Wild animals occasionally spawn on the map according to the biome. These wild animals will wander and graze on vegetation. Growing food outdoors can sometimes attract animals to your base perimeter. Animals are an important source of food by the meat they provide once hunted and butchered.
Sometimes an animal may be driven mad by a psychic wave and attack any humans not behind closed doors. If injured by a colonist, certain species of animals will become maddened into a manhunter state and will relentlessly seek out humans to attack. Unless otherwise neutralized, a maddened animal will eventually return to a normal mood.
Hunting
Wild animals may be marked for hunting. Hunters will go out to hunt marked animals and will haul the carcass back to a stockpile zone.
To mark animals to be hunted use one of the following methods:
- Click Orders, Hunt, then click one or more individual animals.
- Click Orders, Hunt, then click and drag a box to surround and select multiple animals.
- Select one or more animals, click Hunt.
Taming
Any wild animal can be tamed by an animal handler with sufficient Animal skill and available food. Tamed animals may be bred, trained, traded, slaughtered, or farmed.
Wild animals may be marked for taming using the Tame button. An animal handler will attempt to tame marked animals. The chance to tame an animal depends on the animal's wildness and the handler's 'Tame animal chance' stat. This stat is determined by the colonist's animals skill, manipulation, and talking. When a handler fails to tame certain animals there's a small chance it will turn manhunter and start attacking the handler and others. Tamed animals will remain in or near the colony or they may be assigned to animal areas to contain them. Setting animal areas is usually necessary to restrict them from eating food not intended for them.
Tamed animals may be slaughtered using the Slaughter button. An animal marked in this way will be slaughtered by an animal handler. The handler needs not be equipped with a weapon.
Naming
The game names certain animals when tamed. Other animals have a chance to be named when they nuzzle a colonist. Names are always generated by the game and cannot be changed by the player.
Breeding
Animals are born by live birth or by hatching from a fertilized egg.
Female animals that give live birth become pregnant when a male animal approaches them and mates. Only tamed animals may breed. An animal's gestation period specifies how long a female's pregnancy will last.
| Early stage (hidden) | : Starts at 0%. This stage is not displayed but may be surmised by the vomiting it causes. |
|---|---|
| Middle stage | : Starts at 33%. At this stage Moving is reduced by 15%. |
| Late stage | : Starts at 66%. At this stage Moving is reduced by 30% and may include vomiting. |
Egg-laying animals include Cassowary, Chicken, Cobra, Duck, Emu, Goose, Iguana, Ostrich, Tortoise, Turkey.
Training
Tamed animals may be trained depending on their trainable intelligence. Access training
Obedience: (Training intelligence required: Simple) - An animal trained in obedience follows its master and will attack nearby aggressors. An animal's master is listed on the Training tab and on the Animals menu. The assigned master can be changed to another colonist with sufficient animal skill for that animal. Multiple animals may be assigned to a single master.
Release: (Training intelligence required: Intermediate) - Text here
Rescue: (Training intelligence required: Advanced) - Text here
Haul: (Training intelligence required: Advanced) - Text here
Needs
Animals require food and sleep and will fulfill their needs on their own.
Food: Animals will eat any available food according to their diet. Herbivorous animals of the colony can be left to eat grass on their own.
Rest: Animals will sleep as needed. Tamed animals will sleep in animal sleeping spots, animal sleeping boxes, or animal beds. If none of which are available, the animal will crash out on the ground inside its allowed zone. A tamed animal will not sleep as long as its master is drafted.
Trade
Tamed animals may be sold to traders. Animals purchased from traders will be already tamed.
Health
Animals have the same set-up as humans when it comes to health, minus the ability to operate on them. They feel pain, and have all of the different health stats that human pawns possess.
Life Stages
Animals all have three different life stages. Animals start out as babies, and some animals may have a specific name for this stage (e.g chick). They then move on to juveniles (teenagers). Finally, they reach the final life stage which is adulthood.
Animals List
Below is a list of all of the animals currently in this version of the game.
