Now that's just harsh. I sleep for 2 days, then comeback to find my charcter on 2 health, and that the one wolf he had almost killed has become 7! And another character has suddenly found 12 horses! Lethal animal boom...

It looks like the "normal" animals are reduced but not the agressive ones. No I am facing with 15 boars in a city without buildings, and there are still 7 wild boars left on another place.

The only thing that has changed are the cows in Sil. They went from
almost 200 to 10. That was a bit overdone. Almost less then before the boom lol :lol: .

Sorry. I hestiated to do anything about it at all but... The server has to be preserved and that was the quickest way. Many areas went straight up again since there were packs of 9 animals arriving from different directions.

I was thinking about addressing the travelling animals next time.

lol, no prob meh. Seen the way the populate, they will soon reach the 100 again.

Couldn't you do something about the agressive animals like the boars :twisted: they keep attacking me individuale. And they multiply fast as well. There are now 17 boars in one city :shock: ... and me shield isn't that effective.

There were 12,000 groups of animals last time I checked.

I would have to address each agressive animal type.

Not much I can do until the code is changed but artifically limit the numbers.

The turn is running over an hour again. So when it finishes, I will have to do more.

There were 68685 animals.
Travelling packs of animals had thier size reduced to 1.
There are 35149 animals.

That should hold for a day.

Yeah the only thing that annoys me that it seemed that each time an animal arrived, the server slowed down.

Today i just saw that i wasn't travelling alone, thats right, there was 3 packs of raccoons, 2 packs going the same way as me and the thrid in the opposite direction, why didn't anyone tell me i could attack all three packs?......Also, i think this is a good way to put animals that live in one area, so that way all the packs of animals can be attacked
I was not intoxicated while I wrote this.

"I was thinking about addressing the travelling animals next time."

Yeah - it's a little crazy in some places, my one character in Kirrin forest has been dodging Buffalo's constantly for two or three days now. Probably 20 Buffalos come or go every day.

And I can see how it'd be bogging the server down, everything starts to drag with 0 progress - and worst of all you can't attack the animals! The "once a day" attack rule suddenly drags to a day and half, two days.
