roadmap.

Animals near the player walk to their pen's feeders and troughs and eat and drink there a bite at a time, so the pieces empty as they are used. Feed heaps and water surfaces move smoothly to their new level, heaps shrink as they empty, and an optional sound plays when someone fills a piece. Far from the player, animals still eat and drink from the pen's stock automatically. If an animal cannot reach a feeder, it still eats from the pen's stock once it gets very hungry, so it does not starve while there is feed.

Crowding, a missing roof for species that want one, and sickness now hurt health. Happy animals heal faster. Animal Info lists what is wrong right now (hungry, thirsty, crowded, no shelter, cold, dirty pen, sick and more) and shows whether health is going up or down.

A Wild Range turns a forest or open land into a habitat with no fences. Wild herds there live off the land, breed while there is room and stay inside their range, and a range can keep itself stocked. Each species gets wild habits: active by day, by night or at dusk, how close it lets people come (walking slowly gets you closer), group sizes, and charges (for example only from the males).

Offer a tameable wild animal one of its taming foods to win its trust. At full trust it is tamed and follows you, so you can lead it into a pen, where it joins the farm. Events tell your game when an animal is tamed or when one charges. Your game decides what a charge does, because the plugin does no damage itself.

Start a herding job with a dog, a flock and a goal: a pen with a gate (your game opens it; the showcase's dog opens and closes them), or a place where the dog holds the flock. The dog gathers the strays and drives the flock in from behind, following a published shepherding model. If nobody is near to see it, the job finishes automatically, and an event fires when it is done. A job that makes no headway for a while (a closed gate, a fence in the way) is let go (Herding Stall Seconds).

Each animal has its own character: timid ones flee earlier and bold ones roam wider. Young animals stay close to their mother, and one frightened animal alarms the herd mates near it. Farm animals come when called, take shelter under their roof from rain, cold and heat, and nap during the day. Swimmers spend part of their time in the water. Sick animals walk more slowly.

Each animal can get one of its species' coat colours plus a shade of its own. Both reach its material close up and on its far-away instance, so a single material that reads them gives a varied herd. The young can wear a material of their own.

Tame Animal (instant taming, for a quest reward), Add Wild Animal from code, and Stop Herding (animals let go in a pen join it). In the showcase, C calls the animals, Ctrl sneaks and E offers food to a wild animal; the animal card shows problems, the health trend and trust.

17 stylized animals plus the farmer (24 meshes with the males), 5 stylized fish whose tails sway, and 76 cartoon farm props: 5 fence styles, 12 feeders and drinkers with their own surfaces, sheds, a stable, a cattle shed, a sty, a coop, a hutch, a kennel, sacks and tools. One master material each, and the buildings have LOD1.

Ready-to-use meshes and data for the duck, the sheepdog and the wild boar, fox, red deer, fallow deer, bear and bison, and tameable wild horses.

A wild forest, a sheepdog with its flock, wild horses to tame and a duck pond, all playable: the showcase now has fifteen stations.

One asset sets the colours, font, text scale and panel rounding of the example interface. Pens, water zones and inventory items get display names that can be translated.

Mesh offset and yaw settings for meshes with another pivot or facing, with root motion ignored. Thread-safe body values (speed, activity, in water, life stage) and a stage-changed event for your own Anim Blueprint. New Blueprint checks for an animal's flags and problems and for herding jobs, tooltips on the whole API, and herding jobs that stall are released.
