    Okay, everyone hate squirrels, those little pesky m... Well... But it always feels weird to see all animals killing each others when one met them. Bears killing wolves, wolves killing boars, and everyone killing squirrels.

    Those aggressive behaviors between them add nothing to the game and aren't realistic at all (to be fair, most of those creatures should be passives vs humans too).

    Could you maybe manage to make them a bit less aggressives toward each others? Making forest and plain a safer place for them, and not a permanent bloodbath.

    Thanks!

    Squirrel and rabbits in scenes are actually there for a reason. They are there for design reasons, and work quite well. They also add a random element to scenes as well.

    Yeah, I'm not asking to remove them, I think you misunderstood what I was asking for.
    Which are?

    You don't think having them stand around and do nothing would be even worse? In real life, animals do kill each other in the wild.

    Yeah, but boars aren't supposed to kill squirrels. And that doesn't necesarly mean they have to stay at the same position forever doing nothing, they can wander a bit around their spawn (do they?), or is it the design reason Anpu was talking about?

    The every hostile animal will kill squirrels I’m going to assume is just because they have a very limited set of factions in the game.

    Of which, that’s something they are currently discussing.

    Must be well done, just like they eat rats in Naked and Afraid.
