Then the dino data could still come from an external source, and be just as accurate as it is today.  Having Classic Flyers enabled in the options wouldn't change that data at all.  It would add to it (or multiply it).
