About this mod
This mod includes several fixes for the Species Viewer mode:
- issues with the game hatchery not releasing modded dinosaurs if they have been previously spawned in the 'Species Viewer' mode.
- Ansel not working in the species viewer or after leaving it.

Species viewer allows browsing dinosaurs without needing to fully hatch them. For this purpose, it modifies the game files in a way that the dinosaurs don't have all required game needs like life spectancy, simulation data, reduced animation set, etc.. When the user exits the Model Viewer everything is reset back to normal by the game (due to its 'release' and inmutable state) for the game files, and dinosaurs will again work in a normal game.
Mods however don't have that luxury of inmutability and the Species Viewer mode was changing some of their files, modifying the required information and affecting how they behave later in the game.
This Species Viewer Fix mod prevents the game from changing these mod files, and the result is animals working again in the game.
From version 1.1, the mod also enables Ansel mode to work in the 'Species Viewer' mode, and allows activating Ansel in a game after leaving this mode.
