Living Livestock System brings a Medieval Dynasty-style farm to your game. Animals eat at the feeders and drink at the troughs, sleep, grow up, breed and give products; their health follows how the pen is kept; stables get dirty and need straw; gates left open let animals escape, and wolves frighten the herd. Wild herds roam the forests, wild horses can be tamed, and the sheepdog brings the flock home. Fish grow in the ponds you farm and wait in wild rivers for your line. The whole farm keeps living while the player is far away, and costs almost nothing.
New in 1.1.0
Real hunger and thirst at the feeders and troughs, health from crowding, shelter and sickness, with the reasons shown.
Wild animals that live off the land in Wild Ranges, keep their distance and may charge; taming with food.
Herding dogs that gather a flock and drive it through the gate into its pen.
Coat colours per animal from one material, Interface Skin, localizable names, tooltips on the whole Blueprint API.
New example art: seventeen stylized animals, five fish, 76 stylized farm props (fences, feeders, sheds, stables, coops), and four new showcase stations.

A farm that lives everywhere
Every animal is a small record: 10,000 animals update in about a millisecond, on any part of the map.
Needs: food (grass first, then the feeds each species eats), water, rest, a roof at night or in the cold, comfort temperatures, room.
Health from crowding, a missing roof and sickness; the animal card says what is wrong.
Life stages from newborn to old age; a lifespan you can scale to short or long game years.
Breeding only in the best conditions and with room; the young are born in the pen and grow up.
Products: eggs laid in nests, milk, wool, manure, waiting in the pen until collected.
Dirt and straw bedding, feeders with their accepted feeds, troughs, roofs, nests, gates.
Skipping a day gives the same farm as living through it.
Animals that look alive
Near the player, pooled bodies driven by StateTree, EQS and DetourCrowd; farther, thousands drawn as instances.
Herds keep together, animals flee threats, sleep under their roofs, eat at the feeder and drink at the trough a bite at a time, swim, come when called.
Every animal has its own coat colour and character (timid or bold), from one material.
Habits per species (how long they graze, how often they eat, how shy they are) and sound sets (calls, eating, alarm, hurt, death, a hen after laying).
Fallbacks and watchdogs on every query and move, so a stuck animal recovers by itself; live statistics.
Fish farming and fishing
Ponds and tanks you farm, wild rivers and lakes: growth on feed and on the water's own food, water quality, spawning, predators, traps and nets.
Fishing with bait, by the hour (dawn and dusk bite best) and skill.
Water zones on any water: fit to a Water plugin lake or river, a mesh or a volume; the real shape and depth measured from the bed; fish swim at their own depth, in shoals.
For farming, survival, colony and RPG games
A Work API for your game's own AI: villagers and farmhands find, claim and do the farm's work, or do it on paper when nobody watches.
Lead animals home; return runaways; threats, feared actors, damage, "take from" (a creature feeding on livestock) and slaughter.
Wild Ranges for wild animals that live off the land, taming with food, herding dogs that drive a flock into its pen.
Open world first
World Partition: every farm lives on paper from the start, cells stream in and out, tested.
Navmesh only around invokers; pens need no navmesh at all.
Bodies appear only on loaded ground; far animals as one draw per species.
Plugs into what your game already has
Your inventory through one interface, your clock and weather through one class, your building system through one interface and one component, your save system through one block of bytes (or slots and autosave).
No UI and no input forced on you: Animal, Pen and Water Info for your own interface, and events for everything.
Ready for your game
Every species is a data asset: right click a skeletal mesh > Create Livestock Species.
All the numbers of all your species in one Data Table, editable as CSV.
Your meshes, animations, sounds, far meshes, StateTrees and EQS queries per species; Blueprint StateTree tasks.
Seventeen stylized example animals (swap in your own meshes and animations), five fish, 76 stylized farm props, and a playable showcase with fifteen stations.
