I get tired of having to use a rope to move my animals within my pen just to get to a certain cow to milk. I got my wrist aching just by "leash animal, move, unleash animal" routine. A feature that allows me to "scare" those animals close to me so they move away and let me reach a certain cow would be nice. Some people say "just use fence doors to lock the cow's movements" but that's not my style, i prefer to let them roam free inside my pen (looks more realistic).
Another pain in the *ss is to fill those food troughs...a cool feature would be to let the animals "eat crops" directly. I mean, you make a huge fence, you plant carrots or beetroots inside, and let the animals eat those crops. When they ran out of crops you simply replant more.
a question: is there a faster way to fill up a food trough ? i mean, you fill up your inventory with fodder and then you must "shift + Right Click" repeatedly over it until full /out of fodder ?

...they should implement something like "shift + mouse wheel" over the trough or something like that to fill it more quickly.
