Cattle Rooster, Ordering ... All, but not on "Selection" o.O

[mvgulik]

So there is no direct and real easy way to put two animals/rows near each other for easy comparing.

A alternatively, and perhaps more interesting code wise, could be to highlight selected rows.

Or both ofc, if your up to the challenge.


(... Reordering while respecting the current order of the rows would be nice too ofc.)

Support. One could imagine lots of cool additions for the cattle roster.

I humbly petition again for displaying animal age in its own column. However, this would be much more useful if we could sub-sort by more than 1 column at a time. So, a sub-sort feature is the most important I think.

A 'notes' section for each animal that accepts 100 characters would also be fantastic, so that no one has any reason to name their animals 'MALE 2 #KILL FEB 18', or 'MQ% BREEDER #12'. One can't help but shed a tear for the animals throughout the Hearthlands suffering under the oppressive yoke of hearthling industry, unnamed and unloved. Seriously though, in the interest of aesthetics, please consider.

Actually, it'd be really nice if cattle roster data could be exported, edited with a 3rd party spreadsheet tool, and imported back into the game, but that could be a lot of work I guess.

Darn. Was planning to post those ideas randomly in the next 5 years or so.

(ps: Animal age(Growth stage) has its own and sortable column. [newborn & mature].)

Alas, the column you refer to does not supply a birth date or date of maturity.

From the linked thread:

Age until adult can give you important information on whether or not to keep breeding bulls while new ones grow up. Age past adult can give information on when the first pregnancy is likely to finish.

It's mostly the first one I care about.

Aha, I see. Same kind of time data/info on pregnancy and maturing stage's like the game has with, for example, maturing trees. Yea, that could be potentially useful too.

While where at it anyway.

Being able to recolor dead animals would be nice too. (if need be only if the carcass is still available)
