💡 AI & Behavior

• Animal behavior reworked around per-species profiles for appetite, fleeing, foraging, hunting, idling, schooling and enrichment
• Hunting is now phased: animals ambush, stalk, pursue, hunt in packs, call out to each other, observe and break off a chase
• Smarter targeting: animals skip herdmates, only go after prey, and decide whether to attack based on relative size, hunger, aggression and herd size
• Hunger, thirst and stamina are tracked separately from breeding; gestation, breeding cooldown and the father's genes now have their own system (existing saves keep their data)
• Animals flee earlier from larger threats, and bolder animals hold their ground longer
• Hunt detection range depends on the size of both animals
• Fixed animals not recognizing threats that were targeting them
• Animals scatter during thunderstorms
• Carnivores smell a player holding a Rafflesia from 40 blocks away and walk over to it, then lose interest for a while once they reach it

• Fish and other schooling animals now form natural flocks of up to 50

❤️‍🩹 Performance

• Faster rendering for machines, feeders, cameras and generators
