Hunting change

[TJ Pepler]

Hello, to begin, this is an incredible game and I am very excited to follow it and see where it goes.

I am suggesting that when animals take a certain amount of damage they will begin to bleed and they will eventually die from the wound (somewhere) as the animal is wandering around bleeding it will occasionally leave blood on the ground that a hunter can follow to find their prey.

Thanks

Interesting thought. Not sure I'd like it if it were universally applied, though. Bleeding out from a bear mauling would be realistic, but not sure it would be fun.

I wasn't so much thinking of applying a bleed to the player, just animals.  When I hunt in real life this is how it works, I shoot the animal and if I am on the ball it dies right away, sometimes however the animal will run off into the bush but it is bleeding and will die eventually, I will go to where I shot the animal and start looking for those blood drips and I will follow them to where the animal died and then the real work begins.

Would be nice to not have to chase and hope it runs into a lake

With regards to hunting I want to see better animal AI because currently you can crouch and keep shooting them from afar and they just obliviously eat the arrows.
