Doydoys in RoG

[monsieurJean85]

I found out recently by testing it via console that you can bring Doydoys from SW into RoG via Seaworthy (Spawned a Doydoy in my inventory. Spawned a Seaworthy, Jumped over to RoG. Doydoy still there. Released it and it started wandering about like they usually do, immediately going for the next berry bush). I have yet to incorporate this into an actual playthrough, though.

Have any of you done this yet? Is it worth the effort, just something fancy to do late game, or are they too much of a hassle to take care of to begin with? What would be their primary use be (Meat, Feathers for SW, bringing them over 1 by 1 to kill them for drops and instant Krampus)? I am currently unsure of how the game tracks the total number of Doydoys in linked worlds since I have yet to find info about it (There can be no more than 20 in one SW world AFAIK), specifically whether the Shipwrecked world and the RoG world are seen as separate, in which case one could have access to up to 40 Doydoys.

Each cave, ruin, forest, island, or volcano world counts separately.

Noted. So one could have up to 180 doydoys in a world, possibly even more since reaching the 20 doydoys cap only prevents them from breeding by themselves in that specific world.

I managed to find both doydoys in my current SW world, breed them a bit and bring over a couple to my RoG base. They are currently penned up near my base while I wait for mild season to start again in SW. The pen is laid out with wooden flooring and cobblestone to prevent eyeplants from spawning and I placed a bunch of traps inside in case a stray frog falls into the pen during frog rain (will have to remove them at the start of summer because of smoldering, though).

Apparently, Doydoys do not breed in RoG worlds during winter. I had three in their pen during an entire winter without them mating, then on the first day of spring I got a mating dance immediately.
