As I was playing my most recent game I heard the sound of entities dying. Not the trapper “poof” sound but slain in combat. As it was daytime with with no undead and me being pals with goblins I couldn’t figure out what that sound was. Then I saw this goblin warrior racing across the camp like an arrow and started pounding on this poor neutral sheep.
To reproduce: Get shepherd, as sheep start spawning goblin warriors will seek out and slay them if they are close to their camp. Unsure how they behave to player tagged sheep under these circumstances.
well squirrels foxes and such are wild animals, whereas sheep are your livestock, and seeing as goblins destroy your stuff it would make sense for them to want to kill/steal you animals.
Well my view is this: Neutral sheep are not your livestock per se, i dont mind goblins killing my livestock, they are my responsibility to defendand the goblins should have an incentive to kill them. I wouldn’t even mind hearing the combat music activate if MY sheep were attacked. Thats why i compared them to wild squirrels and foxes.
hmm… i guess that could be a bug. its probably caused by the fact that sheep dont spawn until you have a shepherd, so the game might think that the sheep arent wild. course, thats just my wild guess.
