Wild animals over spawning ?
so map has so many animals on it its pretty much just cover of nothing but animals.
is there some way to make wild animals not over populate ?

this does not seem to be issue with farm animals just wild animals. ? end up with just like two types and they just kinda take over whole map ?

undermines whole farm aspect of game, and there so many animals that iv been killing about 20 days and still cant get them under control.

there so much meat there not even any point in harvesting them i jsut let them rot just to many maps just covered in blood its bit redonkless.

it would be nice to have a lot of them, after hunting the populations in my area are very small (luckily I have animal farms anyways)

hi sound

I only have this issue early in game but latter on about 20 years in game years or so into game this dosnt seem to be issue any more.

I went through the wild animal tab and counted them me and wife stopped counting when we hit number around 250 it just none stop. probably 400 to 500 wild animals on on screen its causing performance issues.

there so many wild animals that I used them as cover to take out the mecoid pod things that drooped lol

I've never seen more than maybe 40-50 wild animals on a single map. Could it be a mod issue?

What biome are you using?

every game i play ends up like this after 25+ years in game.

that is just one corner of map all four corners look like that screen shoot of just one side of map.

i got 40 or so animal pre group but there like 40 groups

RimJobWorld?
Wild animals do breeding too.
Edit:
Older RJW versions had an option in settings to disable wild animals breeding. Maybe it's still has it.

they just spawn in. its werid like I had toxic plague event just five or four days before these guys spawned in.

but thing is its always just two types of animals that take over map its always two.

if i go in and wipe out all of deer for example a new animal just spawn in mass.

this time it just happens to be deer and the buffs.

I am running combat evolve so I have to make my ammo so killing them all is bit of resource issue sense you have to make your ammo.

-----------------------------------------

I was reading in the custom settings that scarlet plague is suppose to deal with animal over population ?

it actually says that in description when you setup a new custom game and highlight it.

but i thought that it only effected dead bodies to limit amount of food you get from animals in late game, not just live animals, so I do have that turned down

maybe ill turn it up and see what happens.

I have ran rim job in past but i am not in that game, I am running combat evolve so I have to make my ammo so killing them all is bit of resource issue.

Nah. You still have RJW active. I'm recognize the tabs and icons.
But if they just spawn as adults at the edge of the map, the culprit could be other mod.

yah they just wander in guess if u want call it that I just call it spawning in.

I am going like i said incress that scarlet plague in custom settings.

its description says or makes it seems like it deals with late game wild animal over population

meant scarcis or what ever it is.

Yeh, I'm noticed you mentioned the Scarlet plague... But tbh idk what's that, and ... Didn't found anything about that via Google, nor in workshop.. so I can't really say a word about that.
But I can suggest a (bit cheaty) workaround:
Enable devmode and use "Destroy" command on unnecessary wildlife poput.

when you go to new colony start new game pick any one of story tellers, and then go to custom settings

the settings in there and if you hoover over it talks a bout late game animal production and meat and that the setting suppose to balance the amount of meat you get due to late game animal abundance so that every one gets same amount of meat late game when you end up with high animal count.

way it is worded almost sounds like game in cress amount of animals available as game progresses and that rot that is added to game balance it so you do not get to much food form this to re balance game.
