Currently civs can raise only one kind of domestic animal at their corral. Moreover, they all have the same cost, health, and amount of meat. Both points are unrealistic.
In reality the big four (goat, sheep, pig, cattle) had already spread throughout the Old World in the Stone Age and in our time frame were available practically everywhere; it was not an either-or situation; each animal had a somewhat different function.
This patch therefore:
- enables all four animals at all corrals; the Mauryas have a zebu instead of an ordinary cow, and cart, kush, ptol sanga cattle
- gave them different stats:
- cost:health ratio is 1:1
- cost:meat ratio is 1:2
- four goats approximately equal three sheep or two pigs or one cow
This should make the game more interesting (especially for players who like biodiversity and choice).
The values are just a first proposal and can be adjusted, of course, especially if and when resource (re)generation (D1718) is in.
