Wool length stat for sheeps and goats

[Saergof]

The new stat that determines the maximum amount of wool that animal can carry. Currently sheep can have no more than 3 wool. With such stat it can be, for example, 2 wool at 10 wool length, 4 at 40, 6 at 90 and so on - as per usual scaling formula.

they already have quantity so what are you saying exactly?

[Fierce_Deity]

Maybe he just didn't understand the mechanics for it.

[Saergof]

Quantity governs how fast the wool grows.

so what are you saying exactly?

I think that the maximum amount of wool that can be stacked on one animal can become a variable property.

[MagicManICT]

I thought the request was obvious. Make the "wool quantity" be variable like "milk quantity." I'm going to assume if this was changed the base would be smaller than 3.

Quantity governs how fast the wool grows.

honestly, I would prefer if both were increased with one statistic, this way people could avoid difficult choices like which one out of 5 good and similiar rams should be left alive... headaches from having to inspect 100 different animals are enough...

[Saergof]

Well, I personally find exactly that aspect of animal breeding enjoyable, having to work with different sets of stats and developing a criteria which makes statistics work towards you. But I do not insist it's the only legit way to feel about the system.

Do they? I don't think they do. They make it so that the animal produces wool faster, but I have yet to see a sheep *store* more than 3 wool in any given shearing. I believe what he's suggesting is that sheep should be able to increase their storage, not just their production rate.

Also, I love the way it works presently. That whole thing about 'having to choose between different animals' is part of what makes animal husbandry fun and engaging.

of course the same mechanic could be applied to amount of milk that a cow/sheep/goat can carry

[MadNomad]

wondering if this one is ever going to be implemented
