Did you actually implement the eagles? Can't find them anywhere. Pretty sure the only places I didn't look are all sorts of marshes, shallow/deep water.

Will fix that once variable materials can be instantiated in the client, at which point palisades, brickwalls, chests, crates, cupboards, &c&c will also gain variable materials. :)

Uh...are you sure about this? Last dev comment I heard on this was that having rainbow palisades would be crazy ugly as people don't really pay much attention to what wood they're putting in their palisade.
Amanda44 wrote: Yeah, that thought went through my head too I must admit, I was talking to Jordan about it this morning, I don't think it should include palisades tbh.

mats could be just based on initial cornerpost tho

^^ Yeah Sabi, that could work ... only I honestly think rainbow coloured palisades all over the place would just spoil the hearthlands.

As long as it wouldn't be a cypress / beaver one, I think it would be pretty neat.

^^ I haven't seen any yet but, mountains? I thought they prefer to nest on higher ground.

Ordinary snakes and sometimes goats, unless I was very unlucky.

Fair enough, fixed.

We did make them somewhat uncommon, but it does seem that they are maybe excessively so. Not sure why, tbh, but will considering bumping their frequency.

EDIT: Actually, it seems it wasn't their frequency specification that was wrong, but that there was actually a bug in their spawning code. Will restart with a fix.
