... and thus to desertification. There should probably be a balance between grass and flower growth on the one hand and use by the animals on the other. But at the moment I unfortunately have to see that where I am as a player (in Rubodyke) there is a total overuse. More and more formerly overgrown dirt_with_gras remains as dirt after setting the spawnit command. Of course, I could help with fertilizer now, but I would prefer a long-term balance.

the amount of animals spawning right now is far from what is intended... hopefully change is soon. On test server I am not getting the huge accumulations that happen next to large protected areas all over main - just thousands of animals are built up - we'll have to come up with a way to clear that out somehow maybe.

the amount of animals spawning is too high, but a change to that is ready to go.

what's more important is that we need to limit the number of non-owned animals that can be stored in one area. the fix for that is also already in the works. this should be closed as a dupe, but i'm about to sleep and don't want to look up the other related issues.

So I wasn't so much concerned with the number of animals themselves, but with the inherently irreparable damage they cause. After I had completely slaughtered the animal world, the plant world was able to recover a bit. So for me, it's about a state of equilibrium. Whether this is achieved by simply fewer animals or by more predators or by NPC hunters, is not so important to me.
