Walls breaking?

[hi]

Do animals attack walls?
My animal enclosure KEEPS opening up, these plank walls keep on disappearing?

Am i missing something?

Same thing here, My Crude walls are just randomly vanishing, and so did a table and stool. only seemed to happen after i found 3 pigs.

i think " barbed wire fence " is the only wall that animals won't destroy, didn't try myself yet

I used barbed wire fence and they ate right through it to my log walls and ate through those too sadly.

Basically they use same mechanics as zombies. If object is "Thumpable" they can destroy it when stressed or if they want to wander off. One can try some mods that make some walls unbreakable, if these are good against Z's they will also work with animals, because their attack in game files is "Thump".

You can change this yourself by going to media/scripts/entities/walls/ and editing file for corresponding wall type, by changing "isThumpable = true" to "isThumpable = false". This will only affect newly build walls, not the ones that exist already.

Personally, when i see animals trying to break my pen's fencing, i punish this with butcher hook immidately. Where are many more animals out where, and if some can't behave - cull them.
