Title: Wild Animals with Chronological Age
Post by: Alt on February 22, 2015, 05:49:57 AM
Just like the title says, I have noticed some animals have a chronological age, usually one year older than the biological age.

Is this a bug, or is it intentional?

Haha! I've noticed this also. Since it's a new feature just added, I'm guessing it's probably not intentional. But since it's not a game breaking thing, I just laugh at it and move on.

Of course, who knows. Maybe some of those animals have been kept in cryosleep for a while.

Maybe they hibernate?

That's a huge evolutionary leap where hibernation allows them to avoid aging for a winter.

It's a bug, thank you for reporting :)

I'll fix it.

Inter-species breeding with a cryptopod, perhaps? XD
