For newbies who can’t make veggie cakes, just kidnap the snail things with a Petradon and drop them in a 3x3 foundation circle with the middle foundation not there and fences all around the middle.
It’s not as efficient as taming them, but you’ll have them when you need them to tame!
There should be longrass-bread (cornbread) in Ark. Put longrass and oil in a preserving bin and wait, then you have dried longrass. Then grind it up in a mortar and pestle and you have longrass flour. Then mix with water in a campfire and you have cornbread! Should keep a long while and fill a lot of hunger. This would be awesome. Up so Developers can see!
!!! EASY CEMENTING PASTE - GET THIS POST NOTICED!!!
Great tame for getting cementing paste. Tame - put in wooden cage - enable wandering - collect 100 CP every 30 mins or so.
Or as no one else seems to have noticed, once tamed and caged and placed on wandering, exit game, load back up check snail inventory and collect 100 CP - exit game - load game - collect 100 CP - repeat until bored or have more CP than you know what to do with.

One of the best ways by far to collect paste if you use the S+ mod. Tame a ton of them (12 is how many I have. It’s a little much...). Use the S+ Collector to passively collect their pasty poop, and regularly pull all their inventories. To keep them fed, use an S+ Tek Feeding Trough and set it so that only Achatina’s will eat from it and fill it with cake.
I don’t worry about paste now. Day 780 something on the server and have a surplus of about 80,000. This method is ideal with S+ (as most of us use it). However, regularly checking their inventories will also yield more than you’ll need.
